 Fuck me and my fucking asshole. What's up everybody? It's ricksy minutes. I'm the best guy ever here with digi bro Hey, I'm still alive. He sure are dude. So we just watched episode five of season three What was this one called the grand? Adventure of the early derly the world early derly of course of course who could forget such a wonderful name Yeah, so this was way better than the last episode right out of the gate a thousand times better We got a lot of flack for not liking the previous episode. We sure did like I don't know why I enjoyed it And if so many people were just like guys you fucking tools obviously it was a Avengers reference Therefore all your criticisms don't make sense and are in balance Okay, yeah, literally what the fuck is the difference between an Avengers reference and a Guardians of the Galaxy reference, okay? Like literally what so because the Guardians of the Galaxy are a part of the Marvel universe Yeah, another five-person team and They're in the fucking new Avengers movie. So what the fuck is the difference? I think what they were Like it doesn't make any fucking difference, but to these incredibly pedantic people It's that like these guys like form up as a team like when called upon like the Avengers do they're not always a Zero zero Which and I know you haven't seen the Avengers either have you know, I haven't exactly so I have and I still I don't give a it makes no difference It's just that thing like we say something that's like not even like wrong But like slightly maybe a bit incorrect and so that may allows there to be a justification for why we're just totally invalid Our entire point of opinions can be thrown out I can't even like process the idea that it's less correct to say it's a guardians of the galaxy parody than it is a Avengers pair. Yeah, it's they're literally the same thing you got what What you got Like like the mate the the dude who's like the human guy. Yeah, you could say he's Star Lord You can say he's Tony Stark either way it makes just as much fucking sense. Yep You know, right? Is the pile of ants supposed to be The Hulk or is he supposed to be? That other guy the tree no tree, but oh Groot Groot. Yeah, Groot. Yeah. Yeah, there you go I don't fucking know Groot or is he supposed to be some of it? It doesn't matter because they're none of them are a direct parody. That was my whole complaint Anyway, forget about that episode. Yeah, that one doesn't matter. Let's move on. So it's great Yeah, this episode was really great. It was fucking great. I loved it. I'd say I loved it It was everything I wanted. This felt like a season one episode to me And it really took me back in a way in a way that I really wanted the way that was good Refreshing and some people were asking me because You know, they preview the shit out of these episodes before they come out I ignore all that because back in season two I was fall like I follow Rick and Morty on Facebook and shit and like in season two I was watching all the trailers beforehand and shit and all it did was make it so I Wouldn't laugh at that joke when it happened in the episode exactly, you know, yeah, like because I've heard it too recently Or or out of context and like so it happened in the episode and I'd be like, oh, this is the part I saw on the trailer so I don't laugh at it. The worst example of that was in season two and Morty turned into a car Oh, yeah already spoiled that and like had I not known that that shit would have blown my mind to fuck But I knew already so it wasn't that there was no impact So I try to ignore all that but people bring it up in our comments Anyways and people were asking me like, oh, are you worried to bring him back Jerry next week, but It was Jerry and Rick and that as soon as I heard that I was excited because what I'm sick of with Jerry is him and Beth Oh, yeah, that dynamic is played out Jerry and Rick You can do anything with you know, so I thought oh, no, that sounds awesome. Yeah, I'd love to see Jerry and Rick It's a great combo and it was and so it was it was great You know just like bouncing Rick is just the guy with no filter who will just tell you what's up And you know, we just really dived to the heart of Jerry's character here And you know there's that scene later on where he just like spells out exactly what kind of a guy Jerry is and I was fucking Devastating and fantastic and that's the kind of shit. I love that scene was great Because it put words to like what our problem with Jerry is like not just like it's it's everyone's problem with Jerry Everyone knows Jerry's shit, but like sometimes like I've seen in our comments people being like why are you guys so harsh on Jerry? Like what the fuck what you know, and we're like well, that's the thing like Rick kind of spells it out right here that yeah like Jerry Himself is not a great guy like and not just because he's an idiot because he he just Manipulates people to get what he wants, you know, he's constantly in this. Oh, oh, I'm oh everyone beats up on me I'm the victim. I'm the victim even though. He's the one who like like Rick said He's it's his fault Beth's unhappy at this point. I mean, it's both of their fault equally, but like He wasn't a good husband for her So he's not like it's not like because she's breaking up with him. He's the victim here It's like no you were both bad that's that's exactly right You know what's fascinating about this to me It really reminds me sort of of a dynamic of the worst kind of like YouTube commenter