Is Rick and Summer getting buff to get revenge a reference to something? It's funny and weird but I feel like I'm missing something.

It's more of a reference to a trope than to a single thing. There's lots of mini-references with in it, though. For example, the bully kid from the cartoon Recess.

I always just assumed it was a subversion of expectations. As the viewer we'd expect their revenge to be some science-type thing that ends up turning the tables and beating The Devil at his own game, but instead they just beat the everliving gently caress out of him. rydiafan fucked around with this message at 19:34 on Oct 30, 2016 |

It's also just really cute to watch Rick and Summer spending some quality time together like that.

I'm not sure we really need Morty when we've got Summer available. (Okay, Rick needs his detection screen, but other than that.)

Oh hey poo poo. Now that Rick is far away from Morty and stuck in space prison, doesn't that mean he doesn't have dumb Morty waves hiding his location? Is he just hiding his location from other Ricks? The other Ricks might break him out I guess.

If there are an infinite number of Ricks, it also follows that there are an infinite number of Councils of Ricks (an infinite portion of which wants to capture our Rick). Its a dangerous multiverse.

Its a dangerous multiverse. It's possible there aren't infinite Ricks. The Council mentions "all the Ricks in the Central Finite Curve," so maybe there's a limited number of universes where Rick actually turns out the way we expect. There's also his off-handed remark in the Cronenberg episode that "we only get three or four more of these, tops." So although there's a lot of Ricks, maybe they eventually just get unrecognizably weird.

It's also possible that, while there are an infinite number of universes for some reason the Ricks (that we know) only actually have access to a finite number of them for some yet unexplained reason, like maybe because of the shape of "reality" (hence why it's a "curve" that's finite.) I just really hope there's a chair people universe Rick. Also, where is the council of Ricks? I cant imagine it's its own universe, so what universe did they put it in? And what happens to it when all the Ricks die? Cuz they're all the same age it seems like (And Ricks not that young). Do Ricks and Mortys just get reborn as some next generation of Ricks and Mortys? Do Mortys evolve into Ricks with some complete brainwave flip in their 20s? We better get a ton more seasons of this show.

Not to mention things like relativistic effects of near-light travel or cryo-sleep or different approaches to cloning, cybernetics, or stem cells or whatever. Rick could be any age or appear any age. And that's before time travel. There could be 1000 years of Rick and Morty. Always, the adventures of Rick and Morty. Dot com. Forever Rick and Morty.

I think the "three or four" thing was more a reference to how they can't just throw away the things they do or the audience will stop watching the show.

I'm pretty sure the "three or four" times reference is also a hint that RickPrime and MortyPrime are not actually from the save universe. Rick calling Little Richard "Tiny Rogerts" instead was probably also a hint.

My pet theory is that the Morty from the cold opening of the first episode is eyepatch-Morty who somehow survived.

There's gotta be some universes where Project Phoenix was a complete success.

the council of ricks is the greatest thing for Halloween because getting drunk with Ricks at parties as Rick is fun as gently caress.

I wonder what happened in the universes where the foot soldier Ricks come from. Why would any Rick choose to be a rank-and-file soldier? edit: I think the answer is "don't think about it"

They're the Ricks that like a bit of control on their life.

Do you guys think that dog's owners named it Beancounter, or was that the name it gave itself, like Snowball? Also, if it's owners did it, do you think it influenced Beancounter's decision to become accountant? Do our names define our fates?

Dan Harmon has an AMA up and he really loves answering it; a lot of his answers are really well thought out or at least quite detailed. You get to learn the events that led to him being taken off Community season 4, for instance. More relevant to this thread, I liked his answer to "What's the drink in Rick's flask?" Dan Harmon posted:I tend to assume vodka and I know it seems unlikely that Rick wouldn't use sci-fi tech to somehow augment whatever he drinks but I think in rick's mind part of the "addiction" to the flask of good old fashioned booze is that it anchors his identity, and I think he knows that if he augmented the booze or the flask, then why not just whip up a very rudimentary nanobiotic alcohol dispenser in his body or inject himself with a plasma component that just amounts to always having a certain blood alcohol level, and I think the reason he doesn't do that is because he's a little afraid he'll lose sight of who he is
