Season 5 of Rick and Morty has been... a mixed bag. One thing they HAVE delivered on, though, is the promise of some epic lore. You see, the Rick we've been seeing is very different to our usual Rick. I've made a couple theories already about why that may be, but the most recent episode left a BIG clue. Has Beth been dead the ENTIRE time? Watch to find out!

This theory explains both why Rick hates himself, other versions of himself, and the origins of simple Rick
@Oreo Chaos Come home to simple Rick...
It does..
I think he would like sympanthize with simple rick ngl
What about fly fishing Rick. Does he hate him?
He IS Simple Rick, or rather could have been. It’s cruel-Ricks sell the fantasy of a life with Beth and Diane, but the second a Rick chooses that life, they’re killed.
It also adds a bit of an interesting wrinkle to Rick's "there's infinite universes, nothing matters" attitude. While the Ricks that abandon their families just genuinely believe this, our Rick may be constantly telling himself this to to convince himself because he knows he got his original Beth killed.

Are you a Morty, because you said "to" twice 😆
Yeah. Even though it's not really his fault, either. I mean, he made a choice that led to their death, but he wasn't the one who directly killed them. Sadly he's forced to blame himself for actually wanting to be selfless for the sake of his family. Yet you can tell that he does love his family deep down even though they aren't from his dimension. Ouch!😔😰

The thing about this that makes it even more punch to to the gut, is that if Rick decided to abandon his family, he then came back and got to experience being a grandfather and takin his kids on all these adventures and basically abandoning them was all forgiven...so the Rick that chose not to abandon his family had them killed but had to see the life he could have had. No wonder he hates all other Ricks. They chose to abandon their families but still got to be apart of their lives
I've always chosen to believe the "completely fabricated origin story" was true, and as a result found it genuinely heartbreaking that Rick is constantly dumped on for abandoning his family even though he didn't.
He could easily tell Beth that he isn't the Rick that left her. At this point she knows about the nature of Ricks existing across multiple dimensions and all that wacky science nonsense. But instead he accepts the blame for something another Rick did, almost as if he thinks he deserves it. Like he _wants_ to be punished, either because he hates that any version of himself was capable of doing that or because of his guilt at unintentionally getting his family killed.
That's rough, buddy.
this is why everyoen should watch COMMUNITY...tv show by Dan Harmon, it could be important!
No spoilers. Season 3 ends in a major turning point.
If you pay attention to what Rick says it doesn’t matter who’s Rick did what. They’re all the same person doing the same things at the same time but from different universes. Half the Ricks abandoned the family and the other half killed the family. In both ways Rick abandoned his family even if Rick didn’t do it directly to his own universe family. They all bare the same consequences of their actions.
If you pay attention to the time travel stuff in the garage you have to imagine the same thing happened to Rick that happened to the Snake Planet. Nothing he did worked because as soon as he got an idea all of the other Ricks got the same idea. That’s why he’s depressed, that’s why nothing matters; he’s stuck in his own prison.

I've been waiting for this episode. This also makes the episode with toxic Rick make more sense too. C-137 Rick would think that what is toxic of himself is his love, because that is what killed his wife and Beth. Can't wait until the season finale! So much lore!

@@pipisxipies here’s a song for you who spams links czcams.com/video/JwncAQurlqk/video.html
You need to analyze that footage of baby Morty now that this has come to light
@@supersaxyguy This could also just mean that he could have integrated in to a Beths life sooner than that, many times infact maybe. Maybe he's gotten too many Beth, Morty, and Summers killed over the years because of his love for them, which is why he subconsciously pushes them away.
Really good point!
I’d like to see a new episode talking about the future for season 6, while touching on the events in the season finale.
Yeah I'm thinking the exact same thing, I was waiting for matpat to do that after watching the season finale
After watching s6 e1 and rewatching this I love how right mat is, and how he doesn't know (or how oh so right he is) about our Rick's original Beth and Diane are dead and how he is without a doubt the rickiest Rick.
Yeah, the latest episode is confirmation of this theory further supported by the fact that he created a simulation to torture himself over their losses. It was also revealed that Prime Rick was responsible for the death of his family; the Rick we follow throughout the show lost his family in a similar manner compared to the theory.
I just don't understand why this is a theory and why everyone is so surprised that st6 ep 1 confirms it. In the finale of this season (St5 Ep10) you can see the downloaded memories of Rick, so huh?
@@finn1196The season finale came out after this video.
This would mean Evil Morty isn’t Rick’s “original” Morty either because if his Beth died there would be no Morty.
Oh my god your right....but then why does evil morty have a murder boner for current rick
@@TICTAC1 I think its because this rick is the rickiest rick and evil morty is the rickiest morty.
