BoJack Horseman season 3

BoJack, Ana and Todd go on tour in New York City, where he meets playwright Jill Pill, who asks him to check on an associate of theirs named "Cuddlywhiskers". J.D. Salinger ends his game show, leaving Mr. Peanutbutter without a job, and he starts pitching costly, nonsensical business ideas again. BoJack almost has sex with a reporter against Ana's wishes and becomes uncomfortable, vaguely alluding to the incident in New Mexico and admitting his role in Secretariat is fake, which the reporter records. Ana learns of this and takes care of it, and after Secretariat screens to positive reviews, BoJack promises the audience that they are seeing the real him in the role.

In 2007, BoJack is dating Princess Carolyn, the secretary to his agent who later takes his job when he quits, and is refusing to take new roles, unable to move on from the success of Horsin' Around. Todd has his first kiss with his friend Emily and the two date, but he becomes uncomfortable when she posits the idea of having sex and flees her house when her dad comes home. Mr. Peanutbutter's second wife Jessica Biel leaves him, and he meets Diane while she caters an event he is speaking at. BoJack meets with Jill and Cuddlywhiskers, a hamster screenwriter, who writes a serious drama that BoJack plays the lead in, but becomes nervous when the executives compare it to Horsin' Around. He and Cuddlywhiskers give it a nonsense rewrite while high, rename it The BoJack Horseman Show, and premiere it, but it is poorly received and quickly forgotten about.

Jill asks BoJack to retrieve a love letter from Cuddlywhiskers' house, but he and Diane find an orca stripper dead in his pool. The use of BoJack's name in her last text lead him and Diane to believe he is being framed for murder, but they learn that "BoJack" is actually the name of a brand of heroin being distributed by a former Horsin' Around star, which the stripper overdosed on. Todd and Mr. Peanutbutter get sprayed by a skunk and end up setting fire to Mr. Peanutbutter's yard while trying to fix it. BoJack and Diane find Cuddlywhiskers in a hut up in Ojai, where he explains that he gave up his material desires after he felt nothing when he won an Oscar and dedicated himself to helping addicts. He advises them to give up everything if they want to be happy, advice which makes them both uncomfortable.

BoJack attends a film festival in the Pacific Ocean, where he is forced to wear a helmet that prevents him from speaking and cannot understand the native tongue. He spots Kelsey there for her new film and writes a halfhearted apology note for getting her fired; however, he is swept onto a bus by a school of minnows and taken out of the city before he can deliver it. On the bus, BoJack watches a seahorse give birth and leave one of his babies behind. BoJack forms a kinship with the infant and tries to return it to its father, a series of hijinks leading them through the deep sea and a taffy factory. He eventually gets it home and turns down the father's offer of money, but is saddened when he realizes he cannot tell which of the children is the one he rescued. He returns to the city to find that Secretariat is a big success. After seeing Kelsey leaving, he writes a heartfelt note about connection and gives it to her, but is horrified to see the ink has dissolved as she leaves. A human annoyedly tells BoJack to get out of the way by pressing a button on his helmet, and BoJack realizes he could have talked the entire time.
