This was a great episode, not only for the frenetic twists and turns of the going-on of the Purge Planet, but for the way the episode explored both how Morty's scolding or concerned reactions to the craziness of what he and Rick see masks a repressed anger and frustration that lies beneath, and that however jaded Rick is after all he's been through, there's still a part of him that has limits and can only take so much. It's a neat trick to show that Rick has a bit of Morty in him, and Morty has more than a little Rick in him.

The Summer/Jerry subplot didn't have much to it in terms of point or story, but it was funny, so I'm happy to give it a pass.
