BoJack initially struggles with rehab, but finds the motivation to excel when he learns that Sarah Lynn once was a patient in the same clinic. He accidentally helps teenage patient Jamison sneak out to go to a party and follows her out of guilt, eventually finding her at her father's house, who she claims neglects her in favor of his new child. As BoJack helps her smash up the house, her father arrives and she tries to blame it on BoJack. Her father sees through the ruse and explains that the baby is actually Jamison's, taking them both back to rehab. BoJack catches Jamison trying to sneak a water bottle full of vodka in and takes it from her. Throughout the episode, a series of flashbacks are shown in reverse chronological order, all of them involving BoJack and alcohol, revealing that the first time he drank was as a young child following a house party thrown by his parents.

She orders a re-edit of Mr. Peanutbutter's movie Birthday Dad when questioned on how feminist her works are, which cuts it down to forty minutes and gets the movie cancelled. Todd, watching the baby, accidentally orders a TV show under its name, which Princess Carolyn realizes is the perfect opportunity to pitch Birthday Dad as a television show. She has an earnest talk with Vanessa Gekko and confides that she is afraid she may not properly love her daughter, but Gekko assures her that she just needs to keep going regardless and that it will come naturally. Princess Carolyn finally gets the baby to sleep, and decides that she will name her "Ruthie".

Diane and Guy argue when he is unable to introduce her as anything more than his coworker, and she leaves Chicago for Los Angeles after she tells him he cannot be the only good thing in her life. She returns home to find several letters from BoJack written in rehab, where he laments wasting years being depressed when he could have been happy, inspiring her to call Guy and offer to stay with him in Chicago.

Diane tells BoJack that she is moving to Chicago, and he promises that he will be fine without her when she asks.

Ruthie takes up all of Todd's time, so he hires several assistants to do his jobs for him, one of which visits BoJack in rehab, where he reveals he held onto Jamison's vodka because it reminded him of the incident with Sarah Lynn. As he unintentionally inspires the assistant to start an uprising, he throws the bottle away, only for it to end up in Doctor Champ's hands and ruin his sobriety. Mr. Peanutbutter is hated after being outed as cheating on Pickles, but Princess Carolyn wins him the public's love back by pushing him in front of a car and claiming it was a suicide attempt.

Hollywoo falls into chaos with all the assistants on strike, and Princess Carolyn and Lenny Turtletaub shut it down by promoting the leaders, and destroying the union. However, Princess Carolyn remembers her life as an assistant and decides to actually make a difference, enlisting the aid of Judah to help the assistants. BoJack leaves rehab but finds Doctor Champ at a bar, where he points out that BoJack has no horses in his life except Hollyhock because they all remind him of his parents, and BoJack checks him into another rehab facility when he continues to drink.

He reveals to BoJack that he has been going to therapy and has broken his cycle of forcing himself into relationships. Todd takes BoJack for a walk on the beach when he gets to the wedding and tells him that he is finally forming a relationship with his mother, and that all he had to do was strive to make the change he wanted. BoJack dances with Princess Carolyn as they reminisce on what he would do if she did not want to get married, and she promises to help him find a good agent if he decides to return to the industry. He finds Diane on the roof, where she reveals he left her a drunken voicemail the night he tried to commit suicide blaming her for not picking up the phone, and that it almost ended her relationship with Guy, but she instead moved to Houston and married him. As they acknowledge that this will likely be their last conversation, BoJack tells her a story from prison which ended with him unhappy, and muses that the point of life is that it is hard and then you die.
