History Recap / BoJackHorsemanS6E06TheKidneyStaysInThePicture

* MultiEthnicName: Todd tries breaking into the White Whale building using Diane's pass. As soon as the security guard points out that the name doesn't line up with Todd's gender or ethnicity, Todd calls the guard racist, pointing out that [[NotHelpingYourCase he's white but has the last name Chavez]], (It quickly snowballs from there).

** To a lesser extent, Todd also holds a grudge against his parents for kicking him out and not calling for ten years, yet seems to forget they only did that because he was a LazyBum who just played video games and mooched off them well after high school (rather than go to college, get a job, or pay rent, or move out on his own), and he never even learned to stop mooching since he just switched to bumming off [=BoJack=] and then Princess Carolyn for years, ''and'' he never called them either. Sure, his stepdad was too strict with him growing up and his mother not only throwing him out but never calling or making sure he was okay for ten years was callous, but Todd still shows no remorse for the very mooching behavior that drove them to evict him in the first place.

The assistants of Hollywoo go on strike. Bojack tries to help Dr. Champ. When Todd learns that his mother needs a kidney, Diane comes up with a plan.

* FreudianExcuse: Horse characters have been extremely uncommon throughout the run of the show, with even background character horses being a rare sight. Doctor Champ confronts Bojack with the idea that Bojack is explicitly going out of his way to avoid contact with horses because they remind him of his parents.

* HidingBehindTheLanguageBarrier: Jorge's plan to get both he and Todd inside the White Whale building relies on this; Todd hides inside a garbage can while Jorge, pushes it to the door pretending he's a janitor who only speaks Spanish. Fortunately, the security guard doesn’t understand a word of Spanish, so he just lets Jorge go inside so he wouldn't hold up the line any longer.

* SaveTheDayTurnAway: Platonic parent variant that is played with. When Jorge asked if Todd would like to see his mother, Todd is averse to the idea, and plainly states that she has his number and leaves the hospital.
* ShoutOut: [[Recap/RenandStimpyAPC1x02RenSeeksHelp Dr. Champ isn't a therapist, he's just a horse]] (a ''[[InsistentTerminology therapy]]'' horse). He even says "I'm a horse!" as justification for being unable to help Bojack.

* UngratefulBastard: Played with, Dr. Champ and Bojack part on negative terms as Dr. Champ fully blames Bojack for his downward spiral back into alcoholism despite the fact that Bojack did everything in his power to try and protect Dr. Champ's secret and get him sober again. As a side-effect, his career and marriage are both likely ruined. Bojack for his part does not dispute his role in all of this since technically, his holding on to the contraband vodka that Dr. Champ mistakenly drunk led to all of this in the first place.
* YouAreWhatYouHate: Drunk Doctor Champ helped Bojack realize he has an internalized hatred of horses due to his parents (pointing out that all his friends are humans, cats, and dogs) and feels the need to be punished but, due to his position, never gets punished, which spirals things. Bojack tries to refute this, pointing out his relationship with Hollyhock, only for Champ to point out that Hollyhock doesn't represent his parents, she represents the horse he hates the most: himself.

Fortunately, the security guard doesn’t understand a word of Spanish, so he just lets Jorge go inside so he wouldn't hold up the line any longer.

* HeelRealization: On the cusp of total victory over the assistants, Princess Carolyn suddenly realizes that she's doing the same things to them as were done to her as an assistant. So she slips them [[HypercompetentSidekick Judah's]] number so the assistants can actually get some deals out of the strike.

* BitingTheHandHumor: PC describes the practice of allowing TV creators to have [[VanityPlate vanity plates]] in the credits only to sell their shows to streaming services that auto skip credits as essentially scamming said creators. Netflix of course is one of said services, and their autoskip has become a point of controversy with some creators.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Todd's stepfather isn't wrong that Todd is a lazy, irresponsible, unmotivated freeloader who just coasts through life without any effort or forethought, [[BornLucky just expecting things to work out for him]]. However, even he points out at the end that they usually do... because he's [[DoubleStandard white]].
