personally i think this is a set up for rick never having left the family, instead i theorise that rick erased himself from there lives. that is why he has memories of baby morty and is seen at his 13th birthday despite the creators having said he came back when morty was 14
13:05 "why would rick want to remove Morty's memory of losing his virginity?" King Jellybean tried to raped him on their first morty led adventure. Maybe that's what it was?
More unbelievable than intelligent squirrels ruling the world is that such influential high level ones would be encountered so casually in the open, lol
wow no one is talking about the ziptie magnet scene... when Morty messed with it, and copies of Jessica came splattering all over the garage... My horrified favorite!
Madocvalanor I think it’s not quite so dark. Rick needs Morty to be insecure but willing to take risks. Morty wanting to loose his virginity helps this. If Morty remembers loosing it then he might be more confident and less likely to take risks.
I think this episode could also relate to the theory that Evil morty is ricks original morty. And how he used this machine to clear some of morty's memories so that he wouldnt end up like evil morty. This could be rick learning from his mistakes.
yeah thats been my headcanon ever since we saw that episode, and the images of rick holding him as a baby even though he wasnt there for our morty i like the idea that he's the morty in the intro who gets left behind to monsters as rick jumps into a portal
After watching a RicknMorty episode, we must watch atleast 10 different videos to understand all the subtle jokes and hidden meaning. Got hooked to rick n morty after seeing their alien covenant featurettee.
i remember being hype for interdimensional cable only for them to end up doing morty's mind blowers it made rick's statement "we're doing this instead" extra funny
That weird maze thing where it goes sideways upside down etc is also a gravity falls reference as in the physical version of journal 3 that was sold, stanford is shown chasing bill cipher through that same area
UNDER THE INFLUENCE: The futuristic spaceship design Rick sends the Jodie Foster-in-"Contact"-like character is a dead ringer for the capsule spaceships used in Dragon Ball Z.
There is some merit to the idea that the author of a work of art has no special authority on interpretation of that art - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Death_of_the_Author Just because an author intended a certain meaning, it does not follow that the audience will get that intended meaning from a work.
While I don't recall who invented memory erasing as a concept... there are many shades of references, some of which are more like cultural influences, so assumed they're almost invisible
I thought it was interesting that the tools/technology used to wipe memories looked a lot like that machine that rick used at the end of the Unity episode where it looks like he’s trying to kilo himself.
Did anyone catch the Yellow and Green memory vials? It seems the Yellow ones are full Morty personalities/base memories from what we see when Summer uses the "restore" vials.
Another cool Easter egg was that in the season premiere, to escape the galactic prison he had to swap minds and leave some of his knowledge behind. So in this episode he gets all his memories back including how to improvise, which he lost.
No one ever wins those contests, and if someone does it's usually a person loosely associated with the contest promoters. The McDonalds Monopoly game scam is a good example. The reason they want to do the give away on twitter is so when they look for advertising they can say they have "x" amount of followers.
If u compares gravity falls last episode with the last sence when stanford did a mind eraser on bill ciper and stan pines as hes dressed like stanford its weird that this episode shows those 2 memories and plus doesnt the mind eraser in gravity falls looks similar to the one that rick used or look like those capsules that stores those memories
"This was season 3's-" *Pauses at **0:07* Morty: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! (I don't know how I did it, but I paused it when it was transitioning, & it was horrifying..)
Anyone else think the mind-blower with Gobo (when the four kids are riding bikes around) is a possible reference to Stranger Things? Four kids (two white boys, one black boy, and one white girl) ride around on their bikes running from the government to protect an alien? Really similar but a bit of a stretch as the girl in Stranger Things is the alien but in this mind-blower the alien is someone else. Still tho.
4:18 That's the Dragon Turtle God Asura from the Roguelike RPG Dragon Fin Soup! I love that game! I recommend it to whomever wants something weird. It's on Steam for whoever wants to play it.
OK, so what I gather is that Mr Lunas went to the moon to steal the flag that was up there, which he later planted in his front yard, and was later draped on his coffin. But all that does is bring up even more questions. First and foremost, how was he able to zero-in on the one person on Earth that was looking at him at that exact moment? Was Rick involved in covering up his existence, and supposed death? Was it just for Morty's sake? Did Rick put the smudge on the telescope, or someone else that was also trying to cover up Mr Lunas' existence?