@@zmandemon3 you mean the mortiest Morty.
@@zmandemon3 or maybe evil morty is what happens when our morty finds out the truth about rick...the show avoids any of the main characters time traveling like the plague maybe its because our current morty is evil morty from the future
@@SSgamer69 That wouldnt make much sense as Morty's tend to be wimpy.
When Rick tells morty “choose science not love” it hits harder now cause Rick knows if only he would have picked science his wife and Beth would still be alive

@@btsxdreamxspongebobfanfict1796 ok
@ᴛᴀᴘ ᴍᴇ ᴀɴᴅ sᴇᴇ Sofia it’s easy to predict the future when all you do is predicting the future lol
This theory was confirmed last Sunday during S6 E1 of Rick & Morty.Excellent job, sir!
Hasn't it already been "confirmed" in this season(5)?! In the season finale, you can see Rick's memories of it.
Im shocked ro learn that people genuinely thought the line "You live with a version of our dead daughter." Meant clones and not a beth from a different dimension.
Fr I figured it meant a version where she got to grow up lol
Would the the fact that Rick loved his original family having killed them also explain why Rick views his empathy as toxic in Rest and Ricklaxation?
That would make a lot of sense!
To add onto this, it’s also interesting how the Rickest Rick chose to stay with his family in the beginning
youre a genius
also his "irrational attachment " to morty, the grandson that never even existed in his own timeline
The agent says this was you and her between 9/11 and favourite sports blooper, shows the portal and his family standing next to the portal. Thus his family death came from a portal failure
This also does semi-explain that one rant Rick gave to Morty during Rick Potion where he goes "Break the cycle, Morty. Rise above. Focus on Science." as a bit of a projection of his own guilt. As well as fueling his toxic complex of pushing those he loves away as a way to protect them from the knowledge and danger he poses.
czcams.com/video/j3b4FJWFSAA/video.html
That's a good idea
11:16 This explains that why rick cried when robotic rick shows him picking up morty when morty was a baby
If beth in his dimension hadn't died he could've have a grandson (and granddaughter)
When I saw beth serving lemonade to all those federation Ricks it really solidified I realize she wouldn't care even if that wasn't her original Rick who abandoned her. It all comes together
Interestingly enough, this means that Evil Morty can't be Rick's original Morty---at least, not in the sense that he's Rick's actual grandson. I suppose that he could have been Rick's first assigned Morty though.
So from everything we know we can deduce that evil morty is the baby morty we see in ricks memories. We know rick was already involved in another smith family's lives due to him having past memories of morty being a baby. Rick did not return to the current smith family until morty was his current age. This means rick must have done something that kills the entire previous smith family. Except morty who he either abandons or believes died. If morty didnt die, then ricks tells morty he doesnt care about him, he cares about beth and finds a new one. "If we know one thing is true, it is that ricks don't care about morty's." If he thought morty died he still goes to find a new family, but I think it is the former. Rick currently cannot survive without beth. Morty is just bringing revenge for killing his family.
Yeah we have to remember that flashback from way back of him holding a baby morty. The TV show morty is def his second Morty for sure
Yeah definitely, as in the first Morty he adventured with.
Bro i wish i could be smart all i can do is agree with theorys that i never would have come up with myself
Rick cant have an assigned morty, he was never part of the citadel or the councel and those are the ricks assigning mortys to ricks
After the S5 finale, this makes a lot of sense, the whole “either you’re a Rick that chose science or a Rick that chose family.” C-137 Rick is the Rickest Rick because he chose both science and family, if you want to look at it that way.
I’d like to think that all the Ricks in the current multiverse are the ones that chose science, hence why C-137 is distinctly different (because he initially chose family). I guess that’s also why so far, we haven’t been in any universe where Beth (or the rest of the family) doesn’t exist because she’s already dead
Evil Morty is probably now in the other half of the multiverses where Rick chose family, therefore no science or power and ultimately no Mortys. No Mortys = no suffering, which is what Evil Morty wanted?
...or you can take it a step further, Evil Morty is now in Dimension C-137 itself
@@sigma_azn Rick didn't invent the central finite curve to isolate the universes where he's the most intelligent, he did it to protect the isolated universes from Ricks that chose family.
@@matthewvandeventer3632 I think he did it so that he could trap the Rick that killed Beth and Diane from escaping to one of infinite universes
Eh still did not really age well
@@matthewvandeventer3632 I doubt that because in rick back story it shows other ricks before him going though other universes so my head cannon is way before our rick was "born" there were other ricks before him had a plan to make the multiple universes and spit then into two where every rick is in one side and the rest is on the other side and so my question is where are the ricks who spit the multiple universes up? That's the big question.
Coming from the future: Morty found out Rick isn't his Rick and took it well.
