Of course, he’s been real this whole time. Join Rick and Morty on as they trek through alternate dimensions, explore alien planets, and terrorize Jerry, Beth, and Summer. Their escapades often have potentially harmful consequences for their family and the rest of the world. The kicker is Beth assuming that the peppy Mr. Rick is a mad scientist who drags his grandson, Morty, on crazy sci-fi adventures. Each parasite that's unrooted in the absurd vignettes that take place in the episode – such as Reverse Giraffe saving Ghost in a Jar’s life in Vietnam – brings the family back together again, even if it comes at a tragic cost. They range from the tragic (Sleepy Gary), to the weird (Amish Cyborg) and the intentionally lazy (Ghost in a Jar). The concept really allows the creative team – from the creators to the artists – to have a lot of fun, and it shows. When the Smith-Sanchez household is overrun by parasites who invent memories of made-up friends and family, Rick must root out the dozens of potential fakes to save the day. Ooo-eee! Here it is: the best Rick and Morty episode – and god bless the animators who worked on it.
