The portal when completed will open a gateway to infinite new worlds…
I’m so completely FLOORED BY THIS THOUGH.
That episode of Rick and Morty aired last APRIL. For some reason, in this one scene, they had one of the portals spit out a coffee mug, notebook, and pen. It’s on screen for maybe half a second, and NO ONE addresses it.
It’s Stan’s freaking coffee mug!
They spanned two tv shows, two networks, and a solid six months just for this joke. This is beyond incredible. This is STUNNING.
Icing on the cake—the dude who made Rick and Morty is the voice of Blendin Blandin. You know, the time traveler who appeared in a bunch of EARLY gravity falls episodes, before he was introduced, to clean up the mess he made in episode nine?
ABSOLUTELY. INCREDIBLE.
Why would he drive a toaster if he lives in a toaster? Who drives in a smaller version of their house? You know?
why would he live and drive inside something that cooks him alive
why does he have a toaster house while his neighbors both have regular building houses?
why is a pastry sentient?
We do not question why somethings alive, just how it chooses to live.
Rick and Morty started off with a classic episode about a boy (Morty) who was into a girl that was way out of his league, so he wanted some sort of potion to make her fall in love with him
obviously, like in most episodes similar to this one, it doesn’t work out, but instead of making Morty totally blame-free, Rick totally calls him out on the creepiness of his actions.
Rick and Morty might be totally hilarious, but they get pretty deep sometimes. This was just one of the many moments on this show where they missed a chance to make a shitty gag joke about something offensive to bring up a deeper meaning instead, the meaning in this case being:
“just because you call it something innocent, like a love potion, doesn’t make it any less creepy that you’re forcing something on another human being to make them love you against their will”
tl;dr: fuck yeah Rick and Morty
