Still hard to believe that our Rick used to be normal he probably would've ended up like simple rick if Rick Prime didn't kill his family, Rick Prime made our Rick devastated and I hope as the show progresses Rick defeats Rick Prime for all the pain he has caused him

I personally like the idea of Rick Prime having found a way to be connected to his infinite variants across the multiverse, similar to Evelyn in Everything, Everywhere, all at Once. His mind is in a state of superposition across the multiverse

It's also possible he's using a variation of portal tech to exist in multiple places. Like, if his sit is lined with portal fluid, and portions of his signal are popping into those locations. His thumb signal on Pluto. His ear signal on Saturn. His butt signal on Uranus

Did you see Rick Prime's portal gun? It has numerous outputs. I think Rick prime discovered something like quantum-portal-travelling which enables him to travel multiple places and be there but simoultaneously also not. He is more like in a super-position and since his portal gun has numerous outputs he can (dis)appear wherever he wants in an exponential rate

6:30 I think the multiple copies of Rick prime is a thing that suits him a lot and also makes sense. When Rick C-137 first confronted Rick prime with Morty in the space labyrinth, Rick prime brought up numerous timers and said one of them is probably accurate. He loves hiding the real thing in a bunch of fake/false things so probably did the same with him. Or maybe all the Rick prime locations are just his clones and the real Prime is totally somewhere else onto something else.

I believe that Rick created the curve simply to make it easier to find prime Rick, and when he’s scanning in the last episode he is scanning the universes contained within then curve, this narrowed his search from infinity to infinity-1 which is a big improvement. Just a theory I got when I did a full binge

[@avocado4883]

Personally I think the brainwaves hiding thing is just a red herring, or just an excuse that Rick uses to spend time with his grandson without having to admit his love for him, or without admitting that Ricks just like how subserviant Morty's are, they are the only ones who will put up with him but are still somewhat competent. We've already seen that Morty isn't dumb, or atleast has the capacity to be extremely intelligent so his dumbess hiding Rick's smartness feels like it doesn't fit anymore

[@stevedixon921]

Morty was the one to realize you can indeed 'hide' from the Freddy guy (the episode where they go into other peoples dreams multiple times). Rick failed to figure it out before Morty. So, the whole Morty waves explanation is likely fiction, especially in light of Rick's pre-murdered family personality. That and Rick did go on adventures without Morty without anyone seeming to track him. As mentioned previously, Rick just likes being with his grandson, he just cannot say it.

[@jackgoodall4101]

Maybe Rick Prime can kind of 'absorb' other people explaining how he doesn't need a Morty with and that he can have Unity's ability to be in multiple places at once. He absorbed both of them, and probably someone with regenerative powers too

[@LloydsChill]

One thing I’ve always wondered is how they know which rick has a special trait. (ex. Doofus Rick and The Rickest Rick) Im thinking maybe he was trying to gather all the special ricks for something. Perhaps a group of the strongest/superior ricks or something 😳 Edit: Rick Prime also said “Ricks don’t pass on this” which might be questioning why he isnt being like normal ricks and overall reinforcing the theory of Prime being connected to him for his Rickest Rick title. This was also the only thing consistent through the backstories.

[@God-T]

that a good point. rick didnt need ultimate power "He passed up the idea" same way they implie when a person who dosen't want to be the Leader beacuse they think they might suck at the Job. Prime rick was propably shocked & suprised to see rick refuse the call to porotal gun adventure beacuse most ricks nomally say yes. Maybe he was even little jealous beacuse rick refusedit him so quickly.

[@Fayanora]

I think Rick Prime may in fact be a hive mind, spreading himself around among millions of clones of himself and/or decoys, and so he literally IS in all those places at once, since his mind is no longer centralized. Our Rick may have to kill every single one of these copies in order to kill Rick Prime for good. To that end, he may need to mend fences with Unity and even reach out to that Borg looking hive mind.

[@Becksy_Boo]

I don't think they are decoys bcs that means each decoy isn't him, so that mean each dot it where he could be, but rick makes it clear that each dot is literally him, not that each dot was possibly be him. So I think it's more like quantum entanglement where he is in multiple place at the same time and they all share a hive mind.

