not the biggest fan of ‘mortyplicity’ but i think it’s really sad that all of the decoy ricks wanted to protect their families, but they all failed.
there are so many soft/emotional details in that episode, too, which adds to the tragedy of it all.

Okay, I fucking loved "Mortyplicity", but this moment fucks with me in a way I can't articulate the proper words for.
Yes, this Morty is but a cybernetic clone-decoy, and that Rick isn't the real Rick, but holy shit, dude. They were still made in their images. One of those "Fridge Horror" moments, amirite? Somewhere, a part of Rick is willing to murk Morty. But, I wonder if it's kinda skewed?
I mean, in the episode, one of the decoy Ricks literally asks his Morty: "Morty, this is gonna sound bad, but would you trust me not to kill you?" Naturally, Decoy Summer and Decoy Morty react accordingly, with "Oof" and "I mean, good point, but jesus christ." And yeah, I think he only really said that as a roundabout way to prove that another Decoy Rick would not hesistate to off him during a gunfight or what have you. But yeah, holy shit.
And I know we've seen numerous Morties gruesomely killed, but those were dimensional counterparts. These are flesh fascimiles of our Morty. They just look so broken… it just unnerves me for some reason.

some old art of the Smiths (+ Rick) as pets because nintendogs + cats had a profound impact on me as a person

Spoilery thoughts under the cut
With the reveal that there are multiple Rick Primes, I’m curious to know how long this has been the case? I’m assuming it was something he did after he was reset to his original reality in Solaricks since otherwise we’d have multiple Primes returning there right? Then again, maybe that’s how we had one Prime fully clothed on the screens following Rick with his eyes while he was also in the tube? It also kind of makes sense as something for him to do in response to Rick getting so close to him, since we know Rick never got even remotely close before, so maybe Prime realised he needed to step up his game.
It works well for Prime in terms of both protection and his apparent love for trolling/taunting Rick - either Rick finds out there’s multiple versions of Prime before encountering one and struggles with knowing there are so many he has to kill (as we saw in the episode) or Rick kills Prime just for him to seemingly return from the dead? I wouldn’t even be surprised if Prime intentionally let Rick capture/kill him just so that he could taunt Rick by reappearing. It would have an even greater impact if it’s only the true Prime who has his invincibility powers, as Rick might manage to kill many Primes, only to be completely caught off guard when he finally gets the real one and he can’t kill him.
It could also be interesting if, depending on how much Prime knows about Rick, Prime deliberately let a lot of his clones (I’m assuming they’re clones?) get murdered by Rick in plain view of other Ricks in order to convince the Citadel to turn against him once again as it would show him committing ‘Rickicide’ again.
Also I’m interested in how this works logistically, are they decoys as in Mortyplicity who don’t know they’re decoys? Do they know they’re decoys and not care? Is Prime’s consciousness somehow split between them all at once? Are they even multiple versions of Prime or has Prime somehow figured out a way to fuck with whatever it is that lets Rick identify him and cause it to flag up other Ricks (or even just random people) as Prime?
Idk obviously there’s a lot going on in this episode but Prime is such an intriguing character to me that I wanted to make this post

How Prime Exists in Multiple Places at Once - Theories
Tumblr media
How Prime is able to exists in multiple places at the same time?
[This post is copy/pasted/remixed from multiple reblog posts I wrote for the Rick C-137 & Prime Masterpost on Rick and Morty. I'm putting my thoughts in its own post for organisational purposes.]
The Central Finite Curve:
In the season 3 backstory, Prime says: "Once we give you this technology, you become the smartest thing in every conceivable universe. The Infinite Rick."
So, not just within the Central Finite Curve?
Tumblr media
In the first episode of season 6, C-137 tries to fly through the tear in the universe that Evil Morty created. This tear goes beyond the Central Finite Curve. C-137 does this to try and find Prime.
Tumblr media
Evil Morty escapes the Finite Curve to get away from Ricks, because the Finite Curve is the multiverse where Rick became the smartest person in that dimension, cutting off access to other dimensions where he isn't.
MantiH on the subreddit made a visual diagram to help illustrate the Central Finite Curve's relationship with the rest of the Multiverse. (Source: Reddit)
Tumblr media
So for example, Simple Rick's dimension is "16 iterations" off from the Finite Curve (red zone), while Doofus Rick is (we assume) is from inside the Finite Curve (green zone).
So Prime could have somehow found a way to access a part of the multiverse (red) that has other Primes (Rick Prime specifically--no labcoat-style Ricks) that the other Ricks of the Finite Curve either didn't know about or knew about and purposefully wanted to cut ties with? Then these alternate Primes got together all simultaneously infiltrated the Central Finite Curve to outsmart C-137 in a "he can't take down all of us" mentality.
Cloning:
During Prime's introductory scene in his lair, he brings up the idea of cloning.
Tumblr media
Prime: "I shoot the first monitor too. Listen, I'm not here... Or am I? There's the clone you found. Or maybe it's me all naked. Just a little Keyser Söze."
It turns out that Prime is bluffing and that the figure in the escape pod isn't a clone, and is in fact the same Prime that kills Jerry.
But what if he really is a clone, and in fact is one of many Prime clones? That would explain how he can be detected in multiple places at once.
In season 5, there's an entire episode (Mortyplicity) devoted to the idea of C-137 creating "decoys" to avoid getting killed by his enemies. So what if Prime had the same idea?
Tumblr media
Prime Lied About it Being a Recorded Message
This addition was previously made by @jordenn420 in another post.
Prime says: "Obviously, I don't know who I'm talking to here. It's all pre-recorded."
He was lying.
It wasn't pre-recorded.
Prime's eyes follow C-137 as he runs around the lair. This wouldn't be possible if the monitors were just recordings. It was a live broadcast.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Plus, Prime is already an established liar:
Prime: "Look, there he goes. Maybe that actually was me. And if you follow him down there, we can do a big fight. 50 percent chance I'm not lying."
We know the Prime in the glass escape pod was the same one who killed Jerry.
But not just that, observe the eyelines here:
Tumblr media
At first, I thought it was cheated perspective (pretty common in animation--it's just more visually-pleasing to use incorrect perspective sometimes) to cheat eyelines (so that all the Primes are looking at C-137). But the perspective of Prime's face is changed so much in the screen-left monitors that his nose has flipped to the other side. It's not just the eyes.
We can eliminate the possibility that Prime is using multiple cameras placed at different angles, since that wouldn't explain how his pupils can be in different positions.
It's not multiple monitors of the same clone. Each monitor is a different clone.

my greatest fear is that they're gonna pull another season 3 premiere on us, dangling the idea that everything is different now and then going back on it near-immediately with maybe one(1) change that lasts a substantial amount of tine
Yeah, I'm a little worried about that, too. That's actually one of the few issues I had with season 3--the world-changing events of the season 2 finale were reversed, and Earth went back to normal like nothing happened.
Seasons 4 and 5 also had huge fakeouts with the trailers. The season 4 trailer presented scenes from the Story Train episode like they were real, while half the season 5 trailer was scenes from Mortyplicity.
I don't think the show's going to have a total fakeout after the huge reveals of season 5, buuuut...I'm not expecting all this random imagery we're seeing to mean anything, lol. The egg and worms and "ripped and ready" could just be random bullshit.
