Watch New Rick And Morty Season 4 Episode 7
Did You Just See That?! Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 7 Breakdown!
Okay, Wubba Lubba Dub Dub, everyone! Let’s talk about the absolute bonkers ride that was Rick and Morty Season 4, Episode 7. This wasn’t just another episode; it was a meta-commentary wrapped in a self-aware burrito, sprinkled with existential dread.
Remember all those anthology episodes? Well, this one, "Promortyus," really went for it! We’re talking about a hive-mind scenario. A face-hugger-esque invasion, and a whole lot of death.
The Face-Hugger That Launched a Thousand Ships (Or Just One, Really Creepy Ship)
The premise is simple, yet terrifyingly effective: a parasite latches onto your face and convinces you that you're having the time of your life inside a simulation.
Must Read
The humor? Pure, unadulterated Rick and Morty. Imagine being stuck in a cheesy, hyper-optimized, never-ending graduation ceremony. It's horrifying and hilarious, all at once!
But what made this episode particularly special was the way it played with our expectations. Rick’s constant breaking of the fourth wall? He's usually in on the joke, but this time, even he was questioning reality.
Morty’s Moment of… Well, Maybe Not Glory, But Something
Let's be honest, Morty often gets the short end of the interdimensional stick. He’s the perpetually anxious foil to Rick’s nihilistic genius. It's a classic dynamic.
But in "Promortyus," Morty actually takes charge, even if it involves a lot of screaming and self-doubt. He manages to convince himself (and eventually Rick) that something’s horribly wrong.
It's a rare moment of agency for Morty. He's taking the initiative. He's not just following Rick; he's leading, albeit clumsily.
A Heartwarming… Sort Of?
Okay, "heartwarming" might be a strong word for an episode filled with parasitic brainwashing and mass suicide. Let's just say there were moments of… connection.
The Rick and Morty duo are at their best when they are forced to rely on each other. Even if it comes after spending what felt like years in the simulation. It reinforces their bond, however dysfunctional.
Think of it as a weird, toxic, but ultimately unbreakable friendship. It's the core of the show, even when the show is trying its hardest to be purely absurd.
The Big Takeaway: Don’t Trust Fish-Shaped Parasites
Seriously, if a fish-shaped parasite offers you the key to eternal happiness, politely decline. Trust your gut, or at least Morty's gut.
This episode was a reminder that Rick and Morty can be both laugh-out-loud funny and disturbingly thought-provoking.
It was a wild ride filled with action. It also had meta-humor, and a dash of existential dread. What more could you ask for?
"Nobody exists on purpose, nobody belongs anywhere, everybody's gonna die. Come watch TV?" – Morty Smith
So, rewatch "Promortyus," maybe with a friend, and prepare to question everything you thought you knew. And remember, don't get attached to any graduation ceremonies.
