I feel like that kind of ignores the point Rick said at the very end of the episode. There's no big plans to kill her because it doesn't matter. The others dying is bad luck for them, but oh well.

It depends if she comes back and tries her hand at revenge.

At that point she'd be actively provoking Rick.

Yeah, I mean her escaping was the point of that episode, it just depends if she is relevent to another one, which the spin off leaves me wondering.

Also concerning the whole morality thing, I think it's just a standard side effect whenever shows try to do an actual message or lesson in earnest despite all the characters conveying it being morally dubious at best or unlikeable hypocrites at worst.

Take the American Dad episodes that support gay rights and yet nearly always portray Greg and Terry as underhanded stereotypes in said episodes, or the infamous Santa Inc. It's very hard to get the gist of a Sadist Show if it plays itself as you being meant to support one side's point at the same time.

I think it's why most of the time, adult shows work better handling cynical satire instead (American Dad probably did the most fitting case, with an episode lampshading how an asshole can get away with murder purely because they act more outwardly likeable than their opponent).

Rick will change his mind of Nova decides to mess with him again.

That wouldn't be changing his mind, that would be her getting in his way again.

[up][up][up] That is why I found the sexism bit in the sperm episode comical.

Like their opinions normally don't get listened too anyway, and thats because Rick is an asshole.

Plus even then its not like either of them generally have good ideas, especially Summer whose about as bullheaded as Morty is.

In an interview with IGN, Justin Roiland claims the upcoming Season 6 will be a "return to form". This is among other topics like his favorite episodes, his relationship with Dan Harmon, and more:

Rick and Morty co-creator Justin Roiland doesn't have a lot of love for the animated comedy's fifth season. Speaking with IGN for an interview during San Diego Comic-Con, Roiland admitted to having mixed feelings about last year's season, though there were extenuating circumstances.

Season 5 was a weird one. We lost Mendel," Roiland says, referring to line producer J. Michael Mendel, who died unexpectedly in 2019.

But even if the season largely lived up to the standards set by earlier seasons, Roiland still has mixed feelings about it owing to the circumstances of the show's production.

"It was tough. We were thrown for a loop. That was... yeah. If I talk anymore, I'll start crying," Roiland says.

But for as much as it's grown, Roiland continues to prefer Rick and Morty's first and second seasons, which he owes to the "silliness and fun that was happening in the creative process.

Looking ahead to Rick and Morty's sixth season, though, Roiland seems more optimistic.

"I will say that it's a bit more canonical," he explains, though he says there will be also be good "point of entry" episode as well. "It really rewards fans of the show that have been watching up to this point...So it's like, I think we're kind of finally back into the rhythm of Rick and Morty, and I think Season 6 is... I didn't particularly think Season 5 was bad, but Season 6 is f*cking amazing. It really is a f*cking quality season."

It dawns on me that, yeah, Planetina and Nova teaming up would A) resolve this "Rick and Morty stranded in space" plot that seems to be set up here, and B) be a funny parody of Captain Marvel saving Tony Stark in Endgame.

And both women would have reasonable beef with Rick and Morty. Nova with Rick because he killed her entire team. Planetina because Morty refused to commit.

I guess the idea is that they were growing...something in the heart of the Citadel. Or maybe keeping something locked up.

And Evil Morty destroying the Citadel has released it.

Not to be a pessimist but expect it to be ignored for half a season, or dealt with in the first episode and treated like a Take That!.

The trailer dialog seems to be building upon the reveal of Rick's past with the Rick killing his Beth and wife, but I have a feeling that it will be referenced by a throw-away line taking a jab at the fans in the first episode and then ignored for most of the season.

They should submit this season for Outstanding Comedy Series at the Emmys next year. Only two have managed and I don't see why this can't.
