Unity Takes Down The President's Hive Mind | Rick and Morty | adult swim - Фільми й анімація
“Convince her I’m worth it.”
“You aren’t.”
“So lie.”
I love Dr. Wong 😂
That’s not how a therapist talks to an alcoholic, super-intelligent, depressed and suicidal client. At this point Rick needs a new one.
@@sarahriddle2241 He wouldn't respect anyone who wasn't bluntly honest with him, and consider the fact that this is a cartoon not reality, she's already written to be his perfect therapist, not the best one in a real-world situation.
@@LoudWaffle "It's not my job to pass judgement"
"You aren't worth it."
Wong is easily the worst addition to the show since she symbolizes where everything went wrong with it.
@@sarahriddle2241 Let's be real. Treating Rick is a little outside the realm of standard therapy practice. The by the books way to deal with someone that poses as much a danger to himself and others as Rick is to report him. But in this case the powers that be are explicitly not available, and even if they were, are not capable of handling Rick.
@@yurisonovab3892 What do you mean with not able to handle? Rick is not a display of real mental illness. He is capable of happiness, he has no major depression, he regularly enjoys what he is doing. He has no mental, personality, neurological or compulsive disorder whatsoever. The tone of the show would seriously shift if they included mental illness, not this romanticied watered down representation. Even his anger is mostly justified. And he is not even a narcissist. There is nothing wrong with his brain. He poses as much danger to himself as any other character. The alien presidential parallel world stuff is considered his job, so phone off during therapy sessions. He solves his own mess and his alcoholism serves as a comedic device. He has character flaws and that’s it, but he is not a patient, who is in dire need of treatment. The by the books way or standard therapy is not even required. Summer could treat him. At this point I wouldn’t even notice the difference since all Dr. Wong did was being the typical sidekick making snarky, hurtful comments. Rick can deal with it, but he can literally deal with anything, still it’s not healthy. They could’ve put in a little effort at least. If she is portrayed as a therapist she could act like one. It scares me how reallife people think that this is how a therapist should deal with mentally sick people.
The president really went to extreme lengths just to be recognized as if his title wasn’t “hey look at me I’m the president” enough
He did it because his aids told him his approval rating were so slow the only way he could win the next election would be if his approval was at 100%.
I guess it’s to keep him relevant enough
Wish our current president focused on domestic issues and paid attention to approval ratings instead of sending money outside the US!
@@SSGoatanks wish *our* current president wasn’t a meat rider and gave us a better community (Nigeria)
Well its hard to undo the damages of dictatorship
While I don't condone Rick, I see why he did not return her calls. She left a letter about why she couldn't be with him, and while it was justified, it probably really hurt his feelings. Unity might be the only character Rick had a serious relationship with since his wife’s murder so he probably held a grudge that he was abandoned.
On par with breaking up over text.
He did try to kill himself that night after reading the letter. Like, his therapist is right that he’s wrong for continuously trying to push her away after so long, but at the same time when you remember that episode it’s a lot easier to understand why Rick might not want to talk to someone like that for a while
@@raymondfisheriii791pushing her away? unity is the one who push rick in the first place! And now she eants to talk to him?
@@denysvision yes. Because back then was not a good time for them to talk. When she tried to reconnect she felt like she was in a better place and mindset. The whole reason she pushed him away was because she likely saw herself as an enabler for Rick’s reckless tendencies, and that Rick was also an enabler for hers. She didn’t want to make Rick worse, and she wanted to get better as well. She didn’t stop caring about him. Admittedly, that’s likely one of the reasons it hurt Rick more if that’s something he recognized: that she’s not wrong, and they were both enabling bad behavioral traits with one another.
@@raymondfisheriii791 When someone cuts off a relationship they are no longer entitled to the other parties attention. Full stop.
I like how Rick immediately goes "So, lie."
Man doesn't even deny it nor is he proud of it anymore, but that's worth respecting on its own.
I understand why he wanted her to lie. The earth was at stake
It looks like Unity genuinely cares about Rick even though he doesn't realize it
He doesn't care
Unity was Rick's only REAL relationship after Diane he was probably worried about letting himself get that vulnerable a third time
I mean she also ghosted him first because they both enable their worst selves when they're in contact, and she engages in stalker-like behavior in this episode while she breaks their agreement about not assimilating where he lives. Her version of caring isn't exactly great and I wouldn't trust her if I were Rick.
