- Diane Nguyen: I'm excited to be on my own. I can do whatever I want. I can pick up in the middle of the night and go to Disney World or Vietnam.
- BoJack Horseman: Do you mean literally Vietnam, or like when Old Navy told me they were looking for a fresher face for their performance fleece commercials, and they ended up with Sherman Hemsley?
- Diane Nguyen: What?
- BoJack Horseman: That was *my* Vietnam.
- Diane Nguyen: The real reason you go to Vietnam is because you accidentally see your soon-to-be-ex-husband kiss someone else. At first you think, "Oh, it's a fling! Whatever, they're drunk. It's a party." But then he puts his hand on the small of her back exactly the way he used to do to you. It means, "I've got you." And when he did it to you, it made you feel safe. And you realize he will never do that to you again, and it breaks your heart again, after your heart was so broken that you thought it could never get any more broken. You thought it was safe, but it still somehow finds a new way to break. Because even though you're the one who asked for this, now that you've got it you are completely adrift, with no compass or map or sense of where to go or what to do. So you go to Vietnam. You think you might find community, a connection to something bigger, but you don't. In fact, you feel even more alone than you were before you left. But, you survive. You learn that you can survive being alone.
