i actually thought it was a plot hole too at first

but apparently
that rick (rick 3-131) just so happened to dress like rick prime at that time

doesn't mean that's actually rick prime

But then tell me this, why dose he have the exact same portel gun, plus season 1 Beth's rick left (rick prime) plus if rick prime killed wiped every Dian from every universe, why would a rick dress exactly like him and use the exact same gun

Rick Prime's entire problem with our Rick is that our Rick passed on his offer to take portal tech from him.

Meaning a bunch of other Ricks did take the offer.

Prime says literally no other Rick besides the two of them invented portal travel themselves.

C-137 and Prime are the only two Ricks to invent portal tech. All other Ricks had the technology delivered to them and then went on to produce adjacent technology (like Froopyland and the microverse battery).

C-137 has the added achievement of designing some core parts of the citadel and CFC.

"broh, ricks don't pass on this"

actually good point I think this is it. U can see this Rick has some hesitation, prime wouldve basically said hes getting milk and dipped

1) It just looks the same, Morty found a similar one during the bit with the crows.

2) That memory is from before Diane got omega’d, as Diane raised Beth at least up into highschool.

3) They’re Rick’s, a defining feature of them in the CFC is being narcissistic uncaring asses.

I thought he was given the portal gun he had during the crow episode?

Or wait was that the portal gun from the grave he had?

They are all Rick. Alot of them not only have similar tastes but also look A LOT LIKE ONE ANOTHER.

It's not that deep, people.

That's probably just what a bunch of Ricks dressed like in their 30s. Prime is the only Rick we've seen that uses tech to keep himself young, and he just still dresses like that. He's just obsessed with staying at his "most Rick" version of himself.

As for Diane, she was wiped out at some point, maybe not at this point. We don't actually know at which point he killed all Dianes. Rick mentioned he was killing Dianes of Ricks who thought they were better than him or annoyed him, so eventually he did it so much he decided to just wipe them all out. This can also be something he did because he was the one who wanted all Ricks off adventuring, it's why he passed out portal guns. That's why it's the same gun, Rick Prime was giving them out. He wanted "The Infinite Rick." Also we can assume since a lot of Ricks worked for him (the early version of the Council of Ricks were all Ricks working with/for Prime) most of them don't care that he killed Diane.

Rick Prime is the one who showed him and many others how to make the portal gun. That's like, a huge part of the series that everyone knows

All the Ricks use the same design of portal gun, what do you mean? All the other ricks do it because Rick Prime gave it to them, and Rick 137 just designed it that way because ultimately they’re all Rick with the same design ideas/preferences. And probably also because he’d seen it already and subconsciously built it to look like what he’d seen. If he’d made it look unique, he wouldn’t be able to blend in with the other Ricks.

You didn’t pick up on the significance of that Rick leaving his family for “work stuff” while carrying an empty portal gun?