@JaySweetZ i mean he clearly does
@@SamanthaLain really? So if you and I exchange numbers & you call me umpteen times & leave messages and I don't respond, that's a sign of me genuinely caring about you?
I was _not_ expecting Unity to return in this episode, a total surprise.
Me neither, I was flabbergasted
gotta scrape the barrel
Should've check the messages on the phone, she left like 3 of em
@@vinceli9410so past characters returning is “scraping the barrel” nowadays huh. y’all are never satisfied lmao
no orginal ideas for episodes
The explanation of being unable to communicate change in a person is well done. That was really honest.
That’s because he’s changing slowly. Very slowly.
I'm pretty sure that's when she lied for him . . .
@@tgkafg No, I don't think she lied, I mean, why would she?
The writers: He's having a character arc, we swear!
Right, like not infrequently I wonder if an actual therapist analyzed Rick and wrote for Dr. Wong
I forgot that Unity is one of the most powerful creatures in the Rick and Morty Universe.
She's partly based off the borg go figure
@@illumi9044 RIP the Beta hive mind..lol
And still she's worries about that Rick Prime situation saying he's too Dangerous and want Rick to stop hunting him....
@@orokusaki1243Baha, let's say Unity is partially inspired by the Borg
Beta-7 just is a Borg knock off
@@kirin1230 That tom cruise one several years back had a fluid exchange. The hive mind concept is older than even TOS Star Trek. But yeah absolutely the Beta 7's are borg knockoffs. Grab a little bit from several different sources.
1:27 "So Lie" = "Rick i think youre wrong"
She lied to get Unity to feel right, which made her feel heard, which made her want to help
Some people apparently aren't getting this.
@@DJDerpyify aha remembe"r u gotta have a High IQ to understand Rick and Morty" , 😂😂
@@DJDerpyify Because the episode itself isn't making it clear in anyway that's what's happening. It's reading that Rick was 100% wrong and Unity was 100% right. If that's what was happening, great, but there's a scene missing.
@@parycartoons6840 idk that guy who started this thread seemed to get what happened.
@@parycartoons6840 It's not missing. Its hidden details. If everything has to be specified, then R&M episodes would last for an hour each.
Just how insecured the president had to be to go this far
biden approval levels of unsecure
Literally ate someones vomit
@@guillermoelninoI mean... I doubt he remember where he is most of the time.
He's a black dude.
What did you think when he changed Morty and lost.😂
@@Ezekiel_Kleyerno need to bring in someone’s race in now literally anyone can act like the president ya attention seeking dweeb
It's too bad Rick didn't hear Unity out given how far her reach is, she could've helped him find Rick Prime. 🕵🏿♂️🕵🏻♀️
If Rick could not find Rick prime I doubt that unity could
I doubt someone of Unity's capabilities can find Rick Prime. Even if she did, Rick Prime is way too crafty.
Now that you mention it she really could have
@zombiedash3373 I would argue that Unity can cover way more ground that Rick can. They are billions of beings, and Rick is just one man.
@@JumpingTunawith infinite times the amount of speed. Did you forget that he has a portal gun, which means he can travel anywhere instantly, however I still agree with you tho, I think unity could've helped rick find rick prime, though half her population would get eradicated by rick prime the second she finds him
rick's psychologist is how psychologist are supposed to be, self resolved before even attending others, that's why i like her, her acttitud, and answers, she is simply nice and pure honesty
Not really. She was really mean and judgemental in this episodes, she took side with his ex. Even though this was borderline stalking and enslaving people on a planet Rick cares about. It was also established that she would leave earth alone. I believe Dr Wong did this to appease unity, so she would help. Rick was not her client here, but a means end to save earth.
A therapist would urge their patients to reflect on their actions, without talking you down or making you feel bad about being yourself.
There is no shame in changing- yet mentioning it in front of unity makes it shameful. As if Rick was defective, Dr. Wong dragged him down and made unity feel superior, which is why she was extraordinarily mean when Rick invited her later.
Dr Wong outright tells Rick “you’re not worth it”
You don’t do that to your patients, not in a situation with so much stress involved. She was hurtful and unlike others she can tell she hurt Rick because she knows this about him:
Rick is super-intelligent, with a low self-worth and difficulties to maintain relationships. He is an alcoholic and to a degree suicidal.