[@rubaemaster7036]

There’s actually something I noticed that you didn’t properly bring up. Rick Prime suggests he can be an infinite Rick, a god. After Rick C-137 says no and makes Rick Prime leave, you can notice his portal gun is different than any other Rick’s that we’ve seen. What if that had something to do with the technology he wanted to give him, as in his portal gun travel is superior to other portal guns. My idea is it breaks the law of conservation of mass and allows multiple versions of him to come out the other side at different locations. That way even if one was killed a potential infinite number of others would still be alive

[@shadowguarder2857]

Spoiler alert from season 7 episode 5 : All ricks except prime and c-137 got the portal gun from either c-137/prime, from someone who got it from them, or from someone who got it from someone who got it from them. Prime and c-137 are the ONLY TWO who created the portal gun.

[@ricoadiputra9805]

Rick Prime is a metaphor for prime numbers, All the Rick's belonged to an infinite number line of real numbers and Rick Prime is a Rick that has no factors but Rick 1 (origin) and himself. There IS an infinite number of primes as well (season 6 ending). 137 is also a prime

[@blackgriffinxx]

Here is a theory. Rick prime or Rick c137 is the branch point for all ricks. By getting each Rick a portal gun. it cause a weird effect. Which prime rick used to get is immortally by linking all of them to him so that why he is every where.

[@reddragon7762]

The finite curve was invented as a Flashpoint by Rick. He isolated every universe where what prime rick did, happened, which is the multiverse we see. The central finite curve. Thus guaranteeing his opponent can never leave his reach, even if he can't grab hold of prime rick yet. He search the verses, High, low, and everywhere. He doesn't respect time travel because it can't be used to bring back his family, the main point of time travel, to change the future. He already did time travel before and came to that conclusion. He will mess with time, but ultimately if you can't do it or none of you have done it then time travel would be of no help, nor would it actually affect his specific verse in the multiverse. As we seen from snake jazz, by the snakes own end by its use and by his own use of time travel. If his future self couldn't make the suits they wore, they wouldn't have shown up in the past to give him the suits. What we seen is his burnout over doing everything he could to find prime rick. He gave up and just waited with primes morty for a return he knew prime wouldn't do. His mistake of reseting portal travel was something he never thought to do, thus when his wife AI mentioned it also reset prime, a verse and place he knew well, it reinvigorated his motivation as he now had fresh clue to work with. After which was verified when finding primes base and a "clone" of prime. Prevouslion he only had clues that were 50 or 60 years old by that point and nothing to go on, already exhausted all his options. Till now I also seem to believe primes motivation lies at our rick being his antithesis. A rick who is prime in his science, his noncaring in its wake and sake. A rick who is immortal but as all Rick's say, the universe balances itself. The universes resolution for prime is rick. Don't forget, all Rick's in the curve, are rick, and prime rick was the first, thus they are all to some degree, just like prime rick. Also remember that prime rick killed Rick's family, before there was a finite curve. Prime rick sought out, of ALL Rick's, our rick. Another note, if creating portal travel caused a point of no return for prime, his last need for immortality achievement would be to make sure every version of himself in every verse has portal tech or it connected to portal tech. Therefore no possibility exists of which prime doesn't exist, as well as being immortal. Ultimately I think rick will fail. While morty will be the one to find prime rick and summer be the one to stop him. Lots of reasons including the philosophical nature of the show its creators tell me such. Rick doesn't deserve to succeed but that doesn't mean his goal doesn't deserve to, and what better than his grandchildren that he never got to have himself, complete the ultimate goal against prime rick in another essence of "passing on the torch" "do better than me, morty" ect.

Forgive me this is long lol- I have a theory. C-137 and prime knew each other previous to their ‘first encounter’ in fact they loved each other. It was foreshadowed when Beth did it, as Rick once said “like father like goddamn daughter”. C-137 is primes perfect exact carbon copy, but as we know as with infinite universes SOMETHING has to be different. They got really close and for once in his multidimensional life prime cared about something. he cared about C-137 and he tried to convince him to do whatever prime wanted to do and c-137 had one difference, he cared about his family too much. C-137 chose his family over prime and so prime killed his family to ultimately give him no choice. But instead of joining him he dedicated his life to kill prime. You have a backstory that makes sense given ricks personality, you got motive, and something just meta but also sort of corny and are able to bough your be the case 🤷🏻‍♂️ we know Rick isn’t fully straight and full of himself, especially before the series started.

