While most of these on the list will be comprised of Rick with Morty, considering that’s who Rick goes on his adventures with the most, I had to at least include one moment between Rick and his granddaughter, Summer.
Thank God for that, because who would have known what would happen to Summer if she didn’t have that toothpick as that one episode “thing.”
In the Season 4 episode, “Promortyus,” Rick, Morty, and Summer end up going on an adventure to a world that is run by face-sucking parasites that control the brains of the ones they inhabit, before dying literally thirty minutes later after being born.
Summer is completely forgotten by Rick when they somehow find a way out, but instead of becoming a parasite, she ends up becoming ruler of the world because of a toothpick in her mouth that the parasites witnessed as a godly act, and encourages the Glorzo (the parasites) to rebuild their world.