When Rick was in the zigerion's simulator he ran through a simulation of the moon landing. Perhaps there will be more subtle cues in the future to tie up the loose ends on the moon conspiracy.
You missed that the ENTIRE episode was a reference to the Gravity Falls episode "Society of the Blind Eye" you know with the memory erasing gun that stores it into a vial that can later be used by a machine to view that memory. Pfft oh I know it was just a little itty bittie thing to over look after all it was just the premise of the entire episode!
Interesting fact to ALSO confirm the theory that this is the alternate reality R&M that contains the 4th wall breaks and Mr Poopybutthole. This Rick is much more careless and reckless with his experiments: the alien parasite eggs; the life support switch and many other subtle clues point to this Rick as the "4th wall Rick" or the reckless Rick.
Fun fact, Lunis is either the Pural Dative or Plural Ablative form of Luna. If Dative, it means "To/For the Moons." If Ablative, it's "By/With/From the Moons." This could mean that Mr. Lunis is from the moon or part of a secret group that protects moons. It would line up with your theory that Mr. Lunis wasn't actually a marine and that the whole thing was faked.
06:50 another influence for this scene might be Lovecraft. Lovecraft's stories are set in a cold and indifferent universe, and his gods live in cities with weird geometry and their shapes can drive humans mad. So after experiencing "true level", Morty sees the universe as the lunatic place it is.
I don't know why but I couldn't stop laughing at the part where morty beats rick in checkers then he erases his memory ahaha. That's so evil
Yeah me too, it cracked me out 😂😂😂😂
Snuffles?
Snuffles?
*Snuffles was his slave name.*
I just call him Snowball, because his fur is pretty and white.
Also, I don't where his testicles are.
You mean ruffles
*Where are my testicles summer?*
@@OxiigenV2 yes
At (13:50) - "Notice When Rick Makes Fun Of Rick" :-D
I just pointed that out too granted mine's a lot later than yours but it was still funny
personally i think this is a set up for rick never having left the family, instead i theorise that rick erased himself from there lives. that is why he has memories of baby morty and is seen at his 13th birthday despite the creators having said he came back when morty was 14
omg, would love if Evil Morty arrives in that Dimension looking for them, only to be attacked by all those Squirrels XD
That's a great idea
Ryan Powell omg i would love to see that sht
mind blower
Brilliant! Then the squirrels somehow get to the citadel to take it over. Boom. Legendary battle between them and the Ricks and Mortys.
Are u 7?
13:05 "why would rick want to remove Morty's memory of losing his virginity?" King Jellybean tried to raped him on their first morty led adventure. Maybe that's what it was?
if this isnt the Same Rick and Morty we always follow maybe in this universe king Jelly bean actually Rapes him? idk lol
Morty had sex with a robot and had a baby gazorpafield remember?
Adro Rodriguez I feel like that doesn't count. That's like using a sex toy, it's not a real living being so I don't think he lost it there
In this episode Rick says the names on the tube are random and don't mean anything about what the memories actually are.
Isn't it more likely it's just a random reference to Grandma's Virginity Podcast, which Justin Roiland and Ryan Ridley used to do together?
True level floor was my favourite mind blower
DrLisandro same it was hilarious
MrGbere777 thanks, edited:)
same, probably because i would have reacted the same way lmao
OH MY GOD I LOVED IT XD
My favorite overall was the light switch.
"Grab a shovel!" *click* "What was that?!"
First time I watched this ep, I couldn't stop laughing the "we got a possible Dolittle" line and that whole story!
It's very fucked up that Beth actually admitted that she rather sacrifice Morty than Summer........
Welcome To Rick And Morty!!!!!!
Pennywise Pennywise if it was up to Beth it would be Rick and Summer
It's not that she chose Summer, who wouldn't? It is how fast she made the choice what is fucked up.
Revujo agreed it's fucked up no matter who she picks
Revujo I would pick morty
Pennywise Pennywise I think it’s so Rick stays and doesn’t goto a different universe
Roiland also references men in black, oh and he also roasts your channel when trying to read too much into a detail. “Yeah, save it for UA-cam”
Favorite one was the "take things for granite" lmfao
Mentions Jessica, shows a picture of Jacqueline.
The joke was really obvious -_-
YEha i noticed that too
Lauti Soriano clearly wasn’t
I was trying to watch this while falling to sleep. that reverse speaking terrifys me
13:50 "notice when Rick makes fun of Rick". How'd that mistake happen?