versus like a YouTube creator just as an example in my life Like Rick is a guy who goes out and creates things, you know, he doesn't need society to give him anything He creates value in his life and in those around him Jerry on the other hand is a parasite He's a little scum sucking shit who can't do anything for himself. He's like a YouTube commenter He's like a whiny entitled YouTube commenter who just you know wants stuff give to him for free And when he doesn't get exactly what he wants, he'll bitch and cry and complain and pretend that he's been bullied in some way Not that I really have any experience with this but just in my experience in YouTube like you see that shit around Like it just Jerry is the worst parts of humanity like the people that I want to all die And I only respect the people like like Rick who just they do things They create that they add value to the world so that the people like Jerry can live better lives But they don't deserve better lives They just happen to be there in in in the warm glow of the genius and the power that is the Rick Sanchez's of the world I mean someone like Jerry he really praise on The our humanity. Oh, yeah, like this is where some more parasite He's a moral parasite sometimes when we look at Rick Like there's clearly elements of Rick that are monstrous and should there are not advised Of course that are not good for him or for anybody, you know, like this this level of of like Detachment from emotion is not a good idea However, there are also elements of Rick that are there to protect us that we should Incorporate into our lives like being able to like see through this kind of manipulation of someone like Jerry Because the average person again, it's gonna feel sorry for him and like that's how he'll fuck you, you know And you know, I know he'll I really love how he brings up specifically like Jerry like it's not like there are no victims You are the predator Beth was your prey you use your pathetic little, you know Whiny existence as a way to entrap Beth to like suck the life out of her who you know is a far more capable person Than Jerry he's the parasite He is the bad guy here who just used this kind of emotional manipulation in his life and does constantly that we see every fucking episode that he's in To just you know be a baby Play play prey upon people's like Desire to you know, like even in this episode like he just fucking is so pathetic that nobody feels like killing him They're just like this is not worth my time. It's not worth my time And that's what he does with Beth and you know, it's it's it's great to just see it spelled out So black and white and you know what just to get a little more actually, you know what I don't want to say that never mind Well, I'll take it to go further into the episode There's an opportunity here because I've been complaining about how I wanted Jerry to just be out of the show But I do think there's ways to use him like the reason I wanted him out I wanted him out exactly this way where he's just not in the house Having the same bee plots. He's had we just don't want the same story again and again, and this is the same story There's a huge opportunity at the end of this episode where Jerry seems To kind of learn from what Rick accused him of and the other in the fucking other dude, you know like Jerry gets his shit Rocked Emotionally and he actually seems to reflect on it a little and it seems like throughout the season Jerry has kind of been like Taking in the criticisms people have had of him, you know, like as it's gone on He's kind of reflected and I'm wondering what if Jerry actually Actually develops as a character, you know, it reminds me of when I was a young lad And not doing a lot with my life before I had my shit together Like my parents would just bring up occasionally how they needed to throw me out and not that they would but like they're just Hey, you're living here. You're just being a bum. What are you fucking doing with your life? And that was entirely fair and like throwing me out would have been a fine and reasonable thing to do And that's kind of exactly what happened Jerry, you know You got a fucking nut up in a situation like that and face your shit and recognize it Like he's just being placated by continuing to live with Beth and like continuing to receive to continue to suck on the teat of Sweet life that comes from these these better people. I actually I actually know a guy Now that I'm like thinking about it and hearing it like through this episode. I'm realizing I know a guy Who's just like Jerry, uh-huh who has a victim complex? He's constantly blaming the circumstances surrounding him and other people being an asshole But he himself is a vindictus shit who like the second the second he has the power in a situation He takes advantage of it just like Jerry does this episode where when Rick's retarded Jerry's just beating up on him ruthlessly Even though he would never he you know at all other times He's crying victim right because of Rick's actions I knew a guy exactly like that and he got kicked out of my group of friends for being that way like we He he he pissed off everyone I knew so many times that we eventually just had to say you can't come here anymore like just like Jerry So it's just it's kind of the inevitability with someone like this because they are so sure that Everyone else is the asshole that they will never Process the fact that they are the real asshole That's exactly right and the best you can