‘Rick and Morty,’ season 5 episode 2 is a complex and layered yet irreverent and hysterical adventure of the titular duo. The episode is an interesting take on the synthetic life trope of sci-fi films made popular by the works of Isaac Asimov. It opens with a decoy version of Rick’s family being killed by a group of squid aliens. From there, a tantalizing trail of fakeouts forms to reveal that there are multiple decoy families who are at war with each other.
It is riveting to watch the various decoys come to terms with the truth of their existence in unique ways. Through these decoys, the episode explores the flaws in the family. The episode also highlights Rick’s latent need to protect his family despite him being the source of the constant dangers they face. As the episode closes out, it leaves us desiring for more, and for those of you who are impatiently waiting for the animated comedy’s next episode, here’s a look at what you can expect from ‘Rick and Morty’ season 5 episode 3.
