History Recap / BojackHorsemanS4E06StupidPieceOfShit

A look at [=BoJack's=] InnerMonologue as he deals with having both Hollyhock and Beatrice living with him. In the meantime, Princess Caroline is forced to team up with her former rival Rutabaga Rabbinowitz to set up a sham marriage between Todd and Courtney Portnoy.

* WhatTheHellHero: [=BoJack=] gets jealous of Doll and takes it from Beatrice then throws it out the window, traumatizing her, to which all Hollyhock can say is a disappointed "Why did you do that?".

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Beatrice calls [=BoJack=]/"Henrietta" a "waste of her husband's jism", which [=BoJack=] interprets as proof that Beatrice knows who he is (interpreting to remark to mean "my son"), but makes more sense come episode 11, when it's revealed that Henrietta was Beatrice's maid who Butterscotch had an affair with.

* ArtShift: The inside of [=BoJack=]'s head is shown as crude drawings.

* TheDogBitesBack: Still angry at his mother for a lifetime of abuse and now even angrier that she's too demented to remember him or for everyone to see how cruel she could be, Bojack finally reaches his RageBreakingPoint and throws Beatrice's [[CompanionCube doll]] over the edge of his deck, convincing her that [[YouBastard he killed it]].

* OpeningShoutOut: When Bojack tells himself that he's going to destroy Hollyhock, he imagines her falling backwards into his pool as he does in the opening.
* PetTheDog: Inverted, as it's the dog petting the horse. In a rare instance of genuine empathy, Mr. Peanutbutter reassures Bojack that he deserves to be loved, whether he believes it or not.
* SidetrackedByTheAnalogy: As seen above, Bojack acknowledges that it's suddenly night time, which trails off into remembering an old sitcom, which then trails off into more self-hatred.
