* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome:
** [=BoJack=] goes to New Mexico in the hopes of finding Charlotte and living the happy life that she'd offered him three decades before, only to learn that in that time she's already married someone else and now has her own family. When you haven't seen old friends for a number of years, you can't just expect them to be the same person they were when you last saw them.
** [=BoJack=] eventually gets Charlotte to admit that she still has some feelings left for him, and they share a kiss. Charlotte, being happily married, instantly regrets this and refuses to leave her family to start a new life with [=BoJack=], and even tells him to leave their home to avoid tainting her life further.
** Learning that Charlotte is married and eventually having her reject him face-to-face doesn't allow [=BoJack=] to find any closure from his [[TheOneThatGotAway decades of pining after her]], and instead results in him almost sleeping with her '''''underaged daughter''''' [[note]]Though Penny notes that she's technically of consenting age by New Mexico's laws, [=BoJack=] is still over ''twice'' her age[[/note]]. Even though Charlotte is able to intervene before [=Bojack=] can sleep with Penny, she is rightfully '''furious''' and demands [=Bojack=] leave immediately, not at all interested in any apology or excuse and even threatening to kill him if he ever contacts any of them again. It certainly doesn't help that this occurred shortly ''after'' Charlotte rejected [=BoJack=].

When you haven't seen old friends for a number of years, you can't just expect them to be the same person they were when you last saw them.
