>>103063201>Ralph's dismissal was kind of over the line though. Felt a bit forced.The first time it almost made sense from a "stronk womyn" perspective, the second time in season 5 was forced. Why even bring Ralph back if his role is to say "hey now that you are doing the thing I suggested and also are going to have a kid do you want to get back together since we clearly work well together and both want to take care of a kid even though neither of us have the time or experience to single-handedly raise a child, but together we could overcome that" only for PC to shout "WTF NOOOO!!!". Seriously, they went through all the trouble of setting up PB wanting to option a movie based on a greeting card, just to get PC to meet with Ralph, just to get Ralph to drive her to the expecting mother, just to get that mother to assume their a couple, just to get Ralph to suggest they BE a couple again, just for PC to spaz out on him and go back to status quo.
Logically it feels like they HAVE to be setting up for Ralph to come back in season 6 to say "haha your baby has a diaper full of 16 hours of poo", so PC can say "but I'm busy and can't remove poo from the baby's diaper currently", so that Ralph can say "haha I will remove the poo" and get them back together. There were a lot of S5 scenes that just had no purpose otherwise, and a big conflict of S6 HAS to be PC being incapable of taking care of a baby on her own, S5 showed she was clearly incapable of even adopting the friggin thing without screwing over half her people, including forgetting to get Bojack's stuntman back resulting in Bojack getting seriously injured, and then she even suggested drugging Bojack hardcore to "fix" that injury, directly leading into Bojack's primary conflict for the season's last few episodes.