THEORY CONFIRMED MORTY=YOUNGER RICK
I'm glad someone else noticed it
Eh...humans tend to make them
My question is why Jerry is in NONE of these memories.
Dan Smith well rick said he did some changes to the memories to make it more interesting.
Because he crossed Rick!
He was in the Jerry care day during those moments.
Postcredit memory?
He's most likely not memorable enough to have such a heavy impact.
we didn't get another interdimesional
cable episode
cause of morty...
godammit morty
Good.. because they were getting stale..
To be fair, the sequel wasn't that good. They were going over the top with improvisation.
He's entitled to invoke his right to his own adventure every ten adventures, although he did just have Vindicators 3.
Well we all know that Morty is a dumb little shit, so what are ya gonna do?
FlowDeBandoler0 what? Season 3 is awesome the first episode was lacking but it was just as good as both other seasons
Save it for UA-cam. And, well, here it is...
How did they miss that!
Save what?
Morty says that to Rick when Rick is about to go into detail about MIB II
i thought the squirrels memory was a reference to Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, in which mice created the earth
The squirrels also were voiced by the guys of Pinky and the Brain.
More unbelievable than intelligent squirrels ruling the world is that such influential high level ones would be encountered so casually in the open, lol
"When Rick makes fun of rick" lol he messed up at 13:50
Marco Avalos I caught that too
Marco Avalos OMG guys, morty is rick confirmed!!!1!
I came to comment that and found this
He gotta clear that from our memories
Celler Celleriac fr 😂
wow no one is talking about the ziptie magnet scene... when Morty messed with it, and copies of Jessica came splattering all over the garage... My horrified favorite!
Obviously, Morty wished for hot and sexy redheads.
jmchez I’m pretty sure he typed in Jessica and a bunch of red headed Jessica’s showed up. Watch that clip and listen to what he typed in
k!nG FashionBug69 see I thought he typed boobies cause all the red heads have ample amount of breast
I thought he typed redhead XD
Hot girl maybe?
Not gunna lie, my favorite Morty Memory was Rick skiing into a tree...i laughed WAY to hard at that...
Morty's head on Snuffles' body is a fairly clear reference to Mars Attacks.
Jameson Miller didn't "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" do it first?
m.imdb.com/title/tt0077745/parentalguide/frightening
Paul Belanger Maybe, reference to a reference then.
This was the "Society Of The Blind Eye" of Rick and Morty.
The virginity Vial: Remember king jelly bean? Yeah this morty didn't fight him off and blames rick for his rape.
oh shit thats gotta be it
Madocvalanor wasnt it a red vial? Meaning Rick wanted it removed
Thought it was that sexbot he lost his virginity to. Rick wasn't too happy about the results
Madocvalanor I think it’s not quite so dark. Rick needs Morty to be insecure but willing to take risks. Morty wanting to loose his virginity helps this. If Morty remembers loosing it then he might be more confident and less likely to take risks.
They are so leading up to a Gravity Falls and Rick and Morty crossover.
cale james Disney has the rights to gravity falls, sorry
lol I highly doubt that but u never know
not only does Disney owns gravity falls a rick and morty episode without swearing other things would not go with Gravity falls
Doggo not if they come to the Rick and Morty universe
I hope they don't
BILL CYPHER IS STILL GETTING REFERENCES?! HE'S COMING BACK!!
A Dumbo Octopus it's spelled cipher journal 3 confirmed it.
If a crossover happens i freak
I think this episode could also relate to the theory that Evil morty is ricks original morty. And how he used this machine to clear some of morty's memories so that he wouldnt end up like evil morty. This could be rick learning from his mistakes.
yeah thats been my headcanon ever since we saw that episode, and the images of rick holding him as a baby even though he wasnt there for our morty
i like the idea that he's the morty in the intro who gets left behind to monsters as rick jumps into a portal
Honorable mention: 14:34 Rick says, what he says. It could be a reference to Hamsters in Butt people.
Is anyone going to point out that the armour Rick and Morty are wearing looks a lot like Saiyan battle armour?
Jarred Madsen I
It's armor not amour
google it :)
Fetch my armor from the armoire mi amore
I would have to guess that it is designed after Mandalorian armor.
