Some thoughts on S03E06.

In fact, the other episodes are also very good, but the sixth episode really impressed me.

Rick has always been synonymous with rigor, intelligence, and greatness, but at the same time he is also narcissistic, lonely, and repressed. He regards his feelings for his family and morty as irrational feelings, and thinks that these parts are poisonous substances and are not good, so they are regarded as toxins and excreted by him, leaving a mouth saying "I love you" is actually a "healthy" grandfather who doesn't have much affection for Morty. But this is also a disguised admission of Rick's feelings for Morty. So seeing the toxic Rick willing to accept fusion in order to save Morty, I was very emotional. Of course, the healthy Rick's unwillingness to integrate at the beginning to the willingness to integrate at the later stage may also be due to the discovery of this reason, and he is reluctant to abandon this self-confessed irrational feeling. This proves that Rick subconsciously likes and cares about his family. On the contrary, Morty is much more direct. He hates that cowardly, inferior, stupid, passive and timid, unlikable "toxic" Morty, so he can leave the other party and run without hesitation. It was understandable, but at the same time he also abandoned his singleness, his singleness towards Monica. (I don't know if this should be classified as single, but it should be the only advantage morty inherited from Jerry.)

It feels like this is related to the previous two seasons. In the first two seasons, there were two episodes about the relationship between Jerry and Beth. One episode was a parallel world. No matter what I do or what kind of people I meet, I will eventually meet you and love you deeply (a little bit numb); In one episode, the two divorced and went to the kind of dating agency (the kind that persuaded to leave) on other planets. I didn't expect the two people's specific impression of each other to be in perfect harmony. The embodied Beth said to the real Beth, you don't know his benefits. (Although this sentence is meant to be ironic, it really shows that even if a person is really bad to the point of being very bad, some people still think he is good. This may be the so-called good heart)

Although it is far away, I have always felt that Morty and Jerry are very similar.

The Rickshank Rickdemption quotes

  • [Just as they are about to be attacked by the Cronenberg-world Smiths, Morty and Summer are saved by a SWAT team of Ricks]

    Morty Smith: Hold your fire! Hold your fire! I'm Morty C-137!

    Rick Sanchez: [as SWAT Leader] We detected a compromised portal gun. Where is your Rick?

    Summer Smith: He's in prison.

    Morty Smith: [irritated] Summer!

    Summer Smith: He got captured by the Federation and we were going to rescue him.

    Rick Sanchez: [as SWAT Leader] Very troubling. We can't risk Citadel secrets falling into the Federation's hands. We'll dispatch S.E.A.L. Team Ricks immediately to break into the prison holding C-137.

    Summer Smith: Boo-yah!

    Rick Sanchez: [as SWAT Leader] And assassinate him.

    Summer Smith: [confused] Boo... nah?

  • Jerry Smith: [in the middle of an argument] Willem Dafoe! That's -- that's who I couldn't think of this morning.
