I appreciated that the ultimate point this storyline was trying to make wasn't an indictment of organized religion so much as a reminder that people will ascribe meaning and importance to any old stupid thing.When Jerry and Beth go away to take part in a re-creation of the sinking of the Titanic, Rick and Summer throw a party that gets out of control.īeth and Jerry leave on a trip to experience the Titanic 2, a recreation of the Titanic experience. I stole a paperclip and I have it in my cheek, but I don't know what to do with it, and it hurts!' 'But I am a baby! I'm a baby now!' The subplot only got better as Rick and Morty started their performance and the cult began misinterpreting the giant heads' displeasure as a sign to erupt into all-out civil war. Jerry especially was a hoot this week, with lines like: 'Summer, listen carefully. The idea that they would punish thieves, Goths and movie-talkers by sending them sailing into the clouds to return as newborn babies was sublimely ridiculous. The episode got a lot of mileage out of humanity's reaction to being invaded by giant god heads and the religious cult that sprang up as a result. This might be the first episode where the subplot was stronger than the main storyline. Again, there were a lot of great, silly moments on tap this week. And the return of Bird-Person, who is apparently still hooking up with Tammy long after the events of 'Ricksy Business.' And Rick's snake-making wristwatch.

On the plus side, we got President Keith David busting a groove with Rick and Morty. The only thing that could have made T's role better is if he were actually voiced by Ice-T. The closing scene, where Ice-T evolved into Water-T and waged war against the Numbericons, might be the best post-credits sequence the show has offered. Seeing him kick back, munch Fig Newtons and chill with Rick and Morty was amusing enough, but then came the ridiculously sublime origin story of this immortal water being cursed to wander the galaxy and never care about anything. For one thing, there was the fact that Ice-T was a supporting character. But if the story didn't really come together this week, there were more than enough weird twists and bits of humor to make the overall experience enjoyable.

It also didn't help that 'Get Schwifty' didn't really have anything new or insightful to add when it comes to poking fun at reality TV culture. The idea that Morty's anxiety was messing with Rick's groove was fine, but the ultimate lesson 'Learn to worry less' doesn't really hit home the way a lot of the dramatic resolutions do on this show. Why not just offer a repeat performance of 'Get Schwifty' and leave it at that? It was clearly a better song than anything the rest of the galaxy could conjure up.

Rick and Morty transitioned from having to save the world through the power of music to, well, having to save the world through the power of music. The problem is that the conflict didn't escalate from there. Instead, that was just the first seven minutes of the episode. Most shows would have been content to stop there, with the heroes rocking out and saving the day. This episode opened with a giant, floating head arriving on earth, sending civilization into chaos and demanding to be appeased with a catchy pop tune.
