I’ve been thinking about Sarah Lynn recently. I’ve been thinking about whether Bojack in his own weird way thought he was doing Sarah Lynn a favour. She says in the early episodes that she will wind up dead young and that its out of her hands…she never even tries to take control, even when she’s pretending to be sober she’s not… everyone does everything around her… then they go on that mad bender and bojack witnesses her win an Oscar and still feel empty and useless… I think he realises at that point that they’re the same and she will never ever find happiness… her last words are that she wants to be an architect and she says them in the one place she wanted to be more than anywhere else… maybe he thought she would never be happier than at that point. Not at all a justification for his actions but maybe, just maybe that was the logic after consulting his heart of hearts… just as it was that his birthright was to be doomed and miserable, the same goes for her… her parents exploited and abused her, as did his (albeit not sexually as implied her step dad may have)…
