This episode only gets a 9/10 simply because I know the show's hit even higher points, but this is a great episode. Both stories worked well, with the Jerry-Morty story having enough parody value to be funny and a surprising little bit of heart to it as well. The same goes for the Rick-Summer story, where Rick trying to one-up The Devil was unexpectedly good comedic fodder, and Summer's bit about there not being any non-evil companies that employ teenagers was a funny one as well. There were great little bits, like the butter robot and Morty's exchange with his dad about bursting into the room, but overall it was just a well-constructed episode.
Definitely one of the funniest end/post-credit skits. This episode is just really funny and creative but I think the Morty Jerry plot was kinda boring. Rick being so happy about the Devil trying to kill himself is a high point :joy:
Another pretty meh episode. I really love the conflict between Rick and The Devil, but the Jerry and Morty stuff is super lame and forgettable. The Rick plotline also peaks near the middle of the episode, with the second half feeling kind of weak and anticlimactic compared to the beginning. The whole thing with Rick and Summer getting jacked was also just a really stupid out of nowhere solution, which I would excuse if it was funny, but it unfortunately wasn't.
Jerry: "Well. I mean, traditionally, science fairs are a father/son thing."
Rick: "Well, scientifically, traditions are an idiot thing."
The Devil: "Free of charge. One never pays here. Not with money."
Jerry: "I don't care what anyone says. If it can be a planet, it can be a planet again."
Rick: "You work for the Devil!"
Summer: "So what?"
Rick & The Devil: "So what?"
Summer: "Yes, so what if he's the Devil, Rick? At least the Devil has a job. At least he's active in the community. What do you do? You eat our food and make gadgets. Buh-bye."
King Flippy Nips: "I'm King Flippy Nips."
Scroopy Noopers: "Mines like these suck Plutonium up to the cities, where corporations use it to power everything, from diamond cars to golden showers and the more we remove, the more Pluto shrinks."
[Rumbling.]
Scroopy Noopers: "There it goes again. Just shrank a little. But a few years ago, your scientists noticed Pluto had gotten so small... they couldn't even call it a planet anymore. It should've been our wake up call. But the rich Plutonians won't wake up. And they love your dad telling everyone Pluto's a planet, because that means they can keep mining, until Pluto goes from planet to asteroid to meteor and finally... poof."
Rick: "Hey!"
[Clears throat.]
Rick: "Hey, w-w-w-what's going on?"
Summer: "You're Zuckerberging me?"
7/10
Not as funny as the rest, but it still has its moment for sure!
I like the end of history
