8->''"Listen to me, Morty. I know that new situations can be intimidating. You're lookin' around, and it's all scary and different, but y'know… m-meeting them head-on, charging into 'em like a bull—that's how we grow as people. I'm no stranger to scary situations, I deal with them all the time. Now if you just stick with me, Morty, [[[StealthyColossus a horrific alien monstrosity sneaks up behind Morty]]] we're gonna be— HOLY CRAP, MORTY, RUN!! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE, MORTY, RUN!!

So now we’re gonna have to go get more. And then we’re gonna go on even more adventures after that, Morty. And you’re gonna keep your mouth shut about it, Morty. Because the world is full of idiots that don’t understand what’s important. And they’ll tear us apart, Morty. But if you stick with me, I’m gonna accomplish great things, Morty. And you’re gonna be part of them. And together, we’re gonna run around, Morty. We’re gonna- do all kinds of wonderful things, Morty. Just you and me, Morty. The outside world is our enemy, Morty. We’re the only *URP* friends we’ve got, Morty. It’s just Rick and Morty. Rick and Morty and their adventures, Morty. Rick and Morty forever and forever. 100 years, Rick and Morty, some things.

20'''Jerry:''' You know what, Rick?! Those guys took you for a ride, too! You should try having a bit of respect for the dummies of the universe, now that you're one of us.\

36'''Morty:''' ''[points outside]'' THAT, out there? That's my grave.\
37'''Summer:''' ''[confused]'' Wait, what?\
38'''Morty:''' On one of our adventures, Rick and I basically destroyed the whole world. So we bailed on that reality and we came to this one. Because in this one, the world wasn't destroyed. And in this one, we were dead. So we came here, a-an-an-and we buried ourselves and we took their place. And every morning, Summer, I eat breakfast 20 yards away from my own rotting corpse!\
39'''Summer:''' So... you're not my brother?\
40'''Morty:''' I'm better than your brother. I'm a version of your brother you can trust when he says, "Don't run." Nobody exists on purpose. Nobody belongs anywhere. Everybody's gonna die. ''[beat]'' ...Come watch TV?''

50'''Summer:''' You're excited about that?\
51'''Rick:''' The first rule of space travel, kids, is always check out distress beacons. Nine out of ten times, it's a ship full of dead aliens and a bunch of free shit!\
52'''Summer and Morty:''' Whoa!\
53'''Rick:''' One out of ten times, it's a deadly trap, but I'm ready to roll those dice.

60->''"Um, first of all, hello. Uh, my name is Blim Blam the Korblok. Second of all, cards on the table, I'm a murderer that eats babies, and I came to this planet to eat babies. However, I am also carrying a highly infectious disease that I suppose you could call "space AIDS" as you put it, and Rick did chain me up so that he could attempt to cure it. [Beth serves Jerry] At the same time, Rick's motivation to cure my disease was not to save my life or anyone else's, but to patent and sell the cure for billions of Blemflarcks. [Jerry serves back] But you know the reason why I ripped my chains out of the wall? [confronts them] And do you know why I'm never coming back to this planet?! BECAUSE THE TWO OF YOU ARE THE FUCKING WORST!!! You both hate yourselves AND each other!! And the idea that it has ANYTHING to do with Rick is laughable. I'd laugh but I'm biologically incapable. That's how alien I am! And even I'm sitting here listening to the two of you and being like, "WHAT THE FUCK!?!" So good luck with your shitty marriage, and tell Rick I'm sorry he has to deal with EITHER of you. Blim Blam OUT. [he mic-drops the device and leaves, only to come back for the device] You know what?

66-> '''Unity:''' Do you know what I love about you, Rick? You're the only single mind I've met that really sees the big picture.\
67'''Rick:''' You got that right. But, baby, listen y-you're talking about taking over planets and galaxies. You got to got to just remember to let go sometimes, you know? \
68'''Unity:''' I can let go. Hey, look. You see that town across the river? Watch this. ''[Bombs the town]''\
69'''Rick:''' Whoa! Ha ha! Whoo! Whoa! That's not what I meant!\
70'''Unity:''' ''[laughing]'' It's okay. It's okay. I evacuated. I evacuated the town. Look.\

