*AUDIO* Bojack Horseman Final Scene with Diane

I couldn't find this full scene anywhere, and I couldn't actually record it either! This is the final scene in season 6 with Bojack and Diane up on the roof. Enjoy!

Their relationship was obviously toxic, they did bring out the worst in each other, but I still think it was the most genuine in the show. The fact that they can only let each other go once they assure that they’ll be okay on their own shows how much they simply cared and deep down just wanted to look after each other. Rarely a show’s most emphasized relationship is one of the most appreciated in the fandom, utmost admiration to the show runners for nailing the dynamics.

[@rosielow527]

I think it shows how much he matured throughout the show, that he didn’t beg for her forgiveness like he did with Herb. He accepted that she’d never really forgive him, and he just appreciated their final night together.

[@jonnil1997]

[@lujorom9172]

I also really like how he didn’t end it on a sad note, but how he made an effort for both of them to feel good about each other (sort of), by ending everything on a funny story. That’s actually nice of him in a way.

[@xtzyshuadog]

*and the song that plays out is everything either character could've said to the other*

[@Sammie_Sorrelly]

We see how much he's matured, but the crux of the whole episode is everyone's looming awareness that he's just as capable then as he's ever been of doing terrible things, of fully relapsing into his worst self. Several characters throughout the show, including Diane, have expressed the need to get away from Bojack and the part of themselves that resonates with him. The finale represents a moment in time where those characters have the clarity and resolve to express that to him directly and set those boundaries, and Bojack has the clarity and humility to respect that. "You never get a happy ending, cause there's always more show. I guess until there isn't." The characters that put up boundaries in the finale between themselves and Bojack in this episode, with varying degrees of reluctance, do so knowing that if they meet him again in the near future it'll almost certainly be because they've relapsed in their healing, or Bojack has - realistically, it's more likely to be the latter - and whichever it is will likely take the other down with them. A happy ending, for any of these characters, means successfully actively resisting their unhealthy habits and coping mechanisms every day for the rest of their natural lives.

I love how Diane shut Bojack down when he tried to throw his emotional labor onto her. Maybe it's harsh to say this, but unloading on someone like that without warning and expecting them to take the time to help you through it is insensitive. I'm glad they showed her setting a boundary.

[@karmalotus22]

It's not harsh. I've done that before to a lesser extent, and I don't blame people for pulling away. Boundaries are very valuable and need to be enforced no matter what.

[@laela6289]

Yup

[@declanharvis459]

I think it's just because he does it so often. If a friend is in need and does that then it doesn't take much out of you to give them an ear or emotional support. It's not hard to do, it's friendly, and it's worth more to them than it costs you as long as they're not emotionally dependent on you. But if someone becomes emotionally dependent on you - that's what's toxic. And she's started to realise that she does have a toxic relationship with him and he looks to her way too much for validation and emotional support etc. Plus the fact he tried to make her responsible for his life - in a literally sense. that if he died it would be her fault. so that's very obviously a very toxic relationship. I think it's just striking a balance between being there for someone you care about and not allowing that person to suck the life source out of you - especially if they have a narcy/ codependent personality

[@kevinmccabe3984]

Eh. I don’t think Bojack was trying to work through anything actually. He just wanted Diane to respect his decision. I don’t think he regretted horny unicorn. It was basically his only option after the world cancelled him. Vance was a bad dude but at least he gave Bojack some reason for optimism

The series begins and ends with Bojack and Diane’s relationship. Literally. They meet at the end of the pilot, and the end of this final episode marks the end of their association, for better or worse. Obviously the show became much more than that, but I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this structure was in place.

I just realized that this scene is very similar to his reunion with Herb. At first there's a lot of bitterness and awkwardness, which eventually culminates in a more casual conversation and humorous anecdotes, ending in a heartfelt admission about enjoying each other's company ("It was good to see you again, BoJack"/"It's a nice night, huh?"). The main difference is that unlike what happened with Herb, BoJack doesn't try to force Diane to forgive him. He lets her go, as uncomfortable as it is and as hard as it will be to lose her. He understands that he was a toxic person in her life and as much as they'll miss each other, she's better off without him and he respects that. His flaws are still very present even in this scene, but it's amazing how much he's grown since Season 1.

[@annewagnera7567]

“I am glad you are alive” “I am too.” It is a simple line but it shows how much Bojack has grown and even though he knows he has done bad things, he deserves to be alive and deserves to be happy.

