It's worth a 10 for that ending alone. My god, I am speechless. No words for that amount of sheer emotion and pain.
The main story with Rick, Morty, and Summer was great. The show showed off its sci-fi creativity chops with Rick dating Unity (hooray for Christina Hendricks and Patton Oswalt as a borg-esque collective), and Summer's do-gooder issues with trying to fix things were a great comedic twist. I loved the line "First race war, huh?" and all the Unity-related gags were great and inventive for both Rick and his grandkids. The Jerry/Beth storyline didn't work as well for me, though it did deepen Beth's character a bit, which was nice. Lots of laughs all around. Then, things get serious.
Rick's suicide attempt with the background music was, as this show occasionally is, heartbreaking. It's always powerful when shows like this show the well of emotion behind all the absurd humor. Quality episode for sure. Probably an 8.5/10 (the Beth-Jerry stuff dragged it down a bit).
Damn, it got real dark at the end...
That reference to Community made me cry.
this was actually really sad :disappointed:
possibly one of the best endings in the whole show
OH MY GODDESS, THIS IS THE BEST EPISODE EVEEEEER