Dr. Wong puts him at risk in this episode.
@@sarahriddle2241 You do realize Wong was lying and taking sides AT RICK'S REQUEST, right? Which Rick asked her to do literally less than a minute before that scene?
Wong agreed to lie because the literal Earth was at stake from an out-of-control hivemind. Her breaking her rules to save the planet is an entirely reasonable decision, and everything she says in front of Unity is meant to placate her and stroke her ego to get her to agree to help. Because, again, the entire population of Earth was in danger.
@@sarahriddle2241 She also did that right after they had a talk where Rick told her Unity was the only one who could help and that she should lie to get Unity's help.
@@davidprince6877 yes you’re right. Oh my, ..
Earth was worth saving because of Rick changing, which made him worth it. This makes Unity basically an even greater psycho and Dr Wong merely Ricks sidekick. They fight and argue over her behaviour (concerning the president), he saves her a few times, she insults him a bit, but comes around and in the end does what she is being told. Duh-Doy Rick made her his Morty. No wonder this episode and their dynamic felt slightly toxic.
@@sarahriddle2241one thing I thought I'd mention was stated in another comment on a video of this scene you can see when wong says Rick is in the wrong she looks away and then back again that shows a tick for her lying but she knew that given how this was going she had to lie to get the situation deescalated neither side was giving an inch so she had to side with unity because unity was needed to stop the bigger problem I do wish we got a bit after unity left that wong reassured Rick revealing she lied but at the same time having it be subtle I think was definitely a better way to do it it needed to be believable and both sides immediately fell for it showing how good wong is at therapy she played the side to save the world will still giving therapy it's really well done
Props to Dr Wong she handled this situation extremely well. 💁🏿♂️🙆🏻♀️
She would probably otherwise call out Unity for assimilating the entire state just because she can't get over a breakup SHE initiated, but old Wong probably figured out the situation was enough out of hand with Rick being insecure
Dr. Wong doesn't get nearly the amount of props she deserves lol
@@simple-commentator-not-rea7345Pretty much, gotta pick your battles.
@@simple-commentator-not-rea7345 Maybe I'm misinterpretting things, but Unity seems pretty fine with the breakup. She just wanted to make sure that Rick didn't y'know kill himself on the path to killing his prime self.
@@DUUDE101 even though he almost offed himself when she broke up with him
"You're Not."
Dammit, I love Wong. She's just always at her best.
If somebody dumps you they're not entitled to have a conversation with you while you're recovering from it
True. They’re not. But, they ARE entitled to express concern & quite possibly have that concern acknowledged. Had Rick checked his voicemail, BEFORE Unity landed in Virginia, then maybe none of it would’a happened!🤔✌️
@@razzle1964Had Unity just took over a single mailman she could've found Beth, Summer, or Morty's address and relay a message to Rick through them instead of taking 8 million people hostage. She ghosted him, so she's not entitled to any acknowledgement she forfeited that especially when she broke his boundaries.
@@razzle1964expressing concern and having that concern recognized, constitutes having a conversation. So, “they’re not entitled to a conversation, but they are entitled to converse wit you and have you converse back, because your need not to converse with them doesn’t matter. Your boundaries are irrelevant when they inconvenience your ex.”
@@razzle1964nope it's still harassment
@@razzle1964 Rick isn't entitled to check anything, she broke up with him, (through pen and paper no less) ghosted him, and when he was in the process of getting over it, she takes over a whole state to try and get in contact with him. Don't u find ur gf breaking up with u through text and only coming to check on u to see if u didn't off yourself or get offed patronizing?
I love how Tom was genuinely concerned for Shonda after Josh vomited into her mouth
Rick almost killed himself over Unity. It makes sense why he ghosted her.
Eh he would've killed himself staying with her. He was dragging her down with him. Her leaving just made him realize that's what he was doing and he actually attempted it for real.
Right but Rick is the only one that knows that, and there’s a chance that he may not even remember doing that with how he knocked out after having whatever poison he drank
She ghosted him first. She is literally a manipulative hypocrite.
I like how Christina Hendricks has a large endowment no matter what character she plays!