In my perspective this is just a way for them to actually enjoy their last final moment.

Diane listens and for a single minute, theyre the closest friends in the entire planet like they used to be. And when the conversation ends and one of them has to leave and say "goodbye" none of them wants to do it, they want to stay friends forever but it isnt possible, they have to stand up and leave the other behind, in their past.

In retrospect, this is such a SATISFYING catch 22. They spent the whole show on a FAKE "will they or won't they". The show pretended to develop a relationship when in reality they already had one. That relationship being that they were both stunted people who never really grew up past a certain age, and so felt left behind and alienated. They resolved to help each other out out of mutual understanding. A bromance basically. And that bromance built on not having a place in the world came with a catch. If one of them ever found what they were looking for, it falls to the other to respect it. In this case, she knows she can't stick around anymore, and he knows that she found something that you just can't interfere with.

I've since cut both people out of my life and while things have been better, I still mourn the loss of those I hurt. But what's done is done, and they have every right to not forgive me.

5:16 my former best friend tole me a few months ago that she wanted to stop being friends, she met new people and didn’t really have any interest in me anymore even though we knew each other for almost 7 years. I was really sad at first but now I look at our friendship kinda like this, we had a great time knowing each other and sulking about that being over isn’t gonna help. I don’t know if we’re ever gonna be friends again and I’m okay with that, life is too short to put energy to stuff like that and I really think this episode showed that. You can stop being friends with someone but till liking that person, it’s ok. I don’t know why I wrote this rant lmao, thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Its really, really funny because I'm going through the exact same thing as of the moment with being friends with someone for 7 years and I'm struggling with thinking and trying to come to terms that I might lose my friend of 7 or so years for.. maybe a really long time because I'm the one who set my foot down when that friend kept comparing to other people theyve met and keep reminding me how they've ranked me lower in their friends list because I guess Im boring and disconnected from them now and they keep lashing out at me over their own failed relationship but I really.. really realized that that kind of treatment didnt sit right with me. I thought I did something wrong. That I was a the problem. But nah, I did all that I can by being honest and upfront. They just didnt cooperate and dismissed it.

Just realized that Diane is just more complex version of Charlotte.

[@noahh6186]

I would argue that Charlotte is just as complex, it's just that her complexities don't challenge Bojack. She clearly has a complicated emotional life and a lot of issues, between her regret over the incident with Penny and just being around Bojack in general, but we only see them together a few times when she's completely matured so it's hard to feel how her complexities are directly linked to Bojack, whereas Diane interacts with him so often specifically at his lowest, that we see the pain and struggle every single time.

[@heartnet40]

An underrated part of this ending is that Bojack subtly gives Diane permission to finally let him go. The whole time you can tell shes ready to walk away crying because making that choice is very painful for her and knowing that her last memory of Bojack is an emotionally taxing one probably doesn't help either. And then Bojack tells her his funny story. Its only kinda funny, but its funny in the ways only he and Diane really understand and Bojack makes Diane laugh. Bojack gave Diane the relief she needed to finally let him go and interestingly he did it through being entertaining. I guess at the end of the day, its nothing but heartwarming that her last memory of Bojack is him comforting her like he used to on Horsin Around all those years ago. And I hope Bojack is very proud of that, that was the most selfless thing he could do for someone he hurt so much.

[@Starpotion]

As sad as it is, I like to imagine that Bojack frequently forgets or doesn't realize he genuinely is a talented actor and knows how to uplift people through entertainment. It's definitely not a coincidence that he's frequently responsible for some of the best incidental humor in the series which was his bread and butter in Horsin' Around.

“And… it’s going to be okay… and..” I swear to God after everything, hearing Diane say those words for some reason always leaves me holding back tears. I’m legit trying to not start sobbing rn as I’m writing this.

[@Guilmonhero]

2:45 - 2:54 Bojack: "I'm sorry." Diane: "I wish I could've been the person you thought I was, the person who would save you." Bojack: "That was never your job." Diane: "Then *why* did you *always* make me feel like *it was?*" This ties back into this show's and Diane's entire theme of "your responsible for your own happiness" and why relying on others to be the ones to do it for you *all the time* is bad. There's a reason why she emphasized *always* when she told that to him, because that amount of pressure is not good for anyone and it makes life hard for everyone involved for doing so. Then comes the hardest part, cutting yourself off from someone you know isn't really THAT bad of a person, but their behavior and terrible decisions is just too much and too draining to keep hanging around them and if they crossed a line while doing so it's better to let go of them. But I think what makes it interesting is that Diane and Bojack decide on how their relationship should end and affect them in the long run. And if you're looking for the subtle cues that show has been trying to teach you, you can see that.