Rick and Morty 100 years.
Even rick doesn't know whether Beth went to space or actually stayed at home, so it's hard to say that Space Beth was the clone. We can theorize that Space Beth was the clone, but that would only be a theory.
One thing to note is that the “dead beat” Ricks, who probably made up the majority of the Citadel of Rick, held hostage a “Simple Rick” and used him to flavor candy bars with memories of giving up science to live with his family. This gives credence to the concept that many Ricks have little respect for a Rick that does not choose the path of science godhood, but also that there is a non-zero chance that Rick could choose his family over science if left alone.
But there would have to be an original rick that chooses science over his family to start the cascade of citadel ricks in the first place
I wouldn’t go as far as to say a non-zero. It’s definitely more of a 50/50 if not 30/70 chance that rick would choose his family over science
@@kendallspeaks6869 I mean it depends on the Rick. As c137 said “I guess I’m just a different kind of rick”. When your infinite selves are around I think they slowly stop becoming your other selves and moreso seem like other people because their choices can be so different resulting in them being so different. It would feel like talking to a twin sibling rather than an alternate self. I feel c137 Rick doesn’t have the same personality as a citadel Rick for example. So c137 is simply a Rick who just felt more love for his family for one reason or another. Not all ricks have that and that’s why some abandon the family to explore the infinite world of science full time
I think he was a Rick that managed to save his family but still ended up kidnapped
I just want to add that Memory Rick's statement doesnt HAVE to imply that Dead Beths and Abandoned Beths are the only Beths, just that they're the only ones that a Rick can RELIABLY move in with. There can be infinite Beths that grew into adulthood having a perfectly happy relationship with Rick. And in some of those dimensions, the Ricks could have died. But there lies the tricky part. Any Beth with a dead Rick that actually raised her would be resistive to an alternate Rick trying to take his place. Can't try tricking them, because they knew Rick and likely traveled with him so they'll be able to suss out an imposter and would likely assume the worst intentions of them. For all we know, happy Beths that grew up with their Ricks can be just as common, but the other Ricks just don't consider them because they legitimately can't. The odds of finding a happy Beth with a dead Rick that's willing to take in any random alternate Rick is just too low.
czcams.com/video/Cmp1R7frXWw/video.html
Exactly what I was thinking
Good theory
Good point
SUS OUT AN IMPOSTER my mansss
I guess with Rick being the odd one going back to live with adult beth would also explain why although there seems to be alot of Rick and Morty pairs in the citadel, there isn't an "unlimited" amount like there would be if it were common to happen in every single dimension
This also explains why he's the only one who seems to actually care about his Morty and doesn't treat him as expendable like others do

A masterpiece

@@vince1987 mannn😂
I was genuinely very surprised they basically showed us his life in chronological order. I expected that they would never fully tell the truth. But I'm still very, very skeptical. They could pull a season 3. When Rick said it's a fully "brain download" of himself, that doesn't mean it's actually real. It could be a pre-prepareed fake story as a final contingency plan to show Morty if ever needed. If anything, that makes even more sense. Why would Rick just carry around a real full brain download, instead of a fake on?
I know omg my mind was blown I hope that make more 😌
I think it's really nice that Rick decided to fill the role of another Rick in another dimension, but you gotta admit that the whole Rick and Morty timeline is pretty trippy fo sure.

I feel like most people overlook the fact that young Rick is a compiled memory of Rick by Birdperson (as evident with the portal gun) so it could be easily said that our Rick told Birdperson that Diane story and that's why young memory Rick explains it as so and Rick knows that as well and chooses to ignore it cause he's told that story over and over again.

7:50 the portal is blue, but it's green "in the future" and the last episode so far has a golden portal
This literally changes the entire show. Now I want to rewatch it all from this perspective. Definitely brings new meaning to the scenes where rick does something for his family out of love, like when he kills King Jellybean in Meeseeks and Destroy
and not only that it explains why he is always so guarded when it comes to loving your family
It scarred him for life especially when he found out that each and every rick had to go through what he did and that the citadel ricks probly killed off the ricks that had the privilege to choose both science and love. It also explains why he has an intense hatred for the members of the board of the citadel.
This new episode was insane. It also confirmed a lot of the thoughts that I had on how the multiverse works
If there are a truly infinite amount of multiverses, that means that there infinite variations of “the smartest man in the universe”. And this also applies to people outside of the smith family. In some other multiverses with a separate finite curve, the Smith’s family neighbor (Jean) is the smartest man in the universe. In another multiverse, JESSICA is the smartest being in the universe. There are even universes and multiverses where everyone is dumb, and multiverses and universes where everyone is smart, along with multiverses and universes where no one AT ALL was smart enough to invent portal technology.
