* AnAesop: [=BoJack=]'s upbringing had put a negative impact on his life but sometimes, stated rather bluntly in Todd's rant, a FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse.

** Mr. Peanutbutter's false nominees would not go unnoticed by the Oscar executives, especially after he nominated ''{{Film/Avatar}}'', which debuted at the end of 2009.
** Why didn't [=BoJack=] get an Oscar nomination? The rules for the actor awards state that the actor must appear on-screen during the movie. However, [=BoJack=]'s role in ''Secretariat'' used a CGI model. Of course, this fact was supposed to be a secret, but it's possible the Academy noticed anyway and disqualified him.

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: The main lesson of the episode. Todd tells Bojack point blank that he can't make things more difficult for other people because he's experienced trauma and uses said trauma to get away with his actions. He had every opportunity to get better but never put up the effort. In the end, ''[=BoJack=] himself'' is the reason why [=BoJack=] is so screwed up to this day.