hope for in a situation like that I think is that like you kick this person out they finally have to face the real Consequences of their lifestyle and their attitude and actions and like Hopefully they'll become a better person and then like get a decent group of friends elsewhere Or like maybe get a family that like they've actually formed a real bond of respect with and you know what maybe years later They'll be it once they become a good person. They'll be able to come back and be like hey, man You know hey ain't see in a while. You know, I'm not a pathetic piece of shit anymore. I really became a good person Yeah, I'm doing my own thing now don't need to you know drag everybody else around down with me I've got this other thing that I've developed in my own life You know my own my own situation my own friends my own circle that I built up with actual positive character traits and And then you can have that kind of relationship later on you know, but I I love I love it when people have to Face their shit that's fucked up about themselves personally and get over it and yeah, it's what this episode wasn't it was fucking great I love that the scene of Rick Hammering Jerry with all of that. Yeah is immediately followed by a scene of Jerry being repeatedly slapped in the face by the testicles of a monster That he's right in the sack. Yeah That was fucking great. That's that's what I love about Rick and Morty. That's the kind That's the Rick and Morty I want. I I can deal with all the the clever Yeah, the clever bickering or whatever is You know like the last episode I was complaining that too much of it was like the snarky back and forth The the Rick and Morty stuff that makes me bust out laughing is when they hit you with some some deep real shit and then follow It up with a amazingly timed dick joke, you know the show really needs to keep that going if it doesn't like yeah It starts to feel like Like a Marvel movie I guess which I don't want which I do not want this Yeah, I want to keep that raw shit. Keep it flowing guys Yeah, it was fucking good not to mention the fact that during that that you know seen where Jerry's just being Emotionally devastated by Rick and he's crying. He's just like literally being eaten and devoured by a monster and his fucking diet Just that's great. You know you got to die and you got to deal with your shit to become a real boy Jerry. Oh It was good. Hey, but you know there was a bunch of other cool stuff in this episode How about that immortality field? That's pretty fucking cool idea. Yeah There's a there's a manga that is kind of all about this Like exploring this idea. Oh, yeah, I'm gonna call it immortal hounds which takes place in a world where There's like a society where no one can die and like people who can die can because of like a disease So like the police are just hunting those people down with impunity because like they don't want to spread the disease of being able to die So if you can die and they can just shoot anybody it doesn't matter because if you're immortal You'll come back to life and if you die. Oh, well that guy had the disease. So fuck him You know, so it's just like constant violence and people shoot each other And and the thing is that in immortal hounds, it's not that you heal instantly like you do in this It's that when you die you heal So if you say lose your arms then you'll just be without arms until you bleed out and die and then you come back Oh, I see so it does a lot of interesting things that that this is a less interesting usage of the concept than that But that's also in that case. It's the entire series is about that. Yeah, right The fact that even insert that into one episode as like a set piece is great and it's really cool And yeah, the it's it's used to what little you know Like the effect that they could cram into this episode my one I think my favorite part of the whole episode and that wasn't directly related to Jerry's whole shit was just at The end after like, you know The shit goes down and the immortality field goes away and the little kid who had been murdering a sister for fun over and over Shoots her again. He's just like Liz. She's she's fucking dead and the thing about that scene. Yeah Yeah, that's that scene is close to This show I've said this before this show is always writing on this line between like just glib violence that I would find Disgusting and violence that's fun and breezy. Yeah, and this is like right on the line But I think it's fun and breezy whereas in the last episode the one guy getting horribly fucking murdered for no reason was just kind of gross It was like why why did we need this? Like what did he do that was so obnoxious that he deserved to die so? Bizarrely in this episode. It's just some minor little background character But the fact that earlier in the episode Jerry had said that's just bad parenting either way that makes it hilarious That's exactly right and beyond hilarious It's actually kind of making a point that I actually like a lot It's like yeah, don't live in a fucking fan still world like Jerry's just like this is Fuck the fact that Jerry immediately recognized that this is like stupid and irresponsible and was 100% right Yeah, it's good. You know, he's got a little bit of wisdom in him as he's not a total fucking idiot. It's good That was really good Yeah, it was a good mom kill more children Rick and Morty We got a yeah, and it's you know, they managed to make Horribly murdering a child funny. Yeah What I'm trying