Am i the only one who thinks Curtis is a lot like Jerry. They are both insecure in themselves, yet act like the alpha male in their perspective domains. They sometimes also go through extreme lengths to prove their worth, even if it means hurting themselves and others.
Interesting thought. In a way, maybe Curtis is pre-development Jerry but with actual power
If you check the inside the episode they posted they mention him being Rick's friend since they both face similar challenges being powerful.
You mean the part of us we're suppose to develop out of around the time college spits us out? But snarky one lines aside, but that is a good character observation and brings deeper meaning to their actions when looked at that way.
Personally, I don't think Rick owed it to Unity to hear her out.
Except for the whole “this person can cause a big problem” part. Like, if your ex is having a bomb strapped to his chest then the whole “don’t answer” him advice gets a lot of caveats. Plus the whole fact she tought he was dead
Wow. Have to say, Dr. Wong handled this situation between Rick and Unity pretty well. Hats off to her.
Hard disagree, saying someone should be forced to address or get back with an ex who ghosted them and drove them to attempt suicide is actually insane.
@@AcherontiaStyxtbf she didn’t know that Rick attempted suicide
@@AcherontiaStyxfinally I was hoping someone would say it. Unity and Rick split terribly, left him in a terrible mind state and ghosted him by straight up evacuating the entire planet. Because he ignored 3 calls from an ex she thought it was reasonable to break the one boundary they set and take over all of Virginia. As bad as it sounds rick is also probably in the best shape he’s been in since years. Unity broke up with him, ghosted him, and when she couldn’t get immediate attention from him she breaks their boundaries and somehow everyone agrees its ricks fault.
@@AcherontiaStyxShe was told to convince Unity to help, and she did. Just not in a way that Rick would like
@@ethandeboer103 Im still hoping that was her lying rather than giving a genuine opinion.
Rick is not in the wrong for ignoring someone who IGNORED HIM FIRST.
Yeah, that’s fair. But it would’ve been fair for Unity to ignore him back, especially since he only listened to her when he needed something from her. He should’ve at least listened to the voicemail messages
@@MayTheOddsBeInYourFavor the whole mess happened because Unity went to Earth anyways.
None of this was Ricks fault. You don’t have to answer anyone. Rick cleaned up Unity’s mess. But The President screwed it up.
I think Dr Wong was just being a negotiator so she said what Unity want to hear in order to convince her
@@gangzilla5716He did tell her to lie
@@alexandrostheodorou8387 She left him messages on his voicemail. He was just being grumpy and curmudgeonly ignoring them. Someone hurt him so he’s gotta hurt them back. He doesn’t owe her space in his life, true but Rick likes to cut people out of his life way too easily.
Unity's return was quite the surprise after so long. I'm not sure which is more depressing though, Rick burning the bridge with Unity for good this time, or the lengths the President went to this episode after the last few seasons caught up with him.
“His response was hostile enough to cause trouble”? He was looking for Rick prime and had no obligation to tell or involved anyone else into it, not even Morty. Unity literally over reacted and took over a state just to get Ricks attention. Not to mention the way they broke up was all on Unity so this situation was handled the opposite of well.😅
He was on basically the path to suicide. Wouldn't you do everything in your power to stop them if you care about them
@@gangzilla5716 I wouldn’t say he was on THAT path and of course I would try my best to stop someone I care about from doing that. But my main point was that Unity was the problem. Rick tried giving their relationship a second shot and she broke up with him through a letter. Then used the “I was worried about you” card as an excuse to be mad at him for ghosting her.
On one hand, yes rick didn't even hear her out and just pushed her away entirely. On the other she knows him and after ignoring him, even mentioning that he was ignoring her so she really did hijack a state out of hypocritical pettiness. She ghosted him and it was fine, he didn't want to answer and it hurt so she puts him on the spot just because she's worried
3:52 All of Unity's bodies blink simultaneously? That's pretty clever!
Ok, Unity? You were completely right to dump him, but you clearly ghosted HIM first.
what ghosted mean?
@@masterofcolddark6892acting like a ghost when u send someone emails,texts and calls and he doesn’t reply back ever not even an excuse
@@masterofcolddark6892 Pretty much cutting off all communication without explanation
They had the right to. Just like Rick had the right to cut contact with them. Unity did NOT have the right to hold people hostage to get Rick's attention and force him to have a relationship with her.