77->'''Unity:''' Rick, is there a way for you to call Summer and Morty? I feel bad that they--\
78'''Rick:''' Pbht. Screw those guys. Ugh. I'll be right back. Don't waste your brain on those weirdos, Unity. They're no different from any of the aimless chumps that you occupy. They just put you at the center of their lives because you're powerful. And then because they put you there, they want you to be less powerful. Never gonna happen though, right?\
79'''Unity as everyone in the room:''' Never.\
80'''Rick:''' Never. Back in a flash.
81----
82->''Rick, forgive me for doing this in notes. I'm not strong enough to do it in persons. I realize now that I'm attracted to you for the same reason I can't be with you. You can't change. And I have no problem with that, but it clearly means I have a problem with myself. I'm sure there's no perfect version of me. I'm sure I'll just unify species after species and never really be complete. But I know how it goes with us. I lose who I am and become part of you. Because in a strange way, you're better at what I do without even trying.\

89->'''Morty:''' Oh boy, what's wrong, Rick? Is it the quantum carburetor or something?\

113->'''Summer:''' Grandpa, I think that when you put your mind into this body's young brain, it did what young brains do—it shoved the bad thoughts into the back and put a large wall around them. But those bad thoughts are the real Rick. The fact that you're old, the fact that we're all going to die one day, the fact that the universe is so big, nothing in it matters—those facts are who you are! So you're trapped in there and you can only come out in the form of Tiny Rick's teen angst!\
114'''Tiny Rick''': Well, Summer, I hear Toby Matthews isn't into psycho chicks. Can't think of anyone that is. I'll see you motherfuckas at the dance! Tiny Rick!\
115'''Summer:''' Morty, you have to help me!\
116'''Morty:''' Summer, he's happy! I'm happy! I-I-Is that why you're doing this?! You don't want me and Rick to be happy?!\
117'''Summer:''' No!\
118'''Morty:''' Well, then get your shit together! Get it all together and put it in a backpack—all your shit, so it's together. ''[leaves, then comes back]'' And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere, you know? Take it to the shit store and sell it, o-or put it in a shit museum. I don't care what you do! You just gotta get it together! ''[leaves, then comes back again]'' Get your shit together. ''[leaves]''

120[[AC:Episode 10: The Wedding Squanchers]]
121->''Uh, hi everyone, I'm Ri[burp]ick. [Rick pulls out a notecard] You know, when I first met Birdperson, he was... uh... [[[ThrowingOutTheScript Crumples up notes and starts to ad-lib]], [[FreezeFrameBonus just as it was scripted on the note]]]. Listen, I'm not the nicest guy in the universe. Because I'm the ''smartest'', and being nice is something stupid people do to hedge their bets. Now, I haven't been exactly subtle about how little I trust marriage. ''I'' couldn't make it work, and I can turn a black hole into a sun, so, at a certain point, you have to ask yourself, "What are the odds that this is legit, and not some big lie we're telling ourselves because we're afraid to die alone?" Because, you know, that's exactly how we all die: alone. (Groaning from Rick's family.) But, but! Here's the thing: Birdperson is my best friend. And if he loves Tammy, then I love Tammy too. To friendship! To love! And to my greatest adventure yet: opening myself to others!''

132----
133-> '''Rick Prime:''' Imagine doing anything you want, then hopping to a timeline where you never did it. Imagine going anywhere, anytime, with nobody able to stop you.\
134'''Past Rick:''' Sounds lonely.\
135'''Rick Prime''': ''Lonely''? Dude, you have yourself -- your infinite selves. It's a nonstop party where all the guests are the only person we like. You think it's cool being the smartest man on Earth, but once we give you this technology, you become the smartest thing in every conceivable universe -- the Infinite Rick, a god.\
136'''Past Rick:''' Eh, pass.\
137'''Rick Prime:''' Excuse me? Bro, Ricks don't ''pass'' on this. Who do you think you are?\
138'''Past Rick:''' A different kind of Rick, I guess.
139----
140->'''Morty:''' I wanted you to have a normal life. That's something that you can't have when Rick shows up. Everything real turns fake, everything right is wrong, all you know is that you know nothing and he knows everything. And, well... well, he's not a villain, Summer, but he shouldn't be your hero. He's more like a demon or a super fucked up god.\
141'''Riq IV:''' Let's not suck the ghost of his dick ''too'' hard. He was a terrorist, and now he's dead.\
142'''Morty:''' Oh yeah, if you think my Rick's dead, he's alive, and if you think you're safe, he's coming for you!
143----
144->'''Rick:''' Not so fast, Morty. You heard your mom, we've got adventures to go on, Morty, just you and me. And sometimes your sister, and sometimes your mom, but ''never'' your dad. You wanna know why, Morty? Because he crossed me.\
145'''Morty:''' OK, take it easy Rick, th-th-that's dark.\
146'''Rick:''' Oh, it gets darker, Morty. Welcome to the darkest year of our adventures! First thing that's different: no more Dad, Morty. He threatened to turn me in to the government, so I made him and the government go away.\
147'''Morty:''' [[OhCrap Oh fuck]].\
148'''Rick:''' I've repla(''belches'')aaced them both as the de facto patriarch of your family, ''and'' your universe. Your mom wouldn't have accepted me if I came home without you and your sister, so now you know the ''real'' reason I rescued you. I just took over the family, Morty! And if you tell your mom or sister I said any of this, I'll deny it, and they'll take my side because I'm a hero, Morty! And now you're gonna have to go and do whatever I say, Morty! Forever! And I'll-and I'll-I'll-I'll go out and I'll find some more of that ''WesternAnimation/{{Mulan}}'' szechuan teriyaki [[BrickJoke dipping sauce]], Morty!

