Rick And Morty Season 4 Episode 1 Full Ep
Alright, strap yourselves in for a wild ride back to Rick and Morty! Remember that agonizing wait for Season 4? Well, the premiere, "Edge of Tomorty: Rick Die Repeat," definitely delivered on the weirdness we all craved.
It all starts with Rick dragging a reluctant Morty to a planet for some seriously good fortune cookies. But these aren't your average takeout treats; these babies show you how you're going to die. Spooky, right?
Morty's Obsession and a Whole Lotta Trouble
Morty, being a teenager, immediately gets hooked on the cookie that promises him a death involving Jessica. Cue an escalating series of ridiculous decisions to ensure that future comes to pass.
Must Read
This leads to Morty becoming obsessed with following the cookie's instructions, regardless of how insane they are. It's a classic Morty move, driven by hormones and a desire for love (or, well, something with Jessica).
What follows is a hilarious, increasingly grotesque, and utterly bonkers chain of events. Each time Morty dies (and he dies a lot), he gets resurrected in a slightly different, increasingly messed-up reality.
The Fascist Morty and the Wasp Morty
We're talking Fascist Morty, Shrimp Morty, and even a Wasp Morty! Seriously, the writers went all-out with the alternate reality Mortys, each more absurd than the last.
The Fascist Morty is particularly disturbing, especially the way the show satirizes the idea of nationalism taken to extreme. It’s dark humor, but it’s definitely making a statement.
And Wasp Morty? Well, that's just pure, unadulterated Rick and Morty insanity. Who even thinks of that stuff?
Rick's Hilarious Desperation
Meanwhile, Rick is trying to prevent Morty from destroying the entire multiverse with his cookie-fueled obsession. Watching Rick panic and scramble to fix things is always comedy gold.
He dies, too, quite a few times, which, as the title suggests, leads to even more alternate realities converging and becoming a mess. The Die Hard reference is pretty great, by the way.
It highlights the futility of control and the chaos that Rick tries so hard (and often fails) to manage. His sarcastic commentary throughout the episode is on point as always.
The Heart of the Matter (Sort Of)
Despite all the interdimensional travel, grotesque mutations, and sheer absurdity, there's a tiny, almost imperceptible thread of something… touching? Okay, maybe not touching, but something.
Morty's desperate pursuit of Jessica, however misguided, reveals his longing for connection and a sense of purpose. Even if that purpose is dictated by a fortune cookie predicting his demise.
Ultimately, “Edge of Tomorty: Rick Die Repeat” is a reminder of what makes Rick and Morty so special. It's funny, bizarre, and occasionally makes you think (even if you don't want to).
It also showcases the dynamic between Rick and Morty: a toxic, yet strangely enduring relationship built on co-dependency and a shared love of interdimensional adventure.
The episode ends on a characteristically ambiguous note, leaving us to ponder the true cost of Morty's obsession and the fragility of reality itself. Or, you know, we can just laugh at Wasp Morty. Your call.
So, did this episode live up to the hype? Absolutely. It's a chaotic, hilarious, and surprisingly thought-provoking return to the multiverse, packed with everything we love (and sometimes fear) about Rick and Morty.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go find a fortune cookie. Hopefully, mine doesn't involve becoming a shrimp.