@@metal6948 but she wasn't trying to force rick into a relationship, she was trying to stop him from continuing a potentially doomed quest
2:12 I fully disagree with Dr. Wong. Unity was the one who did an hostile response, mind controlling unrelated millions of persons because she was being ignored. Ghosting an ex may not be mature or educate, but it's still in his right to do and doesn't harm anyone (unlike Unity's mind control).
I want to think Hellen is trying to be condescending for Unity to win her over and convince her to help humanity...
Yeah, she showed more of a psychological skills of professional police negotiator than actual therapist.
Indeed, I also think she was just telling Unity what she wanted to hear with a dose of truth in it. Enough to convince her to help.
@@krzysztofswierzy4226 To be fair, there is a bit of overlap in those skillsets.
Maybe that, alongside voicing a personal opinion, was the cardinal sin she was alluding to before her statement, she’s wily that way.
Rick did say to lie, I just wish it was more clear if that's what she was doing. Cause as it stands it's one person who was better off after a breakup and one person who knows nothing about the breakup ganging up on someone who attempted suicide after the breakup and blaming them because they couldn't get over it as easily.
didn't see the upload date and literally thought i was watching a clip from an older episode. the voices are spot on when you aren't actively looking for flaws.
Sure you did Adult Swim bot
Idk Rick's voice stands out quite significantly
Even Morty, completely different he’s just been barely in S7 so far.
Wait for an episode where Morty is screaming oh geez oh geez and doing that crazy whine. It’s noticeable but still crazy enjoyable.
Rick's new voice isn't bad, but it seems like to pull it off, the actor has to speak at a slower cadance, and can't get very loud.
It still sounds like ai voice, and there’s a voice impressionist actor who is actually spot on, needs to get hired.
hadnt noticed the arm getting cutoff at 1:05
"Dad's still outside."
"Then stay inside, lock up, and cover your ears."
Did Unity really say 'I don't trust you' after finally getting Rick's trust back? This is why Rick doesn't open up, it's not worth to even try. She didn't even touch on the reason of why she showed up in the first place. Invaded, left, took over the world, released the world for Rick and suddenly she doesn't care? What a bad episode.
Kinda like how Rick should have had made that scent in enough bulks to cover the planet. If you are dealing with an enemy who is legion there is not such a thing as overkill. Especialy when she is insane enough to not just send one body but take over millions just to draw him out.
Ok, but even Rick understands he isn't entitled to Unity's trust after making an awkward situation into a worse one by angrily pushing Unity away and refusing to lower that barrier and then asking them to fix the situation anyway when it would cause a lot of psychic damage
@@DUUDE101 Fix a situation she caused in a first place.
@@DUUDE101Then Unity should understand that she isn't entitled to Rick's attention. If he didn't want to talk to you, move on. Why take over an entire state like a psycho stalker to get his attention? 💀
@@DUUDE101but she should be understanding of the fact that he’s in a bit of a transitional phase right now. Accepting therapy and genuinely trying to get better. Overall, it was just a really bad time for her to be pushing boundaries right now. He already had to deal with the President hitting on his therapist, which is a really uncomfortable situation for him. But after what happened with her leaving a note and bailing, she shouldn’t expect him to be receptive to her. Rick may have been problematic, but if she knew about Prime and genuinely thought it was bad, she still should have approached it differently. She doesn’t really have the right to say she cares after last time, but again, overall this was just not a good time for him. She could have at least tried to track down Morty or maybe Bird Person and setup a mutual meeting to get the message across.
1:34 Not only is Unity back, but the Zigerions are as well. Just got hit with a double whammy.
Love the little sound effect of bottles still getting moved on the floor when he accelerated his ship.
Great episode. Loved how the plot and all the tiny details wrapped into itself and such.
You know, Dr. Wong did commit a cardinal sin with her advice. Having contact with an ex after you've broken up is famously bad advice.