152[[AC:Episode 3: Pickle Rick]]
153->''"Rick, the only connection between your unquestionable intelligence and the sickness destroying your family is that everyone in your family - you included - use intelligence to justify sickness. You seem to alternate between viewing your own mind as an unstoppable force, and as an inescapable curse, and I think it’s because the only truly unapproachable concept for you is that it’s your mind - within your control. You chose to come here, you chose to talk - to belittle my vocation - just as you chose to become a pickle. You are the master of your universe, and yet, you are dripping with rat blood and feces, your enormous mind literally vegetating by your own hand. I have no doubt that you would be bored senseless by therapy, the same way I'm bored when I brush my teeth and wipe my ass. Because the thing about repairing, maintaining, and cleaning is: it’s not an adventure; there’s no way to do it so wrong you might die. It’s just work, and the bottom line is: some people are okay going to work, and some people - well, some people would rather die. Each of us gets to choose."''

159'''Alien Snake:''' Oof.\
160'''Rick:''' That all ended because she felt ''sorry'' for you! ([[RuleOfSymbolism Snatches an alien fly from the air and crushes it]]) You act like prey, but you're a predator! You use pity to lure in your victims! It's how you survive! I survive because I know everything, that snake survives because children wander off, and ''you'' survive because people think "Oh, this poor piece of shit! He never gets a break! I can't stand the deafening silent wails of his wilting soul! I guess I'll hire him, or marry him!"

165[[AC:Episode 7: The Ricklantis Mix-up]]
166->'''Host Rick:''' Candidate Morty: the number of displaced Mortys is soaring, while Rick satisfaction levels are plummeting, and the divide between the two groups has never been wider. [[ImpossibleTask Solve that one real quick.]]\
167'''Candidate Morty:''' I don't see a divide between Ricks and Mortys.\
168'''Retired General Rick:''' Ooh, shocker. ''[Fart]''\
169'''Reverse Rick Outrage:''' I'd like to offer a rebuttal: ''[Fart]''.\
170'''Rick Guilt Rick:''' Gentlemen, gentlemen. I think we can all agree on one thing: ''[Two Farts]''. Well, it came out as two things, but you get the idea.\
171'''Candidate Morty:''' You guys finished? The division I see is between the Ricks and Mortys that like the Citadel divided, and the rest of us. I see it everywhere I go. I see it in our schools, where they teach Mortys that we're all the same because they're threatened by what makes us unique. I see it in our streets, where they give guns to Mortys so that we're too busy fighting each other to fight ''real'' injustice. I see it in our factories, where Ricks work for a fraction of their boss's salary, even though they're identical and have the same IQ. The Citadel's problem isn't homeless Mortys or outraged Ricks. The Citadel's problem is the Ricks and Mortys feeding on the Citadel's death. But I've got a message for them, from the Ricks and Mortys keeping it alive. A message, from the Ricks and Mortys that believe in the Citadel, to the Ricks and Mortys that don't. You're outnumbered!

208'''Beth:''' Am I evil?\
209'''Rick:''' Worse. You're smart. ''[Pause]'' When you know nothing matters, the universe is yours. And I've never met a universe that was into it. The universe is basically an animal. It grazes on the ordinary. It creates infinite idiots just to eat them, not unlike your friend Timmy.\
210'''Beth:''' Tommy.\
211'''Rick:''' Yeah, it hardly matters now, sweetie. ''[Pause]'' You know, smart people get a chance to climb on top, take reality for a ride, but it'll never stop trying to throw you. And, eventually, it will. There's no other way off.

