Unpacking Diane's Trauma | "Good Damage" Explained (ft. offbeat kiki)

Huge thanks to ‪@offbeatkiki‬ for joining me on this breakdown, please go subscribe to their channel and check out their amazing content!

“Good Damage” is an insightful study of trauma through Diane Nguyen, and showcases Diane’s struggles in the wake of her move to Chicago. It’s a turning point for the viewer’s understanding of Diane as well as her journey towards stability. It’s an emotionally raw episode that beautifully captures the nuances of how our own mind can exacerbate our insecurities, and that’s why it stands out. While BoJack Horseman was in the dark about Diane’s life, the viewer was too, and the Diane that we meet in Good Damage is being much more real with herself about the state of her life. This is a trait that stays with her for the rest of the show, and one of the strongest signals of her trauma recovery.