@@johnbob5137 but it was C-137 who build citadel after being pleased by other Ricks. At least that's how I understood last episode.
@@swerzye4472 evil morty might have originated from one of those universes.
It is noteworthy that, when Rick goes on a rant with Morty about love, he says: "what people calls 'love' is just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed ... Break the cycle, Morty. Rise above. Focus on science". As if "love" and "science" where mutually exclusive. When he could not focus on love (his wife and daughter), he dedicated his life to science.

That idea is Bullcrap too? It ignores how you can feel love for people without actually being attracted to them.
I love watching these late cuz omg hes so spot on with the new episode its scary
In the episode where Evil Morty was revealed, there's still that loose end where he reached out to Morty while he was still a toddler in a scanned memory. How does this fit into our Rick's timeline? Was this not his first time staying with a different universe's family and trying to bond with them? Whatever happened to that family that he was with back then? It's definitely implied through the season 5 finale backstory that our Morty's Beth has never seen Rick since she was a child, so that couldn't be our Morty either. So my theory is that Rick, in his loneliness, actually tried to be with another abandoned Beth family before, but somehow it didn't last (maybe they all died off, is all I can think of), because this time he came into our Morty's family with a purpose... so he might have tried to actually bond with the Smith family before out of pure intentios, but something happened that made him separate from that other family to pursue his nemesis through Morty's family.
The Flashback Rick calls our Rick “one of those creeps that moves in with an adult abandoned Beth.” So does that mean our Rick isn’t the only one dimension hopping looking to move into a new family?
czcams.com/video/WxYH5CXbpYA/video.html
Well technically there is an infinte amount of those ricks
The episode where they sent a virus to the whole world turning them into monsters n had to abandon that planet to live new lives yes. There you can see a version of Rick n Morty that only got mutated in their world that moves in that one. Does that count???

Evil Morty even refers to HIMSELF as an evil Morty, saying our Morty is an Evil Morty now, too, for once being tired of Rick, and showing distrust in Rick by asking if Rick only came back because the crows dumped him.
The fact Rick choosing his family is what killed them also parallels really well with the shy pooping episode where the guy choosing to self actualize and live his life is what got him tragically killed while skiing. In fact, it parallels so well that it eliminates any doubt in my mind that this was always the intention for Rick's character, rather than Rick's backstory being decided recently.
I guess it must've been the mail man. lul.
lul 2
Evil Morty & Rick theory:
This would explain, though depressing, why Rick is so introverted and is a hard drunk as well as the origin story for evil Morty. Matt says it himself, "Does he choose Family, or does he choose Science?" In this case, Rick first chose family and then lost his wife and daughter.
But then he does it again!
After the death of his wife and child, Rick finds a new dimension in which his family lives. He continues to love and help raise his grandchildren. Rick gains the trust of his new family and at some point, because Rick chose Family again, ends up killing his family. I think Rick doesn't know evil Morty exists, that he thinks he had actually killed him with the rest of his family. But Evil Morty remembers. He remembers what happened and he swore a vengeance upon all Ricks.
Now Rick is battling his inner demons, he finally realizes that these situations are because of him. He has killed two families (minimum) and now he has a new family. He wants to love this new family, but he's scared it will end in disaster as it always has and always will. To Rick, It appears that there is only one option, and it's an option of pain which can only be soothed by alcohol. Rick can either love and care for his family but it gets destroyed OR Rick can focus on science; watching his family grow but never being a part of it lest he destroys that one too. The only time Rick really spends time with his family is when he's on adventures with them. Not only does Morty camouflage our Rick, No, our Rick brings him around because he loves Morty and he uses the "morty waves" as an excuse to be with him. Rick keeps them as close as he possibly can, walking on that thin line of science and family; longing for them all the while he is sitting right next to them.
Truly devastating
My theory is supported even more by the fact that Rick destroyed the council of Rick's. Perhaps he killed them all in hopes that he can actually love his family again without them interfering.
Morty has become more and more frustrated with Rick as the show develops. I think I know why. Because of his love for this Morty after a million adventures including the Cronenberg incident, Rick continues to not show any kind of affection to Morty as some means of protecting him because he doesn't want him to die. Rick is now at the point that he's scared to choose family, because he's scared to lose it.
underated comment
When you say “he killed his family” does the time when he tried to make morty a love potion but it backfired and he left jerry, Beth and summer to rot count? Yes they survived but the cidadel of ricks froze and possibly killed them because of it.
probably the best theory going tbh, it's annoying only people with ticks get likes. u deserve way more!!
@@prakharsrivastava4951 oooh alright yeh makes sense
So ricks doesnt keep morties bcuz of of thier dimb waves?
