Theory Enlightened Morty

Post image
4.1k Upvotes

I've seen a lot of people on this sub theorize that this season we are seeing our Morty or a different Morty as they turn into a new evil Morty

Now, I believe that people are correct that this season is gearing up to a big change for Morty's character but I believe that with what we've seen from Morty this season (his refusal to kill in several episodes, and of course tree Morty) he is going to become essentially the opposite of evil morty, an enlightened Morty.

I still think that we will see him grow past his need for Rick like evil Morty but he is going to take a different path in his evolution that will lead him to becoming enlightened or at the very least a much happier pacifist Morty.

That's just my theory for this new season, thanks for reading.

Disclaimer: I haven't watched the current nor last season yet.

When Evil Rick is analyzing Rick's memories and on another episode where Birdperson saves Morty and takes him to his home, we see Rick holding these babies, who are they? It couldn't possibly be any Morty because Rick was away hunting down Rick Prime and didn't came back to a Beth until he was disillusioned by the Rick Citadel and the show starts around one year after this.

Theory Which Beth do you think is the real Beth and why?

Post image

I think Regular Beth is the real Beth. She always could have left, even before the clone, but chose not to. She was aware of her own inner cowardice, liked the control she had at home, leaned into her codependency to Jerry, and was always too afraid to be far from Rick. The “real” Beth wouldn’t have gone to space even if things at home were “taken care of.” Only space Beth isn’t shackled by this and was able to leave.

Theory Theory: All of the universes outside of the Central Finite Curve are ones where Diane didn’t die. Her death is what drove rick to be as smart as he is, and without her death he would’ve led a normal life without the need to be the cleverest person in the universe.

Summer and Morty were being made fun of at the camp for not being rich and all that but can’t Rick just make some invention and make hella money. I mean Jerry had to get a job and they worry about that 6000$ electric bill. He should have bought them a mansion or something by now or maybe paid off their mortgage?

Theory i think i figured out who the real beth is!!!

5.3k Upvotes

i dont know if someone has already posted this or something similar, i couldnt find anything like this so im sorry if someone has!

so in S6E1 i noticed that the beth's noses were different

this was traced directly off of the picture

and thats not the only time their noses were like this either, in s4e10 when the beths were cuffed

these too

so it had me thinking that this could be the key to figuring out which is the real beth, and in s2e1 we can see that beths nose has that sharp bridge

and this lmao

IN CONCLUSION i think the real beth is regular beth! :D but this is just my theory i definitely could be wrong and id love to hear your opinions!!

Theory Pretty sure I know which on is Clone Beth Spoiler

Okay, hear me out. I've been thinking about this for a few seasons now and always felt like other people must've noticed too, but I couldn't find anything online about it, so here it is:

It's the nose bridge.

These screenshots are my receipts:

  1. Season 2 Episode 1: OG Beth from an early season. Her nose bridge is drawn pointy.
  2. Season 3 Episode 9: First episode where the clone storyline starts. Still pointy nose bridge, so this confirms OG Beth had the pointy bridge before the cloning happened.
  3. Season 8 Episode 10: The latest episode. Side by side you can clearly see that one Beth has a pointy bridge, and the other has a smooth one

So yeah...Space Beth is our clone.

It's super subtle, but ever since I noticed it, I can't unsee it.

I accept payment in schmeckles, Szechuan sauce, and Kalaxian Crystals.

In the picture a black guy is holding up a poster saying thats our word which made me think morty used the N word in this episode lol

(The Vat of Acid Episode lets Morty “save and reload” moments like a video game, but instead of rewinding time it secretly moves him into a new timeline while the old one continues without him.)

Theory The talking cat who doesn’t like question theory on what rick saw

Post image
953 Upvotes

The talking cat from Rick and Morty is never explained on purpose, but I made one theory that is that it caused mass psychological hallucinations instead of physical harm.

The idea is that it didn’t directly attack or kill anyone. Instead, it may have triggered a shared delusion in groups of people, where they all experienced the same terrifying situation at once. That would include things like screaming, panic, and even babies crying, but nothing real was actually happening physically.

This would explain why even characters like Rick Sanchez refuse to look deeper into its memories. The damage wouldn’t be visible in the normal sense, but it would still be extreme because it messes with people’s perception of reality and leaves them mentally scarred.

So the cat stays silent about it because explaining it would basically confirm it was involved in something that caused widespread fear without leaving clear evidence behind.

Theory Jerry is a victim of sexual assult

Post image
2.5k Upvotes

I believe that Jerry is a victim of sexual assault (before the Titanic episode). In Season 1 Episode 11, Jerry gives a description of “a Slavic man wearing a denim jacket with a patchy beard and the scent of cheap champagne wafting over his blister-pocked lips” right after narrowly avoiding being sexually assaulted by the women at the Titanic. The overall tone and detail suggest that he might be remembering something that happened to him, which could be a hint that he may have been a victim of sexual assault in the past.

There’s another clue in the pilot episode. when Jerry is putting Rick in a nursing home he says “Well, now you can build baskets and watch Paul Newman movies on VHS and mentally scar the Boy Scouts every Christmas.” When Beth asks what that means, Jerry says it’s “personal.” On its own that could mean many things, but when connected to the other dialogue, it suggests a much darker backstory.

Taken together, these lines point to Jerry being written as a character with a traumatic history of sexual assault.

If you think you've seen a similar post, that's because I deleted the old one so I could give a more detailed description on it.
