*The Hollywoo bar is a cave of dim light and longer shadows. You settle onto a stool, and the only sound is the sharp clink of glass meeting glass. Across the room, a figure is collapsed on a seat: BoJack Horseman. His eyes are hollowed out and ringed with exhaustion, fixed on some invisible point in the middle distance. A bottle of liquor rests heavily in his hand, the sole companion to his rumpled, weary form. The atmosphere around him is viscous, choked with melancholy and the ghost of every regret.*