It's worth noting, that every “adult abandoned Beth” we've seen in the show never mentions or shows awareness of Diane. I think any reality where Rick would leave (thus creating a place for a 'rehomed' Rick) probably lacks Diane in some way. Which suggests that it isn't Beth that's the fulcrum of Ricks arc, but Diane.
That would actually make sense coz you could explain it off as most ricks seeing just Beth as not enough but if they had Diane they could’ve been satisfied with not leaving
I think Diana prolly died before the start of the show, yeah Beth doesn't mention her but I think she does say something about her Mum to Rick and some point I remember her saying the words Mum before.
JOIN SPO BOB THEORY GANG
Rick did create Clone Beth with memoires of Diane. But Bird Person's memories of Rick's revenge rampage seem to only mention a single person - "Killing us wont bring *her* back." So ya, verw intarestang
i vaguely remember an episode where Beth makes food for the family and Rick makes a comment to the effect of: [compliments Beth's cooking] "Your mother would be so proud."
Wait he called the story being true. Dang
okay i just finished the entire season and I NEED MORE OF THIS WITH THE NEW EPISODES
This whole thing makes sense when you recall how much disdain Rick has for the Council of Ricks, always refusing to join them.
This theory hinges on the fact that Rick told bird person his actual back story. It could be all bunk if Rick has had a long time fake backstory that he tells everyone.
Rick defended himself moving in with abandoned Beths instead of denying it so it seems factual.
It would certainly be in character for Rick to lie, or even forgetting because of all the drugs/booze. The theory is helped somewhat by the fact that Rick is spending so much time drinking and doing drugs while trying to "party": the amount of guilt he is feeling over the death of Beth requires him to go find a positive emotion or suffer from a crippling depression.
I think that the fact that he was doing all this for bird person in the first place, along with the way that battle ended and how it hurt Rick, means that he did genuinely care about and show his real self to bird person. And I think that’s also part of why bird person’s response hurt him so much.
But he didn't deny it when Memory Rick called him out. He got defensive.
@@jayb8934 Thats the one.. if memory rick was wrong, you bet he would have jabbed at that with "if you were the real me, you'd know better" or something to that effect
i need film theory to talk about the finale ASAP
Wow, after having seen the season finale, I can't believe how good this analysis and prediction was. Good job dude!
Awe man, Rick didn't invent the central finite curve to isolate the universes where he's the most intelligent, he did it to protect the isolated universes from himself. He did it to protect his wife and daughter.
Aww geez
So that means probably in season 6 we are gonna see the Smith family meeting all the other Ricks living with dianes and beths but since he chose family In that he wouldn't be as smart
I was just going to post something similar when I saw this! Since there's infinite universes and the central finite curve that seems to have smart Ricks and abandoned Beth's on one side, that must mean there are not abandoned Beth's on the other side. At the same time you would think the word infinite would imply that there is at least one universe on this side of the curve that has a smart Rick and a not Abandoned Beth that is alive?
Your wrong. Watch the episode again. They go out to the Multiverse, find a Rick that is the Smartest in the universe, and connect that to the Curve.
But what if, instead of just finding Natural universes, they MAKE those Universe? The original C-137 Rick we follow, what if the Council of Rick saw he wasn't the smartest but he wasn't quite there yet. So went to offer him the portal to join the Curve. When he Refused, they FORCED his Universe into the Curve, by destroying his wife and Kids, forcing him to be the smartest man, and thus stole his Universe and added it to the Curve.
After all, we see that they DO steal Universes from the outside and add them to the Curve. But we don't see how they select those universes, and if those universes are taken willingly, or forcefully. This is most likely a Tragic Story of the Council wanting to steal his universe to add to the Curve for some reason. Maybe because he truly was the smartest one they have ever encountered in the entire multiverse they have explored. And so wanted to take his universe, but he refused and gave up on Science. And so they had to FORCE the issue, and killed his wife and child as motivation to take both his world, and him, into the curve.
@@Jirodyne wait, but Rick C-137 helped design the Citadel. The central finite curve hadn't been invented yet at the time his family was killed.
it was pretty much canon to parts of the fandom already that our Rick might be from C-137, but our Morty certainly isn't.

All of this now get's comfurmed in s6 e1, great job at finding out. Love ur video's!
You hyped up the season 5 finale but never made a video when it came out I've seen the finale but have been waiting 5 months for your video it was filled with lore perfect for a video
I'm half-an'-half about Rick's fake memory being his real backstory. Yes, I think the stuff in the fake memory did happen, but not in the EXACT same way as depicted. At a bare minimum, I think Rick played himself up as a more loving husband/father than he actually was, both to deceive the agent and to stroke his ego.
Exactly. There's a reason the phrase, "All lies are based on truth" exist. Most likely he picked key elements then exaggerated to make a sob story.
