But then, there will always be an infinite number of Ricks who refuse to change.Īnd let’s be honest - that’s the Rick we want to keep watching.Don't ask for it. Maybe our Rick will understand the error of his ways, eventually. But Rick’s egotism stops him seeing the truth. Perhaps Summer cares less about being a copy of a copy, just another Summer out of trillions. Interestingly, Summer was proved correct about being a decoy, multiple times. We still went on an emotional journey with these characters, even if they flickered out of existence before the closing credits. But that’s the genius of Rick and Morty - nothing really matters, yet, everything does. No doubt, the emotional growth of Rick’s decoy isn’t about to be repeated by the original.Īmusingly, not a single moment in this episode really matters to our “original” family. But the end of the episode implies that they’re about to, to some degree, after Rick reveals the existence of the decoys to her and Space Beth. In reality, Rick and Beth didn’t share that important conversation.
Indeed, entire episodes of Rick and Morty might have starred decoys or alternate realities - even important, canonical events could have occurred multiple times, in slightly different ways.Īnd here, Rick learns, briefly, how to appreciate his family, to appreciate being alive, having stopped caring about being the “Rickiest Rick.” Of course, it’s too good to be true, as that emotionally evolved version of Rick is slaughtered by a throwaway joke from the beginning of the episode. We don’t even know if we’re still following the Rick we started with. Hell, Jerry was probably swapped with another Jerry during his stint at daycare, and frankly, we have no idea if this is really Rick’s first Morty.
As Beth points out, Rick has gone to the effort to duplicate his family because he loves them, and wants to keep them safe from harm.Īmusingly, aside from Morty, none of the Smiths are Rick’s “originals” - the family from the very first season are still scavenging the “Cronenberg universe” that Rick and Morty abandoned for an identical reality. Their creator is up in space, not giving a thought to the consequences of his actions.Įventually, Rick has a breakthrough moment with Beth, when he truly understands the value of his “original” family. That joke at the beginning about killing God plays itself out, over and over, as Ricks angrily slaughter their inferiors, only to realize that they’re all the same. In those brief seconds before death, those decoys understand exactly how it feels to be just another throwaway life, created by an uncaring Rick. Some of Rick’s decoys accept that cruel truth more readily than others - many choose death over life as a decoy, some are oddly understanding, and others resist reality until the bitter end.