100%. Even worse, this ex threw a tantrum and held tons of people hostage. The message this episode sent is DANGEROUS. If your ex behaves violently after you chose to set boundaries and cut contact for your own health, you need to stay far away from them. And the fact that this therapist not only sided with Unity but guilt tripped Rick for setting boundaries is just disgusting. If this is how the writer of this episode feels about exes cutting contact because they feel that the relationship was unhealthy, then those are some MAJOR 🚩🚩🚩
Are you dumb? Wong's goal is to convince Unity to help earth. Not give the best advice. Uhmmm
She's a negotiator here, and an assimilation on a global scale is happening, she can’t afford to do a normal therapy section
Well he did tell her to lie
@@metal6948 It wasn't a tantrum, Unity was basically trying to stop Rick from killing himself by going after Rick Prime. People are acting like Unity was just being butthurt over Rick not answering her calls, and that this has something to do with their prior romantic relationship.
I forgot how hot unity was but wow didn't know Dr. Wong had much more to her.
If there had to be a pairing for Rick, him and Unity would definitely be the one I'd choose
Ok I am amazed by the animation for the scense
they feel like season 5 ending type and they are amazing
so simple but so well done NIce
Ricks Therapist was wrong.
It’s completely justified to not reconnect with an Ex.
Dr. Wong is becoming my favorite character in the show.
for being wrong?
Shes a slog to listen to on top of using manipulative logic that the show doesn't acknowledge and instead treats as correct. Great character. These new season 3 and beyound writers really knocking it out of the park with their favorite self insert.

I usually don't defend Rick, but I think Doctor Wong was in the wrong on this to be honest. He should not be obligated to listen to her calls, especially after what happened between them.
yeah but she was worried about his life. That’s an escalation
@@rudysantayana4252 It's his choice to ignore the messages. It's his business. She also basically said she didn't want to be around him (for valid reasons) through a note during their last visit. He doesn't need to respond if he doesn't want to.
To be fair, she was trying to convince Unity to help them, and I don't think defending Rick would have helped.
@@rudysantayana4252okay and just because someone is "worried about their life" doesnt mean they are obligated to be in their life. Do you have any idea how many exes play that card? Wherher valid or invalid, she dumped rick. She doesnt get to be involved in his life anymore unless he allows it. Rick not answering his phone calls is rick not allowing her back into his life.
@@jseeker1867 She could have addressed a compromise like that instead of saying Rick was wrong for not answering her messages
Exes just sort of pop back into your life. A bittersweet interaction, but one that you miss and want to push yourself away from at the same time.
Facts gotta divorce hearing this Friday lmao
i'm sorry to hear that broski. Hope you can take the time to grieve and heal. Good luck @@OlliWitta3_
Rick was not wrong. Unity has no right to his progress or change. They aren’t a thing anymore. Being concerned for him doesn’t give her the right to do anything she did. Rick was respecting boundaries Unity set in her first episode, enforced his own boundaries that Unity ignored, and then she’s pulling this “Look what you made me do” gaslighting on him.
She knew not to come to Earth and do this hive mind stuff. She knew she would have to release these people when she decided to control them.
I liked this episode but in my perspective, everyone BUT Rick dropped the ball. Nothing was accomplished, Unity picks and chooses when she wants to be involved in Rick’s life when she knows how codependent they become with each other, Wong was out of character for her assessment in who was right.
It was fine for her to want to check up on Rick but that’s about all the credit I can give her. She got a pass last time for making the most of a self destructive planet, I guess, but she just took over a whole state of normal people because she didn’t want to take the hint that maybe Rick was finally done with you. Like you wanted him to be…?
He told her to lie. He never told her what lie to tell.
Remember that Harmon writes in Circles. Little Circles, medium Circles, and even big Circles.
These first 3 episodes are small circles of the big circle. Rick is going to need friends, if he is going to take out Rick Prime.
@@orokusaki1243 That’s fine and true, but it still doesn’t change that there was probably any number of ways they could have written the episode to make your point make sense. Unity was already positioned as someone who didn’t hate Rick. She loves him but knows they need boundaries. That was established in her first episode and they’re still kind of in the same place relationship-wise. Wong has always been there for Rick and his progress and this was the first episode where she straight up says he isn’t worth it (which is excusable cause she’s a cartoon therapist and not real). The only person who really seems like more of a friend to Rick at the end of this is the President, and they didn’t need to bring back Unity to establish that. So, just seems like weird choices to me. But I’ll just see how the season goes
@@pumpkincoffee983 Under intense scrutiny, many things can be subject to breaking down logically, or otherwise may defy expectations.