This channel does this better than the other channels that do this. Subbed.
khgameplayer nope. I thought that too but theres a better channel and it doesnt have the annoying quid ad
Emergency Awesome
But That's None Of My Business Wow! Would have been cool to know the name huh?
Emergency awesome is fine but makes some mistakes. These guys do their research.
khgameplayer such as gamespotuniverse...
After watching a RicknMorty episode, we must watch atleast 10 different videos to understand all the subtle jokes and hidden meaning. Got hooked to rick n morty after seeing their alien covenant featurettee.
i remember being hype for interdimensional cable only for them to end up doing morty's mind blowers
it made rick's statement "we're doing this instead" extra funny
Bird person's grandmother fought with a squirrel to get the wedding ring
oooohhh! SHIT DOG!!!!
That weird maze thing where it goes sideways upside down etc is also a gravity falls reference as in the physical version of journal 3 that was sold, stanford is shown chasing bill cipher through that same area
UNDER THE INFLUENCE: The futuristic spaceship design Rick sends the Jodie Foster-in-"Contact"-like character is a dead ringer for the capsule spaceships used in Dragon Ball Z.
The rings from whirly dirly can also be a call back to Acceleracers
To me, the suicide countdown by Rick and Morty is a reference to the Columbine shooters and how they killed themselves
Bruno Petrone deep
Dark theory. Nice.
This. This. This is what rockstar is.
Idk that seems to be reaching
It's just a basic double suicide thing it's too broad to say it is a reference to that
I believe there's gonna be an episode later where Morty's gonna have to take all the mindblowers to get strong enough to fight evil Morty
This is quickly becoming my favorite series on UA-cam.
My favorite was Morty 'torturing' that alien and Ricks response to Mortys reaction
These are all cool, but I honestly think people look way too deep into this. Even Justin Roiland tells people "it's just a cartoon"
There is some merit to the idea that the author of a work of art has no special authority on interpretation of that art - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Death_of_the_Author Just because an author intended a certain meaning, it does not follow that the audience will get that intended meaning from a work.
@@jebeda some people overthink these things..
13:51 "notice when rick makes fun of rick"
I LOVED THIS EPISODE!!!
My favorite mind blower is the "true level" memory. The way that rick comforts him.
Its also a big nod to "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" .... Right? The whole memory erasing concept?
While I don't recall who invented memory erasing as a concept... there are many shades of references, some of which are more like cultural influences, so assumed they're almost invisible
When I watched that episode I thought my entire life it was “don’t take things for granite” when I watched this I figured out it was granted
I thought it was interesting that the tools/technology used to wipe memories looked a lot like that machine that rick used at the end of the Unity episode where it looks like he’s trying to kilo himself.
"what was that" (flicking light switch)
My fave was when morty was possessed, they were supposed to be loving him and they turned and started poking fun at him... HILARIOUS 😂😂😂
That's not Jessica...
Did anyone catch the Yellow and Green memory vials? It seems the Yellow ones are full Morty personalities/base memories from what we see when Summer uses the "restore" vials.
Another cool Easter egg was that in the season premiere, to escape the galactic prison he had to swap minds and leave some of his knowledge behind. So in this episode he gets all his memories back including how to improvise, which he lost.

This is my must have video after each episode!!
AWESOME JOB and keep goin!
Cheers
In the gravity falls journal bill actually chases Stanford in the laberynth esc area
Oh yea...
03:40 - why aren't we seeing Jessica, when the memories could concern her? :D

I was thinking the turtle was related to Discworld. Esp bc Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman work together so often.
*worked
Was just about to comment saying "Worked" ha.
R.I.P Mr.Pratchett
Gusstaff Camileri yea :(
All Hail The Great A'Tuin.
How we not gonna talk about when Morty summons a bunch of redheads like Rick summoned a ziptie... f-ing hilarious
So. Many. References.
"Notice when Rick makes fun of Rick for saying it like take things for granted"😂the irony
4:18 That's the Dragon Turtle God Asura from the Roguelike RPG Dragon Fin Soup! I love that game! I recommend it to whomever wants something weird. It's on Steam for whoever wants to play it.
The Light Switch one was great. So simple and goddamn funny
My favorite one is the one about the alien who killed himself
lunes is monday in spanish, both references to the moon or "luna" on spanish
luna->lunes
moon->monday
lune->lundi
mind = blown
The Illuminati squirrels were awesome!
13:51 "NOtice how rick makes fun of rick for saying.."
