the entire episode of rick potion 9 is just the feelings i have for morty divided into so many different people and the first instinct they have is to molest. beautiful.
I’ve alluded to it and so has everyone else but I just realized it further, Ted really DID just speedrun Rick’s trauma. Finding out about his smarts/alternate selves one day, losing his wife, waging a war against himself only to finally stop, give up and accept reality with Morty
I feel so corny for relating that new olivia rodrigo song with rick but im sorry that chorus is so in line with his character and especially fits with this week's episode