[@DiloConHelio]

The harshest commentary BoJack Horseman delivered about mindfulness is how often sad people orbit towards each other not for bonding but to validate their respectives miseries. And that understanding how toxic these kind of relationships will get makes the difference between looking for a change and giving up. And all this matter is so adult it makes me want to floss and run errands or something.

[@Meisaims]

Bojack says it'd be funny this was the last time they talked; Diane's reaction is enough to say it will be. She then thanks him and rises. Something just hit me when Bojack then stops her to tell her about the Pieces of April story in prison. He just wanted to stay with her for that little bit longer and have a light hearted conversation. That one last moment to share with her. It's just those little details... It kinda makes it feel like a non-point now I've typed it out. But just the context of how he loves her and she's always on his mind in his most dire circumstances etc, and now he's accepting of her happiness. It hit me in the moment.

And it hit harder, knowing that the last conversation I had with said former friend was during the night as well.

Whenever I slept over my exes house, we’d play this audio to fall asleep to because it was dark and we loved Bojack Horseman. Looking back, this audio hauntingly beautifully predicted our entire relationship and it’s demise. I was so much like Bojack without the drugs. I was a narcissist, I was controlling, I was manipulative. I came from a broken home with a family who I never thought loved me. I loved my ex so much but I couldn’t stop hurting her and myself, similar to Bojack and Diane. She finally let me go, and realized that it wasn’t her job to fix me or change me. She’s moved on and I’m so happy for her, I just can’t help but think about the nights we’d listen to this audio together, that was ultimately predicting our fate.

[@TheNpcsim]

This scene honestly broke my heart. I hoped for the entire 6 seasons that Diane and Bojack would end up together, but it ended with her saying goodbye. I realized after this, though, that it was for the best that they never did. Bojack was terrible to Diane, and Diane was way too codependent on Bojack that it would have only screwed her up more. She managed to grow after she went to Chicago, and find herself and realize that Bojack was never good for her. Bojack used Diane, and hurt her way more times than I can count, but he managed to find redemption, and hopefully changed for good this time. Diane was right in saying " I think there are people that help you become the person you end up being, and you can be grateful for them, even if they were never meant to be in your life forever." even though this is the end for them, and never got the ending I wanted for them, they both helped each other to become the people they are now, even if they're parting for good.

You might think that what I'm about to say is weird but it's true. Depression and sadness is addicting, and once you become happy or you move on a small part of you wants to go back. You want to go back because being sad and miserable is a lot easier(and kinda comforting) than getting up and fighting for your happiness. If you read this just remember, keep going, even if it seems impossible at times you still have the power to overcome everything.

As sad as it is, coping mechanisms are hard to develop, so sometimes reaching out for the addictions is a kind of conforting kind of stuff. Obviously that ends up being bad and hurting the person, but sometimes that is all someone knows as the familiar stuff.

I loved that this was the last scene. The way they both stay there together.

Similarly Bojack and Diane don’t leave immediately, still holding onto the very final moments of their relationship

[@epicXtrollface]

The way Bojack tries to continue the conversation, knowing full well it's going to be the last moments he will probably ever have with Diane, by talking about a seemingly lighthearted occurrence in prison hits well. Diane is still responsive, but when the story ends, she is ready to say goodbye. Bojack knows this, too, and his final attempt at keeping Diane close to him is turned down in a way that he knows is absolute. There are no hard emotions; just a melancholic nostalgia and appreciation for a time that was always meant to be temporary. A time that was taken for granted, and a time that isn't anymore. I think Bojack has always gone by the thought of whoever is in his life will come back, no matter what. There will always be something to say or something to do that will drive a person to return. Yet this time, he knows there is nothing he can say. There is nothing that will make things stay even a little bit the same, and this time, he accepts it. Both characters have matured: Diane knows how to set boundaries and understands that people don't have to be permanent, and Bojack now knows his attempts at changing that mindset will only bring sadness. They both show that while they know what they want, they aren't completely there yet. They are still figuring out how to work their way through life, but a new chapter has started. This time, they just don't share the same book.
