Rick and Morty Season 6 Episode 2 release date, time, plot, and cast for Adult Swim sci-fi show
The portals are down, Prime Rick is still on the loose, and Mr. Frundles unleashes a self-replicating nightmare
Keeping all the Ricks and Mortys of the infinite multiverse straight is something akin to nailing Jell-O to a tree. It takes a clear head, a strong stomach, and a handy NASA-lent slide rule.
Last week’s premiere episode, “Solaricks,” gave Rick and Morty a fresh start after confirming that Rick’s portal gun no longer works now that the Citadel is no more. But things take a turn for the worse when Rick accidentally resets all portal travelers instead of the portal index, which leads to a dizzying reboot of everyone launched back to their original universes.
This premise leads to a few shocking revelations. For one thing, the popular Rick and Morty “ticket theory” was apparently correct, as revealed when Jerry is zapped back to his original universe before he got mixed up with another version of himself at Jerryboree.
More important, however, is the fact that our Morty is actually the one from the same universe as the evil version of Rick (aka, Rick Prime) who murdered our Rick’s wife and daughter. The reason our Rick picked this Morty was in the hopes of setting a trap for Rick Prime, who seems to be the new main villain now that “Evil Morty” is out of the picture.

In other words, it was a very canon-heavy episode. If that’s what you’re into, you’re probably pretty satisfied. But if you prefer your Rick and Morty lighter and goofier, then you’re in luck. Season 6 Episode 2, “Rick: A Mort Well Lived,” trades lore for fun with a hilarious die-hard reference and a call-back to another classic joke that you can probably figure out based on the title alone.