"First when rick makes fun of rick for saying dont take things for granite"
Check yaself before ya wreck yaself
Wassermelon Games I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who saw that
OK, so what I gather is that Mr Lunas went to the moon to steal the flag that was up there, which he later planted in his front yard, and was later draped on his coffin.
But all that does is bring up even more questions.
First and foremost, how was he able to zero-in on the one person on Earth that was looking at him at that exact moment?
Was Rick involved in covering up his existence, and supposed death? Was it just for Morty's sake?
Did Rick put the smudge on the telescope, or someone else that was also trying to cover up Mr Lunas' existence?
13:55 Saiyan Power armour from Dragonball Z?
That memory's partially inspired by Star Wars.
The spaceship ball is a saiyan pod, and morty looks like hes going super saiyan
Looks like it
Mandalorian armor, most likely
13:50 "when rick makes fun of rick"
First
Letter in the alphabet is A
“Lunas” is Spanish for moons btw, could’ve been a reference to how he is also or is a part of a moon
i cant be the only one who didnt see morty as a ghost?,
when Morty puts the infinity magnet to "hot redheads" is really funny considering he and rick have the same type.
Does no one think that Bill C. could also be Bill Cosby and a really dark joke?
The interrogation one was my absolute favorite.
gotta pay the bills really quick.. hahaha
Who else noticed the 2 Dragon Ball Z references? 1 - The Saiyan Pod and 2 - The Saiyan armor (in black)
Mind Blowers episode was by far better than Inter-Dimensional Cable
No it wasn't, cause you can see in the episode a heisenberg-millford tachyonconverter, which they sayd, are not possible in theyr dimension
Don't mess with squirrels.
Magnetic Redheads!!!!
Grab a shovel, GRAB A SHOVEL! *flicked switch*
WHAT WAS THAT?!
When Rick was in the zigerion's simulator he ran through a simulation of the moon landing. Perhaps there will be more subtle cues in the future to tie up the loose ends on the moon conspiracy.
At 13:52, did no one realise he said ‘notice when Rick makes fun of Rick for saying it as ‘Take things for granite’?
I loved the true level one
You missed that the ENTIRE episode was a reference to the Gravity Falls episode "Society of the Blind Eye" you know with the memory erasing gun that stores it into a vial that can later be used by a machine to view that memory. Pfft oh I know it was just a little itty bittie thing to over look after all it was just the premise of the entire episode!
when rick makes fun of rick for saying “taking things for grannit”
granite
Did anyone else mention that the flag 'Mr Loonis' was hanging up looked damaged like it had been on the moon for 40+ years?
Did anyone catch the mr meeseeks and dbz references tho
Justin Scott I missed the dragon ball one. What was it.
FatLikeSnorlax ! The way there armor was it closely resembles vegeta and nappas armor when they invaded earth
Classic Saiyan armors.
Justin Scott hay the space ship that rick told the scientists to build looks like the space pods that vegeta and nappa used to travel to earth
Sebastian Arzola as do the "escape pods" they fly home in from the whirly dirly episode...
14:33 "you fucked with squirrels morty!" Don't they usually blank out swear words ? 😂
Ok maybe im just dumb but can someone pls explain to me the lightswitch one
like I was so confused...
Potato rick was conducting some experiment on a bunch of people on the other side of the universe. Their life support was controlled by that switch
Interesting fact to ALSO confirm the theory that this is the alternate reality R&M that contains the 4th wall breaks and Mr Poopybutthole. This Rick is much more careless and reckless with his experiments: the alien parasite eggs; the life support switch and many other subtle clues point to this Rick as the "4th wall Rick" or the reckless Rick.
Fun fact, Lunis is either the Pural Dative or Plural Ablative form of Luna. If Dative, it means "To/For the Moons." If Ablative, it's "By/With/From the Moons." This could mean that Mr. Lunis is from the moon or part of a secret group that protects moons. It would line up with your theory that Mr. Lunis wasn't actually a marine and that the whole thing was faked.
Hey there
That Smelly Smell That Smells Smelly sup
Is Rather Smell Filled Full Of Smells That Smell Smellily Smellfull
06:50 another influence for this scene might be Lovecraft. Lovecraft's stories are set in a cold and indifferent universe, and his gods live in cities with weird geometry and their shapes can drive humans mad. So after experiencing "true level", Morty sees the universe as the lunatic place it is.
