Also he really resembles Jerry Prime with his hairstyle and the total look. If he lets hair grow, I'd bet they become more like Jerry Prime's version.

It's also interesting that his miserable Matrix version looks more like Primes, and when he's in the Hole version where he's relatively happy, he looks like Rick C-137 with his hair having this distinct light stream.

I dunno what to make of it tho

idk if it's just me who wants to catch all the similarities to Rick Prime because I think it's great lore that Morty Prime still resembles his original grandfather after all

I WAS SCREAMING THE ENTIRE EPISODE GUYS

Like, yep, that's our Morty's evil origin lmao

But the main differrnce is that Morty Prime still didn't get rid of Rick, even if he could, but he did grow up enough to "punish" Rick by tricking him into Matrix and it didn't have consequences.

It could go into a loop of Matrixes (as Morty and Summer suspect at the end of the episode) and mutual hate, but Morty wanted to pay back and Rick knew it's time to take it and step back because he knew he was in the wrong here. Rick didn't go over the top with his usual pettiness, he either lets it slide or game recognises game, and he didn't want to risk to push Morty over the edge.

They become more and more equal and it feels less like "gov'nor and subordinate" and more like "partners in crime" increasingly fast. They tend to fall back sometimes, but the power dynamics changed SO much during the last few seasons it's almost unbelievable. We went from Vat of Acid to Morty trapping Rick in Matrix and it doesn't backfire. Can you imagine it in earlier seasons? I sure can't.

the PARALLELS!!!!!

"Finally Rick turned back to him. His face was grim and Morty could see in his eyes that he was mad, and he immediately knew that he overstepped this never discussed, ghostly line where Ricks forget about their need of a sideckick. Morty instinctively backed away, and Rick followed him, a tall dark figure in a dull kitchen light. Why Morty didn't notice before how dim were all the lights? How dusty was every inch of the house? How it smelled of must and decay? Suddenly every wrong thing in the house was so on the nose that he could as well be blind before."

Is that... Jessica Materializor? They're banned in the Citadel! Freeze!

Fucking Mortytown!

Questionable Morty wandered off from @e-22912 and was caught trading in Mortytown's black market. Now he's creeping out other detained Mortys and even some Ricks in Citadel's lockup 🙄