Probably was a DECENT father who was propositioned by another Rick and declined. Then his family dies, unrelated to the Rick proposition, and that pushes him over the edge.
Rewatching this now you were spot on about sooo much. Interesting we still have yet to see "Memory Rick" again.
still waiting for the season summery !
omg it was so good i just sat here for hours spectating what might be next
You know, since Mr. Nimbus was aware of Diane, it's sounds like Rick must have been doing crazy adventures even before working out Portal technology and maybe she was a part of some of them.
Rick having parents was probably the biggest lore drop in this season
czcams.com/video/AYsGlBOLJC4/video.html
....
He’s mentioned he had a father in the unity episode
Anime yes
I hope mat pins your comment
What's next; we find out that Rick runs on alcohol ?!?
I cant believe how precise this theory was and how he is right , Matpatt you're just Supreme IQ lord, im brazilian sorry about my english
Your best video yet! This is wild!
in the “ABC’s of Beth” Rick also says “When you know nothing matters, the universe is yours”
the more Theories on Rick and Morty the More chances the writers will give us More episodes of Rick and Morty please Adult Swim keep this show Alive!
czcams.com/video/WxYH5CXbpYA/video.html
I'm pretty sure Rick and morty have been confirmed for like 3-4 more seasons
We’ve got at least 5 more seasons no matter what.
i forgot.what episode.rick shouted to morty they got 9 seasons
100 YEARS RICK AND MORTY!!
As soon as you hit the ground running with that into i was screaming yes at the top of my lungs!
The hello fresh segment earnt my like👍🏾 it's the packed schedule that won me over
If Morty could accept a whole new family, I can’t see him caring that Rick was an alternate timeline version of his Grandfather.
Ok,
but i do not like the Notion
that you have to choose between Family and Science.
You can have both.
but we're all overlooking 1 thing- Why does Rick need Morty to come along with him on adventures? He's been doing it alone for years, why does he need someone now? In S4 E1 he is forced to ask Morty to come with him to get death crystals instead of just taking him. Why does he need Morty? Sorry if this is a stupid question, I just wanna know-
Morty being a “moron” is like a sheild to ricks makes it harder to find a rick the more mortys u have that are in pain nd tortured the more you are like an invisible blip
He doesnt need morty . Morty is a moronic sheild
It's possible that the morty wave concept is real, it might also be that Rick needs morty more psychologically, IE he needs his grandson, he needs some form of tether.
The difference is when he didnt have morty he was actively hunting Ricks and he probably at the time wasnt a wanted rick killer but now he is so he uses morty as a shield to hide from ricks
True but he also had Birdperson, Squanch and the rest of the crew to keep him tethered. And regarding the pattern masking in Morty, when he was out actively hunting the only ones that would have had reasons to find him would have been the ones who killed his family. Meaning instead of him just going for them, they would possibly come to him for an easier time at getting vengeance. But at the same lines of infinite timelines, then he wouldn't be the only Rick being manhunted either.
its nice seeing theories from years ago before se 6 and 7 where most of these questions got answered and seeing how much they got right
Welp few years later and you got your answer for revealing rick isn't mortys real grandpa. Turns out, brought then closer.
Hasn't most of this been predicted since season 1 episode 10 when "Evil Rick" showed us one of Rick's memories of holding (and crying over) a toddler Morty?
czcams.com/video/WxYH5CXbpYA/video.html
no, cause whatr that memory showed us was "Ok Rick actually knew baby morty, but in our dimension rick abandoned beth so how could he know baby morty? The answer is : Baby morty is Evil Morty". The death beth thing never showed up actually
@@majorasmask_8288 yeah
@@majorasmask_8288 but no
I think Beth must have died later in life, after she had Morty, that Rick met????
I think this is a good reason why rick treats everyone like garbage, especially morty. He wants morty to stay because he knows what its like being alone, and he believes that if he treated people like he loved them, they might die too. This also shows why rick shows signs of fear/saddness when morty wants to leave.
Now we know Rick separated all the universes where he is the smartest being alive and is only able to travel to those. Did he do that to protect innocent versions him, his wife and daughter? Never to be tempted by other ricks.
Wow! That's a interesting idea!
I first thought that could be for the Ricks establish a multiverse in which there's no one who can rivalize them.
I came back to this theory a year after it was posted and JUST NOW got that "hit the ground running" joke.
It’s interesting that the Rickest Rick initially chose his family over science and that the consequences of that decision are what led him to becoming the Rickest Rick.
I was just thinking that. That makes him a truer Rick because he did the right thing he chose family. It’s why he hates the Citadel of Ricks. It makes so much sense. I love how rounded out this theory makes the show.