to think I'm like I'm trying to think of anything other than the crazy trippy scene to talk about but I have to address it because it's just This episode they go through a wormhole and just there's this total mind fuck scene where they get like mind melded for an Epoch or something. Yeah, but it's a fleeting high So you it's like waking up because I I know this feel of like I've had those dreams that last like days And it's like you've lived this other life and then you wake up and for like five minutes You feel like this incredible dysphoria between like your mind and body having like having to remember who you actually are And like where you really are But then it just goes away and you forget about the dream and it doesn't matter anymore and like that was this moment of I Have um Something I've always been really interested in is like these kinds of time accelerations like people who've experienced an Incredible amount of time would have such a different perspective on Everything, you know, so like in that moment after it happened. They have such this incredible Understanding of one another that could have been I mean that was a whole epoch of experience of them being a completely different person But they forget about it so quickly that it already doesn't matter Yeah, you know, they lived they lived an infinite number of other seasons of Rick and Morty that we'll never see That's an excellent way to put it. Yeah, in which Rick and Jerry have a great relationship doing weird trippy shit like fucking and also turning into Animals and killing each other and evolving and shit. Yeah, and then at the end he's like already He just doesn't give a fuck after like one second out. It's fucking hilarious. It's great Yeah, that's the great juxtaposition there of all this like epic shit happening and I'm just not giving a fuck Like that's like the good kind of nihilistic stuff. This does it's like it's like a fucking funny joke that makes me laugh and go Haha, that's good. That's that's the good while also being it While also not only being a like high-level Concept but also one that you can understand in one sentence. Yeah, like Rick explains He just says yeah, like that experience whatever it's called is a more fleeting high than salvia, you know, like Immediately we get why they're coming down like what just happened and why it's not affecting them anymore It's all set in a couple lines while you're imagining this much bigger concept that they've actually explored That's classic. That's what I love about Rick and Morty That's like my favorite thing about the show is that it's fucking and Then also one of my favorite scenes is so we've got a bee plot in this episode about summer accidentally turning yourself giant It's definitely the the less interesting part of the episode, but I'm okay with that I'm okay with bee plots in general Yeah, I think it makes sense when you're trying to split up a Story and have more than one thing going on and we get this fucking hilarious moment When Beth turns herself giant and it's talking to summer and you can't understand what either of them are saying like they're having this big Emotional moment, but it's just That was fucking hilarious By the way, do you think this was an all-in-attack on Titan reference? They just kind of looked like it, you know I know Yeah, I didn't think about it could be What'd you think of Morty vindictively fucking over the guy who for hurting his sister's feelings. Yeah, I mean I Enjoyed seeing Morty in that role of like the like it makes sense that like this guy has seen the shit now Like he's yeah He's in a place where he can easily do this kind of stuff when he wants to just like threaten people and do you think Morty will eventually become Rick Like that's kind of what seems to be implied sort of in season two We were constantly given in fact ever since season one There's been this idea that that he is the good Morty. He's the smarter more to the than the other Morty's right and in season two He always has these moments where like he tries to be like more Rick like but he's still so stupid that he gets Himself fucked over anyways, but now in season three sometimes Morty doesn't fuck up this episode Morty had all the power Morty tricked Rick Into going on this adventure so he can get rid of Rick He sure did like Rick the concept of this episode is Rick thinks he's taking he thinks Morty is so worried about Jerry So he takes Jerry on a fake adventure to placate Morty But Morty is actually just wanted a break from hanging out with Rick and so tricked him into taking his dad instead Yeah, Morty doesn't give a fuck about Jerry. He doesn't give a fuck about Rick He just wanted Rick out of his hair and then he's bad and you know and he's Smarter than his mom in the situation they get into you know He's the voice of reason there and I'm just like Morty was completely on top of his game this episode. What the fuck? You know, he's really getting his shit together. Yeah, there's no doubt about it It's an interesting idea. I never been sure if I wanted that but now if it's like this I kind of do Well, you know, I was thinking so we've seen like all these multi-verse versions of Morty But have we ever seen like older Morty like what he'll be like as an adult? No, I don't think we've ever explored that We've never really got into like mm-hmm future or past of the timelines of the characters Which is probably smart in terms of wanting to be able to keep writing the story without fucking up