[@hambone0000]

Perhaps Rick prime can split himself into multiple pieces using enhanced living nanotechnology. Retaining all of himself in multiples copies or smaller hims like how Morty was spread in the game Roy. Each player has a piece of the original but each were own being. This would ensure there's no confusion on who's in charge. The nanotech could allow for the originals data from the cells or body part's memories to be read, build a better body for the part, and recover the body in case of damage. That's my guess.

[@mlmbird]

Maybe, they were trying to escape. The whole premisse of the citadel of ricks ended up being an huge portal gun that could pierce through the Omni verse, but I guess the more they got their heads stuck up their asses, the less they needed/ wanted to flee and got complicent with their realities, seen by the fact there where different works on citadel of ricks, even though they were geniuses. Maybe Rick c137 was trying to create a different portal gun that could also pierce the omniverse, and prime Rick was saying "You don't pass the green portal, and if you try so, there will be consequences", consequences that made him get stuck in this multiverse of ricks

[@TheClassicKB]

I like that theory because evil morty had a gold portal gun so maybe the blue one was probably going to be the ultimate portal gun

[@greenpeasuit]

C-137 doesn't "do" time travel. Maybe this was the opportunity Ricks dont "pass on". So, since C-137 "passed" on the opportunity, Prime decided to give him an REASON to time travel. Kill his whole family, and he would have no choice but to travel back to save them. He misjudged C-137. His pride would not let him do this and submit to Prime's manipulation.

[@xxtool420xx]

I think the reason why Rick prime wanted Rick C137 to accept his offer isn't because he seen him creating a portal machine. he see's potential within him and he wanted to be more like him , a God that can do anything he wanted to do alone, showing no care in the Universe. But he refuses which that agitated Rick prime since he knows that almost every infinite possibilities versions of ricks do not pass offers like that.

So what if They took a concept like from Harry Potter for Rick primes where abouts? He's like voldemort? He leaves a piece of himself/soul so now he's more immortal?

[@treyneitge8537]

Ight, so the Morty thing to me is a weird thing because if it's literally "brain waves" then you could nullify it with a basic constant emp. Rick prime probably has clones of himself running around and that's what Rick scanned so it makes sense that Rick primes clones would show up. I imagine it's a hive mind thing where they're all connected to the central Rick prime (crp) And then get information and orders from crp for what to do next. Another idea is if Rick prime and crp are both immortal there isn't a reason they themselves can't be operating in a pocket dimension getting hundreds of thousands of years ahead of the other rick's in terms of intelligence and technology

[@giggedy96]

As far as I understood Rick prime is the original Rick C-137. At least Rick said he is hunting Mortys original Rick which in this case must be the original C-137. Also I believe the Rick they found in the Pilot of this season in his base must have been the real Rick prime because everyone got sent into their original reality. Morty was sent to cronenberg world (C-137) Jerry got sent to hell and Rick got sent to his original dimension. Rick prime also landed on C-137. Well that's my theory 🤷

i have a theory (theories?) 1. rick c-137 along with (seemingly) all ricks dont do time travel. Reasons would be that there are "time police" and my theoretical reason is that rick prime messed with time. this would explain him being in multiple places at once hence rick prime may have broken the space time continuum for either himself (making time clones of himself) OR broke the continuum for all ricks (making every rick look the same when trying to be tracked. I personally believe that the first is more plausable. 2. rick prime was always one step ahead of rick and always let rick c 137 know in the worst ways. my theory is that rick c 137 is working dirty like rick prime was by experimenting with the decoys to exploit whether or not rick prime was using a similar technique. Rick c 137 may have secluded himself and stopped being himself to stay a step ahead of himself to try to figure out rick primes next move. i think this paired with rick prime using time clones is pretty solid, please let me know what you think!!

[@protorhinocerator142]

If you watch the fake Shoney's memories about Rick Prime and the actual memories Morty watched, there are subtle differences in the scenery, dialogue, and motions of the Ricks. I found it interesting that the neighborhood houses were a little different. Now to get Rick C-137 a paradox-free time wish from Gravity Falls, so he can get Beth and Diane C-137 back. And just for fun, they haven't aged. Diane might not like the bitter old man Rick has become. Beth still loves daddy, but she's a little girl and will be raised by the Smith family as Morty and Summer's sister. They know who she is, but it just makes more sense to raise her this way. And they all live in the same house, making it all super weird for everyone.