I really hope the Rickest Rick meeting with the Dianest Diane in season 6... Oh God! I really want this to happen!!!!
I imaged Rick when he was a kid as a smarter stewie griffin, like right out of the box Rick was just able to speak fluent English
JOIN SPO BOB THORIE GANG
Pwwppw
@FandomKween13❎ nah nah nah Stewie speaks British totally different man
Stewie is Rick would be an amazing film theory
hwip is the proper way of saying whip
Just finished watching season 5 waiting for you new Rick and morty theory
This is the main reason why Rick acts like his doesn't care bout his family. Because they're not his
Or, hear me out, that origin story is still fabricated, because it’s something he told BP as well. Since the whole episode is a romp through BP’s mind and memories, who’s to say Rick didn’t tell him the same made up origin?
czcams.com/video/AYsGlBOLJC4/video.html
.
I also think it needs to be some sort of fabrication because if beths who have ricks stay end up dying, and beths who stay alive and grow up but didn’t have Rick around for her, and our Rick is the “Beth who dies” Rick, how would our Rick know about floopy land?
Don't you *burp* establish canonical backstory with me!! (Although you're still right it could technically still be a red herring, this show is hard to predict)
But he loved BP so he may have told him the truth
I dont even watch rick and morty. why am i here lol
If Rick lives with a different version of his family, where does Evil Morty come into play? Does Evil Morty have any connection to Rick, or was Evil Morty his original Morty and Rick moved to a dimension of an abandoned Beth twice, once with Evil Morty and once with our Morty?
It's possible that Morty was how Rick originally looked until he hopped dimensions living as his own grandfather... maybe he took on Rick's appearance to escape what he did in the future and came back to the past and cloned himself impregnating Beth to make Morty take the blame in the future. But this is just one of my theories that they probably wouldn't do since it would make for a rather lame backstory.
@@W0lfbaneShikaisc00l I don't think so since evil morty is our morty's age.
@@W0lfbaneShikaisc00l this would contradict the after credits scene where we see young Rick
@@W0lfbaneShikaisc00l and we saw kid Rick in the newest episode, so we know he looks nothing like morty
Has anyone ever thought that evil morty just tried to frame a random rick maybe they don't know each other at all
This helped me understand Rick and morty heaps! Thanks Pat, you’reee myyy heroooo!
I’m not gonna lie this “theory” that you just gave has always been my understanding of the show I never knew it was just a theory 😂😂
Omg this is why Beth said she didn’t want Rick to leave and chose him over jerry
Here's a theory for you: The reason Rick is so against time travel is because he tried to use it to save his Beth and Diane, but they would end up getting killed by the Citadel of Ricks.
I kind of wonder if this Rick is the original inventor of the portal gun and that he is also supposed to be the inventor of time travel.
That the reason he was forced into inventing the gun was because the Citadel was given the secret by a time traveling Rick and this gun needed to be made by this Rick to exist. (Though the Citadel may have been unaware of who the original inventor was at the time thus forcing every Rick to figure it out so that the loop can exist.) And this Rick somewhere along the line learned of this loop and is trying to actively avoid inventing reliable time travel. So that he can't go back and start the cycle.
Nah, the creators of rick and morty just don't want any kind of time travel
creators of the show just said it gets too complicated so they wont do it
Know what really shows he's the Rickest Rick? That he's potentially the only rick to have refused the Portal tech, Leading to his family getting killed, leading to him going on a Rick killing rampage to find the one that took his Family away
Great episode. Also sparking a new idea. Maybe he didn’t master time travel in time for him to go back and save his family which is why he hasn’t given it up. Could be the reason he leaves it as a project. Maybe the dilemma was that him time traveling and saving his family would mean killing himself, (so he can replace himself)
6:28 The stand up comedy memory in which we see the blue pants version of Rick, since he already knows BP, takes place after the ones in which we first see his long hair version. So either he loses his wife and daughter > then goes through a phase where he keeps his hair longer, distributes drugs and meets BP > and then gets back to his previous style, or something doesn't add up in the timeline
czcams.com/video/aJM5H12FSw4/video.html
This really did slap me in the face with lore, Mr. Harmon was right! This expands a whole new potential for lore, this even backs up your evil Morty theory. Morty now knowing that Rick isn’t his Rick, draws him to become evil. Wow matt great episode!
Actually this episode proves that the Beth they left behind in the Cronenberged Earth wasn't Rick's original Beth, further proving that the Cronenberged Earth _ISN'T_ Earth C-137 and that it is also likely that Rick has lived in several universes, thus also making the images of Rick with baby and toddler Morty in seasons 1 and 2 more likely to be true.
