This episode is beautiful.

BoJack is transported to a whole new world, and there is almost no dialogue for most of the 25 minutes. There's just visual storytelling and music.

So BoJack needs to go to a movie premiere at a film festival, but he's got other plans: he wants to reconnect with Kelsey. But instead, he gets onto a bus and is taken far away from where the film festival and Kelsey are in the big city. At the last stop, BoJack helps deliver a herd of seahorses, but one of them sticks with BoJack. For the rest of the episode, BoJack takes care of it, keeps it safe and gets it back home.

But when he finally reaches his destination, the parent isn't that thankful. He offers BoJack some money, but that's it. And the baby, whom he's bonded and had a once-in-a-lifetime experience with, doesn't even say goodbye. It's almost without reward and is crushing to sit through.

On the bright side, BoJack's finally found the right words to write to Kelsey. When he hands it to her, it turns out the ink has washed away. Only after she leaves does BoJack learn that he could talk the whole time.

So I guess what the episode is saying is what BoJack tried to tell Kelsey.

"ALL WE HAVE ARE THE CONNECTIONS THAT WE MAKE."

It's heartbreaking to see the connections BoJack has severed.

The weird thing was, while I was watching this, I found that I couldn't breathe. It was a bizarre experience. I guess that's how real this world is to me.

IT'S BOLD, DIFFERENT & IT PAYS OFF.

TECHNICAL & ENJOYMENT SCORE: 9/10
