The episode was released in the United States, along with the rest of season two, via Netflix on July 17, 2015. Olivia Wilde, Ed Helms, Adam Pally, and Ilana Glazer provide guest voices. In the episode, BoJack visits his old friend Charlotte Moore in hopes of starting a relationship with her, only to find out she already has a family. He begins to bond with the family anyway, ultimately leading to disastrous results. Plot BoJack (Voiced by Will Arnett) arrives in Tesuque, New Mexico, to surprise visit his younger days friend Charlotte (Olivia Wilde), with whom he reckons he can live happily ever after. To his shock, Charlotte is married and has two teenage children. BoJack awkwardly makes up that he is in New Mexico to buy a boat. After he actually does buy a yacht, which he calls Escape from L.A., Charlotte convinces him to stay a few days since everybody there loves him. BoJack receives a call from Princess Carolyn (Amy Sedaris) urging him to get back to the Secretariat film set, but he ignores her. Two months later, BoJack is still in New Mexico. He has become a member of the family and sleeps in his yacht, which is parked in the driveway. Penny (Ilana Glazer), Charlotte's 17-year-old daughter, is upset that her love interest Diego Mendoza rejected her invitation to prom. BoJack suggests that he should go as her surrogate date in order to spite Diego. They go to prom on a double date with Penny's friends Maddy (Ali Wong) and her boyfriend Pete (Jermaine Fowler). BoJack supplies the group with bourbon whiskey on the way there. At prom, Maddy gets increasingly drunk; Penny is sad over seeing Diego with his date; and BoJack gets booed off the dancefloor after trying to dance to his 90's hit song "Do the BoJack". They decide to leave the party, driving out to the desert. There, Maddy passes out. Fearing that she might have alcohol poisoning, they rush her to the hospital. BoJack abandons Maddy and Pete at the hospital to avoid being held responsible, and he and Penny drive home.
