>>211911354 (OP)too straightforward, kept waiting for rick to have some "fuck you i'm an insane genius" moment with his parents but he just straight up just liked them so much that he didn't want them hurt?
they should've died at the very least so we saw rick doesn't get to keep anything he enjoys but they didn't even do that.
wasn't even a subversion of a subversion just played completely straight like it was a family guy episode