Don't see how Rick is wrong...Unity dumped him and they were toxic together. Rick is considered a bad influence on Unity...He shouldn't be the one to blame for not responding to her calls.
"So lie." 1:23
So lie
I feel like its a half truth kind of lie. It is genuinly cruel to ghost somebody who is at the moment genuinly afraid for your life and has reason to fear self-harm, but she left out Unitys wrongs and misbehavior that lead to the situation because her job at the moment was to convince her, not genuinly treat them. Him not getting it is basically just another case of Rick being the smartest idiot in the multiverse.
The more we have Wong along the more Rick feels like a tsundere.
As well as the VA for Rick did in this ep, it's a real shame we won't get that authentic rick scream moments anymore 😞
What I'm truly appreciating about these new actors is they NAIL the emotional tones of these characters same as the other guy.
Hang on. When Rick enters the spaceship with Unity on it, am I seeing some of the Zigerion scammers? The ones that tried to get the formula for concentrated dark matter from Rick by trapping him inside a simulation?
Edit: I just compared the ships of the Zigerions and Unity. They are almost identical. What a throwback.
Yep
😂😂😂 bruh I saw those too, and I was like......oh, she assimilated them too
I'm hoping the therapist here only said that to get unity to agree to help, she did say "I'm breaking a carnal rule of couples counseling", before speaking to unity after all. Cuz let's not forget Unity ghosted Rick first and left him in a terrible state of mind which caused him to contrmplate suicide.
Didn't Rick ignore unity in season 2 when they met again and not wanting to listen to her which led to some of the stuff that happened in that episode
Ok I’m adding something. Rick’s therapist saying Rick is wrong, is the definition of toxicity. Helen saying that because Rick ghosted Unity, it caused the problem of Unity making a big deal and invading a planet is dumb. Unity ghosted their break up, if Rick chose not to respond to her calls why should he be blamed? Then to have Helen say that Rick caused the massive problem is ridiculous. That’s equivalent of someone ghosting me on social media, then I post about it to get their attention. And I still say they’re the problem. Yeah bullsh*t!!
Yano what, the new guy who does the voice for Rick is doing a good job so far 👏
Love that the fortune cookie episode actually paid off here. It was both a surprise and not one to see this coming.
This is why head-doctors deserve as much respect as medical doctors.
Assuming they are healed, themselves?
she was literally wrong in every single word she spoke.
this show is an empty shell of its former self
I love how Unity had to be the one to convert the President! I wonder if she does that to all planets, save the leaders for her personal self?
Rick had every right to ignore those calls
Didn't think Unity would be back
I love wong so much, she such a chill character
Bruh, the literal "in Unision" blink at Rick's terrible joke had me dying!
"Call in a chopper. I'm being c*ck-blocked!" was the first big guffaw I got from this season.
Not the worst season (looking at you gigant incestbaby naruto) but the writting has really gone down this season, feel lifeless
i can't believe Dr wong's name is helen it's so fitting.
President Keith David is a national treasure lmao
I absolutely love Unity, everytime she’s in a episode I’m a very happy person :3
This Rick sounds sleepy :( needs to pickup the cadence.
man I still think every official clip is a fan dub
I'm thinking that in a future episode there should be a war between Glorzo and Unity with Rick and Morty (Summer, actually) trying to broker peace between them. This would absolutely track well.
Awesome Rick and Morty Video.
This episode a episode 2 were both bangers tbh. Looking forward to next week
Agreed!
I hate it ever since Justin Roiland stopped voicing Rick and Morty.
It's so annoying that it's made to seem like Rick is in the wrong here
We really need a death battle between Unity and MR. Frundles
Unity is back? Awesome!
yo anyone else notice how different ricks voice is?
Unity being there for Rick and helping him even though he doesn't deserve it hits hard for anyone who has hurt the person they love and that person stood by them still.
"Season 7 is going to be all about us chasing Rick Prime". Boy did Rick like on that. They'll save it for the l;ast episode as usual.
This new Rick VA is slowly growing on me.
Respect guys! You did it! The show got even better!!!!
Wait i'm confused is there multiple ricks that are going after rick prime? because this unity isn't ricks 137's one.
I like to think this s the same unity, like she travelled the multiverse
That would be an interesting movie idea. Hive mind vs Hive mind.