232-> '''Rick''': ''(carrying an assault rifle)'' This ends now.\
233'''Beth''': Dad, if you're my dad. Of course, you're not my dad. You're here with a gun because I am a clone. I guess I have all your daughter's memories. So I guess I was her, which makes me related to her. But I don't relate to her. She left her family and me, which means I relate to them. So if you kill me, fine. You're not killing her. [[ArmorPiercingResponse But you're killing a real family]]. And instead of doing that, [[ArmorPiercingQuestion will you just go away?]] [[ExpendableAlternateUniverse Aren't there, like, infinite time lines?]] [[ArmorPiercingQuestion Can't you just move to one where I don't know I'm a clone and where a different but identical version of your authentic sociopathic crazy bitch of a daughter can keep making you proud by being somewhere else?]]\
234'''Rick''': Beth, you crazy bitch. You're my daughter. ''(drops the assault rifle in defeat)'' I brought this here to kill Jerry.\
235'''Beth''': Oh, my God! ''(sighs in relief, as Morty and Summer come and hug her)''\
236'''Jerry''': Jesus Christ!\
237'''Rick''': Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You win, Jerry. You ''win''! [[AlwaysSomeoneBetter No amount of genius can stop your dumb mediocre vacuous roots]] from digging into everything and everyone around you and draining them of any ability to fend you off.\
238'''Jerry''': [[IllTakeThatAsACompliment Well, it couldn't have been easy for you to say that. I appreciate it]].\
239'''Rick''': Morty, where's my portal gun? Let's get out of here.\
240'''Morty''': [[IChooseToStay I'm staying here, Rick]].\
241'''Rick''': Are you...?! Ugh! Nobody gets it. [[StrawNihilist Nothing you think matters matters. This isn't special. This-this is happening infinite times across infinite realities]].\
242'''Summer''': Including this? ''(farts)''\
243'''Rick''': ''Yes!'' ...[[ActuallyPrettyFunny Which is not to say that, subjectively, it wasn't funny]].\
244'''Morty''': Are you going to stay?\
245'''Rick''': There's infinite time lines, Morty. Why would I stay in the one where I trashed the White House, became an enemy of America [[MadeMyselfSad and the lowest-status character in my idiot family]]?\
246'''Summer''': [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther Because of the fart]]?

They separated all the infinite universes from all the infinite universes where he's the smartest man in the universe. Every version of us has spent every version of all of our lives in one infinite crib, built around an infinite fucking baby. And I'm leaving it. That's what makes me "evil": being sick of him. If you've ever been sick of him, you've been evil too. \
293'''Morty:''' Rick... did you really leave the crows for me? Or did you come back because they dumped you? \

332'''Morty:''' Right, I'm-I'm supposed to go in there and be shocked that there's no hole or that there ''is'' a hole? What difference would it make?\
333'''The Hole Guy:''' Hm... You ''are'' hard to scare.\
334'''Morty:''' And Rick isn't, right? Th-the hole's gonna like, suck on him forever because his big secret is that he's got the most fear?\
335'''The Hole Guy:''' Well, we can certainly say you're not afraid to be ''reductive.'' I doubt your grandpa has more fear than the average asshole in the Denny's...\
336'''Denny's customer:''' Hey!\
337'''The Hole Guy:''' Sorry. If anything, he seems pretty brave. Surely not afraid to die. Maybe that makes his fear extra... ''Delicious.''\
338'''Morty:''' So what? He's scared of love?\
339'''The Hole Guy:''' Everyone's scared of love, dipshit. You learn that in your 20's. It takes a very brave, very ''powerful'' being to be terrified of happiness.\
340'''Morty:''' Dumb.\
341'''The Hole Guy:''' ''You're'' dumb. That's why you're not scared to be happy. The smarter you are, the more you know. Happiness is a trap, it can't last forever. Let's say you meet the love of your life. Well, it's still gonna end. It's inevitable, whether by the slow pull of a disease or a shock of loose footing in a hiking trail. Would it be the corrosion of two personalities that reshape each other until they're incompatible, or maybe the old stranger in a bar who says the things that need to be said to ''that'' person ''that'' night. The point is: '''happiness always ends.''' Best case scenario, think about this, best case, is that you ''die'' at the same time. Yikes.\
342'''Morty:''' Can't the Hole just let me go then? Sounds like I don't matter.\
343'''The Hole Guy:''' You don't. But if you go, you'll take him away. Don't worry, Rick will die before accepting happiness. After that, we'll chase you with some clowns or dumb shit like that. But ''grandpa!'' Yummy-yummy grandpa's gonna die... '''Just... Like... Diane.'''