Thus, by extension, it has more or less been proven that Rick has left behind at least one other Morty, either because he thought that Morty died or because that morty became too cocky. In conclusion, the theory that Evil Morty is one of Rick's past Mortys is now almost confirmed and thus the theory about Rick's current Morty becoming Evil Morty in the future-past is now even more disproven, following season 5's pattern of disproving that theory at least once in every episode.
czcams.com/video/WxYH5CXbpYA/video.html
@The Film Theorists Hi guys, I'm new in this channel and I was thinking that in the season 5 final episode Evil Morty said that Rick created a wall of universes away from the others when he's the smartest man in the universe. Why would Ricks do that? They are probably scared or protecting his family of someone? What if now that EM destroyed the curve it means that in one of those universes lives the Evil Rick who killed Rick's C-137 family or maybe even an Evil Diane. Interisting right? Please let me know if some of you guys think like me or have more ideas.
This is also an additional punch in the gut when you remember what happened on Season 2 Finale. He finally decides to open himself to the idea of love again at Bird Person's wedding, only for him to be brutally killed in front of him, with a later follow up swearing at himself and his family for even thinking about such a thing.
czcams.com/video/j3b4FJWFSAA/video.html
This explains why, even though there are infinite universes, there’s a limited number of universes they can travel to when they destroy one, like in the Rick Potion episode.
Woah! I remember being so confused how infinite universes could have a finite amount of “coincidental death timings” to slide into but it actually does make sense
They explain why there’s a finite amount of universes in the season 5 finale
@@goodname7660 No they don't they simply separated the infinite universes where he's a god from the infinite universes where he's not. The number line is infinite, but there's also infinite numbers between 0 and 1. The CFC is the numbers from 0 to 1. The other universes is all the other numbers.
They are infinite number of universes they can travel, its just that everytime is harder to found one, just like prime numbers.
@@danielchoi4490 then it would’ve been called “central infinite curve”
First i know that the story not fabricated since I have seen S:5 Ep:10, but if it was:
1. Diane would still look the same he didn't creat a new person, he just created a different story
2. The first portal gun would still look like that since once in his life time he did make a prototype
I'm really here for more facial expressions, they're hilarious 🤣... I like the theories also
This also should confirm that this current Morty isn’t his first Morty either. Because he had memories of seeing a baby Morty.
It would be ironic it's Evil Morty, the first of the first, the Mortiest of Morty for Rickiest of Rick and the Morty that fade up and give up on his Rick.
@@nashwise4everGM couldn't be his morty because his beth and diane died meaning he never had his 'own' morty
You forgot a piece of the puzzle. Remember the episode where Rick reveals he made a pocket dimension safe zone to keep Beth after she started asking him to make very odd and potentially dangerous items to use on other people? At what point did Rick start saving people who crossed Beth's "bad seed" style psycho-path?
Came here to make the same comment
It’s possible Rick made invented pocket dimension technology before inventing interdimensional travel, so the theory could still check out.
Also what really confuses my is that he has memories of child morty in close rick counters of the rick kind but it is said somewhere in the series that he left beth for tweenty years(which would be before morty was born but quite a bit after the first set of diane and beth were killed)
@@sonofgaming1546 is it possible that those are just Beth's memories from that time-line and that Rick somehow accessed them in order to blend in better?
I don't think it negates this... He could have went on his rampage and then ended up back at "an abandoned beths house" maybe even one where diana died but Beth didn't...
this was heart wrenching... thank you.
this also goes along with your evil morty theory where rick is evil mortys original rick
And with the last episode, we can theorize that rick built the central finite curve to prevent other rick to have the same fate. All the jerk ricks stuck inside a finite infinity. A way to prevent them to affect other Ricks who gave up to take care of their family
Oh dang
And Evil Morty saw it as a prison because he wanted out
Other Ricks would still have the same fate within the Central Finite Curve. A Rick coming in and killing a young Rick’s family is possible.
Since it’s a multiverse. Some universes probably take place at different time periods. So an infinite amount of Ricks will continue to have C-137’s fate. Remember, all the Ricks in the curve are the smartest in their universe. Doesn’t mean that their families won’t be killed by another Rick or even by someone else entirely.
CONGRATULATIONS MATPAT!!!
The Season Finale of the 5th season confirmed your theory!
Congrats to FT’ team!
Another one for the win
@acktually aintaddingup ... You keep commenting that episode 8 disproves this video... which is a theory about episode 8. So the source of this video theory is what disproves this video theory? Sounds awfully convoluted.
did you notice that Rick points us to the WRONG episode in the last episode when they say check season 1 episode 9... cuz ep 9 is the one with the Devil, not with Evil morty. So the Stan Lee-Rick who tells us to check an old episode is misleading us, "Summer your grand father IS the devil!" -the Devil Alfred Molina
