The Jerry/Morty and Summer/Beth plots sucked, yeah. We get it: Jerry's a loving idiot and the only thing he's actually any good at it is manipulating others. Beth is protective of Summer, while Summer is desperate for her life to change for the better. We learned nothing new. The Rick plot was interesting. Shitenshi posted:This one feels like a more comedy oriented Pickle Rick. It's not a top secret Russian embassy, they're just a really banality of evil type secret aliens, and Rick's not fighting Jaguar, he's overreacting to an extremely minor slight. The Smith family isn't even being jerked around by Rick's self-destructiveness this time, they're tearing themselves apart due to their own stupidity.

I liked this episode. It was funny to me blasé Rick and Summer were about things. The wizard’s death scene was hilarious, just how he casts his ice spell and rambles on about how it’s just making his death slower. The weirdness of the cat plot, and of course Rick can relate to a mythical monster that despises humans and hordes cool poo poo. It was pretty good, IMO.

I don’t think appearing in this episode necessarily means that they’re never going to do anything with any of these elements ever again. What I’m saying is that Summer really will go to college and Abradolf Linkler is going to move into her old room and get into wacky hijinks with Jerry.

Space Cadet Omoly posted:I think you're missing the point of Rick's choice, or rather the choice he didn't make. Beth asked him directly whether he wanted her in his life or not, and he lacked the emotional capacity to give her a real answer. So instead he came up with a way to further separate himself from her by creating a "fake" version of his daughter so he didn't actually have to decide how he felt about her in any meaningful way. He chose both options so he wouldn't have to commit to either one because he's a petty selfish man who isn't willing to form real human connections. Another example is what he did to Dr. Wong's office: why is it full of ridiculous escape gadgets if he can simply choose not to go? Because Rick is a coward who needs to protect himself even from the feeble pangs of his own conscience. Rick is existentially terrified of his own feelings and of ever being wrong(or, at least, being perceived as being wrong). He also can't let go of anything: it's why he salvaged Phoenix Person, when it probably would have been kinder to just kill him than do whatever the gently caress Rick is doing.

Jonas Albrecht posted:Morty you dipshit she was right. But then, I think Morty is craving a normal, wholesome relationship, but an entity psychically linked with a planet that’s suffering immensely can’t provide that. He didn’t unsummon her though, even though he could have. But wow, Beth is actually being a good mom! And the Rick&Summer apocalypse tour was fun. An altogether really good episode. Seems we’re getting a Beth&Morty plot next week…

Durf posted:yeah. the way they just slammed on the gas before you can process that they are indeed rolling with such an idiotic concept made me laugh harder than I have in awhile with this show. it felt similar to the time travelling snakes ep. Me, I think this season has been pretty good so far: this last one was a clunker and Sperm episode was awful, but I loved decoys, Planetina, and turkeys, personally, and the first episode was good. In fact, I can still hear King Nimbus say "Richard". Just great voice acting.

alf_pogs posted:this is a good summary of my take from it. and also it ties back into Rick's alcoholism and selfishness - which are then exasperated by and contribute to Rick's depression. BP is his best friend and part of that is refusing to accept Rick's worst traits, so he has to draw a line somewhere Which may be why he fell out with Mr. Nimbus(who simultaneously seems deeply concerned for him and over his bullshit) and is certainly why he reacts in such an extreme manner every time one of the family(but especially Morty) calls him out. I wonder if they have the nads to really give Rick what he deserves…

I...wow. That was great. They really knocked it out of the park there. And we learned so much! But no more Citadel Episodes. Though Mortytown was spared at least. I wonder if Evil Morty cared even a little? It seemed like an obvious escape route.

Random Stranger posted:My reaction to the finale was, "Okay, but I'm not sure any of this mattered," which I guess is kind of a Rick attitude. Evil Morty did something to a poorly explained concept, which I always figured was dropped in as a throw away line originally just to explain why infinite universes weren't actually infinite on the show, that didn't have any effect on the show or doesn't have any reason to have an effect on the show. They dedicated a whole lot of time to walking around vague explanations and exposition for things that don't mean anything, more like it had the appearance of meaning. I guess the take away is Rick was the smartest man in the universe because he rigged the multiverse so he'd always be the smartest man in the universe, but that wasn't part of the show before that episode so it was the writers introducing a defining feature of the show and breaking it in the space of five minutes. It doesn't carry any weight. Any story that results from this they could have done before this episode with absolutely no difference. Well, other than Evil Morty hopping around with a golden portal gun. Also, the fact that our Rick's Beth really did die in childhood explains *why* he pulled that trick back in Season 3(I think): on a certain level, he knows he's a toxic influence, but he couldn't bear the thought of losing her again. So he tried to have his cake and eat it too, because he's Rick, and it allowed him to not have to deal with how he feels about coming into adult Beth's life, seemingly completely accidentally.

I used to think Raising Gazorpazorp was the worst episode in this series. But Rickdependence Spray is basically that piece of poo poo reheated in a microwave. In other words, it wins the boobie prize. The GoTron episode was terribly boring and a bad parody, and then it touched The Poop. Other then that, this season was pretty great, with Decoys, the credit stinger alone is pure gold, but that’s the quality of the whole thing! Turkeys, and the Two-Part finale leading the pack. But Jesus were those two eps rancid.

Yeah, I think this show handles its plot and lore very well. If you keep on focusing in one direction, building up one or the other mystery or conspiracy, they almost inevitably become too large and sprawling to resolve in a sensible and satisfying manner (or make sense, for that matter.) Orphan Black burned me with that.

That was a quality episode. And it also demonstrates how much Rick has grown: he actually cares about *this* family enough to deal with saying...Par-mes-ian? Par-mee-sian? God, that would suck!

And right before that as Space Beth was leaving Jerry said something about learning a lesson this Thanksgiving, and Rick replied with "Me too." But, then...he deserves this for cloning his daughter instead of telling her he loves her. Summer and Morty...not so much.

It was hilarious to me that Night Rick's solution to their problems wasn't actually solving any of their problems: it was the equivalent of mass murder-suicide to dump all their problems on the "daymonoids". He and Rick have a lot in common!
