** Bojack, for the most part, avoids it in this episode, aside from some moments here and there, like [[spoiler:insulting Mr. Peanutbutter over Diane leaving for Cordovia because she was tired of their marriage]] or briefly engaging on some UnsportsmanlikeGloating

** [[SpeakOfTheDevil Speaking of]] Creator/DanielRadcliffe, his AdamWesting here makes him a rather unsympathetic douche who not only has the stack and the game on his side, but also disrespects Bojack, not even bothering to remember his name despite having met before!!

** Mia McKibbin, Creator/JDSalinger's [[TheApprentice apprentice]] and sidekick behind the controls is dismissive, rude and condescending towards Todd through the episode. This is [[JustifiedTrope justified]] due to Mia being TheAce at what she does and seeing Todd as an annoying pest.

** [[spoiler: Todd becomes one at the end by scamming Mia into giving her Salinger's pen by faking sadness. Then, to hammer it home, he messes around the makeup department and flips off J.D. when he calls him out on it.]]
** Princess Carolyn, while not as bad, easily berates Bojack for his performance in the game show so far, while Bojack is clearly trying his best.
** This is probably the worst you've seen of Mr. Peanutbutter since "Our A-Story Is A D-Story", with the dog embracing all the tropes you can think of about sadistic hosts and deliberately setting the game in favor of Creator/DanielRadcliffe.
