-->'''Angela''': I'm not gonna waste your time with small talk, 'cause you work for me and your time is my time. We're letting Herb go.
-->'''Angela''' and '''[=BoJack=]''': I/You can't do that.
-->'''Angela''': I'm not asking you. It's nothing personal. I like Herb, I think he's a good guy, but this is a business, and every day we don't fire him, we're throwing money down the crapper.
-->'''Angela''' and '''[=BoJack=]''': Well, if he goes, you/I go.
-->'''Angela''': I wouldn't do that. [=BoJack=], I think you're a star, and sometimes, being a star means making tough choices. You could storm out make a big show out of what a "good friend" you are, or you could be the guy who does his job.
-->'''[=BoJack=]''': Angela...
-->'''Angela''': I'll tell you when it's your turn to talk again. Look, you're a star. But this is really just the beginning of the [=BoJack=] Horseman story. You could choose whatever path you want, but I'll tell you right now, you don't win awards, you don't get to be on the covers of magazines, and you don't get to play the lead role in the ''Secretariat'' movie by being a good friend. [[BaitAndSwitch What's that old expression about how the show must go on. Oh. Right. It's "Don't be an idiot."]] So what do you think, [=BoJack=]? It's a courtesy question, I already know what you think. [[ButForMeItWasTuesday I have conversations like this five times a day.]] I know who you are. I know you've already made your decision, but if you wanna surprise me, now's the time to do it.
-->'''[=BoJack=]''': ''[{{Beat says nothing}}]''
-->'''Angela''': That's what I thought. You're doing the right thing. I know it's hard, but if Herb's really your friend, he'll understand. Now, you've got a show to put on, so I'll let you get ready. This was a good conversation. Productive. If you're lucky, I'll never talk to you again.

* CowardiceCallout: Herb spitefully tells [=BoJack=] that he's a "selfish, goddamn coward" while giving him a ReasonYouSuckSpeech about the sad and thoughtless excuse for a person he is. All [=BoJack=] can do in response to the accusation is bitterly (and unsuccessfully) try to get in the last word.

--->'''Herb:''' You know what your problem is? [[JerkassHasAPoint You want to think of yourself as the good guy. Well, I know you better than anyone, and I can tell you that you're not. In fact, you'd probably sleep a lot better at night if you just admitted to yourself that you're a ''selfish goddamn coward'' who just takes whatever he wants and doesn't give ''a shit'' about who he hurts. That's ''you. That's'' [=BoJack=] Horseman.]]\\

* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: Herb already made it scathingly clear that he will NEVER forgive [=BoJack=], yet [=BoJack=] still insists on trying to get the former to accept it. In doing so he makes the situation much worse and didn’t get the message until Her ‘’fully’’ brings Bojack out of his house. And even until then Bojack just wonders why he went there, even though Herb knew EXACTLY the intentions.