If she dumps you, you should absolutely ghost her. 😊
It’s hard for me to really blame Rick for any of this, as it’s not a crime to not want to talk to someone. Getting dumped is ROUGH and just hearing them talk hurts so I don’t see how Rick is at fault for not trusting unity. I feel like she should’ve taken the hint and gave him the space he clearly wanted
They got the concept of hiveminds completely wrong. It's not mind control by 1 person, it's just a mass connection making them all 1 person
Hiveminds aren't real, I think they get to write them however they want Lol
Rick just sounds depressed now
this was my favorite episode this season
i miss Justin...
He shouldn't have dm'd those teenage girls.
This episode made me question the multiverse logic of everything. Yes this universe is just like their old ones but they died and the Parmesan thing, but I thought our Rick was the only one that Rick prime killed his daughter, so who does this unity know about Rick prime if she isn’t Rick’s original unity.
agreed, it's sloppy writing. nothing new for rick and morty
I've always had this issue with Bird Person especially because the show always treats the BP that shows up like the original BP that Rick remembers.... but Rick's in a new universe (he's switched universes at least twice since he was in his 30s so that BP is probably gone) so that can't be the case.
The ONLY thing I can think is that there's a difference between the multiversal stuff we're used to seeing and different timelines (like the two newscasters from the City of Ricks that had the same universe number but different letters).
Idk. The show tries to both have our Rick be the only Rick to do XYZ, but then will have him hop to a new timeline/universe where the Rick from that universe is allegedly the exact same as him except conveniently dies. And yet, its not possible for those dead Ricks to have the same past as our Rick (they didn't all face Evil Morty). How are there multiple universes where BP is his friend? How are there multiple universes where he dated Unity while looking for Rick Prime?
Maybe our Rick isn't as special as we're always told and maybe there are multiple versions of the City of Ricks (by multiverse theory there SHOULD be).
@ameliawilliams305 I always took it as the citadel of ricks was a place outside the boxed in multiverse that rick created. We see it has the chamber that holds all the universes where rick is the smartest being.
It's also worth remembering that rick was already not in his original universe when we meet him in S1, so the birdperson and unity that we meet aren't even his original versions of them either. That's why its kind of weak when he insists on going into BP's mind to save him rather than pluck another one out of the multiverse, and this unity connection to prime rick is also kind of hindered because of it.
The switching timelines thing really got old after the second time and I'm glad that with this show fans can still theorize reasons for things but every time I think about it too much it just comes back to lazy writing
Dr. Wong is the real reason for another way home LOL
Writer self-insert first schooled the rick and now saved the world...
We all need Dr. Wong in our lives
Vomiting zombies?! What next, Ninja Shark-People?
I mean... Maybe? I bet Mr. Nimbus would have them.
One thing I didn't like about this is how Rick isn't allowed to cope with isolation. Unity shows up like a scorned ex and basically moves into his neighbor's house until getting Rick's attention. Then it's played off like Rick is the bad guy for not answer their calls.
Unity couldn't take a hint. That's not Rick's fault.
I think after Birdperson, Dr. Wong might just be the best friend Rick has ever had.
Is it just me, or is there a distinct lack of Morty in this season?
Right! This show is called Rick AND Morty. But so far this season, they haven't really done anything on screen together. No sci-fi adventures. No working together to track down Rick Prime. But the season's not over yet, so we'll see
The trailer had rick saying "rick and Morty, we're back baby!" For a reason, meaning maybe as of now, well they aren't back, it has something to do with last season, maybe rick is afraid of getting attached, and he is currently trying to improve himself through therapy, plus dont forget Morty has a little side gig, he sells crystals for rick and for himself, he may also be trying to distance himself from rick.
This episode was peak never thought we would’ve seen unity again
"Goddamnit but your ship was just..."
"You have your gimmicks, I have mine."
Surprised I don't see any comments on this hilarious "It's a TV show deal with it" line 😂
Until this very moment, I didn't realize how much I love Susan Sarandon.
Dr Wong was too hard on Rick. A person who broke-up with u shouldn't expect u to answer their calls. Taking over a whole state bc u got ghosted, especially when u left 1st, is crazy.
So lie
At one point does the President get kicked out over doing stuff like this? Actually, how long has it been in universe since he got elected?
Same as the real world president…
