On Monday, Spicer promised to hold a press conference every day this week. In the end, he held two press conferences, two off-camera gaggles, and skipped a day. Edit: Woops Piell fucked around with this message at 16:17 on Apr 6, 2017 |

Technically it was a different Morty from the main one who was responible for that whole chain of events? The main Rick & Morty were just hanging out at Blips and Chits. So K-Michael is alive and well!

My wife is pretty proud of herself because she's been mixing McDonald's BBQ and sweet-and-sour sauces for years so she's been eating the szechuan sauce long before it was suddenly cool  Also, I'm hoping the sauce does get revived so Rick can travel to our universe and take some back with him, and it turns out that was his plan all along - become an entertainment phenomenon in at least one universe where millions of people would be nostalgic for the sauce and demand it be recreated.

I get the feeling that some like the artist formerly known as Rick are more interested in their own stuff than the council, but I also get the feeling that C-137 is the only Rick openly hostile towards the council. I mean the dumb rick probably isn't on the council but they know of him and he doesn't fight against them. Does that count?

I also doubt all the Ricks were at the citadel at the time, only the ones that run it and the council along with those that might have been passing through at the time. So, he basically decapitated the council and probably pushed thousands if not millions of Ricks to act independently for the first time in awhile.

Cyclops Rick definitely didn't die at least, he was kicking rear end and taking names last time we saw him. Maybe cylops Rick is the new Rick leader by virtue of being the toughest survivor.

Covok posted:By virtue of the infinite worlds theory, Rick can never, no matter how much he tries, kill every Rick. "of all the ricks in the central finite curve" A plot contrivance that Harmon came up with years ago that solved all this before it began. Sorry bud. There may be infinite worlds, but most of them don't even have a Rick, or he's already dead. Remember Summer trying to view her alternate selves? E: Taking this further leads to a "cardinality of Ricks" debate, which is kinda cute, but "central finite curve" is pretty definitive.

Zaphod42 posted:"of all the ricks in the central finite curve" The central finite curve is just the scale Evil Rick/Morty used to grade the majority of Ricks. It doesn't restrict the number of overall Ricks to be less than infinite.

Zinjnok posted:The central finite curve is just the scale Evil Rick/Morty used to grade the majority of Ricks. It doesn't restrict the number of overall Ricks to be less than infinite. Without the latter, the former is meaningless. There would be infinite ricks in the scale. Between any given ricks, there would be infinite ricks, unless "central finite curve" means something.

I will do this and refuse to relax.Zinjnok posted:The central finite curve is just the scale Evil Rick/Morty used to grade the majority of Ricks. It doesn't restrict the number of overall Ricks to be less than infinite. I thought it did, in that it loosely defined the potential for some variation of the universe to have a Rick in it. As in, if you could numerically describe different realities and plot them, there'd be clear liminal points at the beginning and end of some curve where the likelihood of a Rick approaches 0. And I guess that could either be because of something mundane like Rick's parents never met, or because of massive phenomena like Earth-life evolving radically differently or the planet or solar system not forming the same way. The esoteric science thing I wonder about is Time. All these Ricks exist more or less contemporary to each other in spacetime, as far as I'm aware. Contextual to each universe, Rick was more or less born at a set point. But what if there is a whole range of universes where, due to random variation, Earth-life evolved humanity millions of years earlier or later? Maybe some ancient version of Rick traveled to C-137 and found the Cretaceous, and a far future one will find Dolphin-world. I guess "A Rickle in Time" is the only episode that directly addresses time travel.

It's not a perfect analog but: Parallel universes - Uncountable Infinite Set Ricks - Countable Infinite Set Finite Central Curve - Ricks the council has made contact with

I hope they go just a bit too far with Rick being a psychopath this season, then when it all comes to a head and they teeter on the edge of revealing the truth behind Rick's grimdark past, they kill him and Morty and hop us over to another Rick and Morty, almost the same, but with that entire past surgically removed. Then Rick gives Morty another garage speech about how they're going to go on a bunch of adventures with no cares in the world or reason to worry about or dwell on the past, and the season is over.

Xealot posted:I guess "A Rickle in Time" is the only episode that directly addresses time travel. Yeah, they tend to intentionally avoid it to avoid coming too close to BTTF. Also infinite universes is already pretty wild, you throw in time travel and the plot is basically meaningless at that point. Like Dr. Who  prefect posted:"It's not like he's dying; he's getting married."  He didn't die though! They rebuilt him. They have the technology.