too bad Yeah, like all the different ricks the different dimensional ricks are always him as an old man, you know, yeah, by the way Quick aside, so in this episode we learned that Rick's got a ton of cybernetic enhancements all over his body Yeah, and that's really cool, and I like that It's it's interesting, but it's kind of weird that that hasn't ever come up before and it strikes me as like Okay, he's been in a lot of situations where it'd be really useful to have used those and he just never did So it's it feels to me like someone just wrote that in this episode like they thought it Well, when we finally see him use one He like opens up this massive gun to shoot a suction cup at somebody So I think maybe they're all just weird stupid prank Well, he does that but then he also blasts the guys head off like with the same gun But yeah, I also had like the suction cup thing. Um, yeah, I don't care at all. It was cool But it's I yeah, it doesn't matter. I my favorite joke in this episode is Placated Rick mm-hmm like the fact that the idea that in order to prevent International terrorism when you get on a plane they just inject you with something that makes you Fucking retard with no controversial opinions or Intelligence yeah, and that and that they did this to ring like he was not prepared for it And now he's just completely helpless and he's talking like a baby and it's fucking hilarious Like Jerry beating up on him while he was returning was the funniest shit to me. Yeah, that was good. That was good shit Well fuck anything else, I mean we do oh, you know what one other aspect of this episode is like Like Beth's just like need to like be in charge of shit like she's doing this weird Yeah, you know what she's doing her weird like hover like lull epic joke guys But then like it's a bizarre one Yeah, I thought it was kind of cool But then like so there's the whole thing that she's kind of like vying with Morty about how like she needs to like be able To solve these issues without her dad and it seems like it all really just stems from the need to like like Morty sums it up later On the episode like yeah, like just stop stop sucking up to your dad like stop trying to just like make his life great and be super You know Caring and whatever like conciliatory to wherever if he fucking needs I feel like a What's great about this situation with Beth is that now with Jerry out of the picture We're getting to look at the fact that Jerry wasn't all her problems. Yeah, you know like up until this point It's been like all of the bad things like all of her emotional issues have been blamed on Jerry And now that we see that with him out of the picture. She doesn't just immediately thrive Yeah, he's not suddenly like a badass who gets to do anything. She's just a horribly emotionally damaged weirdo who You know like instead of going and doing something scientific with her time is like building a hoof Statue like yeah, she's she's broken. Which is interesting Because you know Rick brings up, you know when he was having the big fight with him and Jerry how how Jerry ruined this dot That his daughter, you know, like this is Rick Sanchez's daughter She could have done fucking anything and instead like he knocked her up this fucking piece of shit worm loser Who's only skill in life is making people pity him, which I'm sure is just the worst thing Rick could like possibly have to deal with God the fact I'm just thinking of like if my daughter married a guy like Jerry like Jesus Christ That would be the fucking where I would want to murder him. I would want to murder that man It would be a nightmare But it's also partly Rick's fault because he wasn't around that's very true That's a very good point like he's the one who created the emotional vulnerability that probably left her open to just like Fucking around with this kid and she was a little baby. Yeah, so that sucks though You know, I do wonder did she you know the fact that you brought up before like the fact that Jerry disappears And it doesn't immediately solve all our problems Did she does she really have like that much going on for herself like I know she's Rick's daughter But it's not like she's some kind of super genius in her own right, you know Yeah, maybe that's him being a dad, you know just being a straight-up dad there I Don't know it's something to think about I'm gonna be keeping that in mind and like see if she shows burgeoning potential of I Don't know magic science powers or something. I guess I don't know Yeah, well, that's a that's all I've got to say about this episode really strong You're not not as like it's not one of those like brick-shitting incredible episodes that like is just so perfectly Crafted like episode one. Yeah, or or something or or one that's like super unique like pickle Rick Like this is very this is like standard Rick and Morty in a good way Yeah, the last episode was like if you took just like the Like the bog standard of the show, but like below like without actually having anything that stands out This is an episode that's like as good as what should be the average for this show I completely agree. That's a good way of pointing it I should be like this should be the minimum and above and beyond should be the maximum I very much agree. I'd give it like a strong eight or something like that Yeah, I agree. All right. Well, that's it everybody. Thanks for listening rickstie mitts. Uh back next week. Hey I don't give a fuck bitch. I don't care about anything. Bye. Bye
