I wonder if they will ever get Rick’s spaceship back considering it was left during the raid when they all had to escape in the worm truck.The cliffhanger is definitely going to leave my head spinning for the following year…we know that Rick has to get out somehow.
This season delivered on just about everything: story, humor, guest stars, pop culture references, and, most of all, character development. Although it’s disappointing to know we probably won’t see Season 3 for another year and a half, I would rather see quality over quantity for a show like this. Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland really seem to take their time with organizing everything to deliver fun episodes that offer a great story as well. Rick and Morty has been an extremely consistent show throughout its first two seasons. It’s a pretty tough idea to juggle with and really shows the depth these characters possess. Even Morty is mature enough to at least give Rick one last ultimatum, realizing that if his grandfather stays, it will keep their family closer but leaving will allow things to be normal and non-threatening. His goodbye with Morty is pretty sad, but it shows how tired everyone is from the events that occurred.
Rick, the smartest man in the universe, finally realizes how selfish he can be as a person and that the only way his family will truly be normal and happy is with him out of the picture. This episode of Rick and Morty gets really heavy but also does a terrific job at revealing some honest emotions from every character. It’s pretty sad to see Rick hear through the floor, but for once, Jerry is in the position to call out the situation for what it is. His character is the only selfish one in the episode truly able to call out Rick for the negative things he has done. Jerry is an interesting character, because he is pretty much disliked by his entire family, especially Rick. Jerry is the odd man out who wants to turn Rick in and head back to their normal lifestyle. It’s a tough time, but they are sticking it out because they won’t give up on each other. The family can’t go home anymore and is miserably isolated on a tiny planet. Rick then goes into protector mode and immediately assumes the worst of everything. After watching his best friend die, Rick sort of loses focus until Squanchy can tell him one last thing: “Get your family out of here.” He assumes that things won’t last, which he’s unfortunately right about when Tammy turns out to be an undercover agent for the Galactic Federation. Throughout the episode, he refuses to be happy for Bird Person, who marries Summer’s friend from high school, Tammy. “The Wedding Squanchers” had Rick acting pretty emotional the entire way through. He has protected Summer and Morty a lot this season and even went as far as saving Beth and Jerry’s marriage his family matters to him. Although adventures with him are never normal, Rick has a grasp for when things have gone too far. Rick is a jerk he admits it multiple times because he knows that he’s smarter than everyone. Rick and Morty is fun because the characters pretty much ignore each other’s flaws, and there are never consequences to come from it. Last night’s Season 2 finale, “The Wedding Squanchers,” reminded viewers that the show can get both dark and deep really quick when these personality traits begin to be addressed. While Rick has definitely been the character to grow the least, I think that the second season really proved how much he actually loves and cares for his grandchildren and family.
The show has made sure that both Morty and Summer benefit from traveling around with Rick, and in weird ways, they learn life’s most important lessons because it’s the only thing he can give them. Well, it’s been quite the season for Rick and Morty, and what a way to finish things off! Over the course of the season, we’ve seen more of the same, but also immense amounts of character growth from everyone.