[@protorhinocerator142]

OK I'm instantly liking this idea. Diane doesn't like bitter old C-137 and wants her real husband back. She doesn't like living with the Smiths because she won't accept them as her real family and blames them for Rick being so bitter, even though he tells her he changed after she was killed. She wants to move out with Rick into their own house with little Beth. She doesn't want her daughter calling "Fake Beth" her mommy, even by accident. She and little Beth are moving out on her own with or without Rick. So Rick agrees. Now the Smith house is super boring and even Jerry is going nuts without alien invasions or emergency visits from the President. Meanwhile at the Sanchez house, Rick still wants to go on adventures with Morty. Diane doesn't like this at all, because that's not really our grandson. Also Rick promised her before she died, that there would be no more sci-fi inventions to pull him away from her. Worse, little Beth wants to go on adventures with them. Diane doesn't like these adventures at all, and Rick values little Beth over every other Beth in the multiverse. It's too dangerous. It's at this point where you see little Beth's imaginative and evil side make its presence known. She becomes a figure much like Evil Morty, going on her own adventures and causing trouble. Rick has to stop her while still being a kind father. At one point little Beth shoots Jerry in the leg and just as Rick is about to scold her he says, Eh... Jerry turns to his wife Beth and she says, Eh... Like father like daughter. You can drag this kind of thing out for a full season before any return to status quo. Make this happen.

[@darknessblades]

One reason could be that prime is from a timeline where C-137 agreed to join him, but his future self returning to the past making sure to reject prime's proposal, by remotely ruining all attempts at portal travel.

[@The00airknight]

An interesting theory is that if you're hopping between multiple placed at once you'd essentially be teleporting between multiple realities at a rate fast enough where it seems you're standing there. This would create multiple Rick's from one. In addition to truly kill him you'd have to hit him in multiple spots at once. Not saying Rick prime did this but plausible.

[@medinachete73]

Rick Prime has become a quantic macroscopic object, so he can manage event's probability as realities happening in all its percentages at the same time. He need Rick c-137 as he represent somehow the role of the fine structure constant of all Ricks. MHO.

[@josephpowers7155]

Rick has been in an endlessly closed timeloop [i believe since our introduction to him] part of his disdain of time travel is to threaten the very loop that he is in, since it would open up geniune consequence and even termination of his being. he is fine with his immortality, [albeit perhaps an incomplete one] and part of that loop involed him being in the multiverse, and killing his own family so as to push him over the edge- and keep the loop closed. PRIME is the culmination of C-137's genius and having abused time travel as Prime ensured the closed loop with C-137... wh2n Rick inevitably outwits himself [by accident] he will come to terms with it all, travel back in time, and kill his family ensuring continuity of the closed time loop. Prime is happy in part because he figured this version of immortality out and is employing/abusing it to do anything he wants for however long he wants. Thats why hes always happy, as messed up as it may seem... hes granted himself his own version of Godhood, and to turn his back on it would be suicide... and thats why beth and diane have to die- forcing him over the edge to portal tech once more. have a great day

[@steviebueno]

I think Rick Prime's portal gun allowed him to split himself however he sees fit and since he shares the same values of all of them and has the main Portal Gun he allows himself to be everywhere at once, maybe also stole unity's ability to allow himself to be a Rick Prime collective. Scary.

[@sxxmmy]

The thumbnail art 💀💀

[@IGLXenix]

If he cloned himself and all have/can be tracked, it feels familiar to what the Star Gate villain Ball did, he cloned himself and placed trackers in each of them, including himself to hide who the real Ball was. Sounds like a pretty good reference to Star Gate to me if its true, and something Rick Prime would do just to mess with people.

[@pauln07]

I kinda hope c137 tracks rick prime by tracking where rick prime isn't therefore finding the one rick without a tracker

[@neonsolaris]

Just cool that deliberation ( Big Rick and (burp) Morty fan ' Nice

[@sergiovalmendea]

Rick Prime is an older Evil Morty grown up? Nah, couldn't be that. That would mean time travel.

[@KsamneJap]

It's possible that Rick Prime triggered the tragic event, so our Rickest Rick will make the central finite curve, making more Ricks in the process. (I'm talking about ricks that are the greatest entity in their universes) While in the process, he could hide and do his work. Theory.

What ever happened to the Portal Worm? That could be something important for the new season.

If you notice in the background, our rick already has schematics in the background for a portal gun. If Rick Prime arrived and just offered to give him the functioning portal gun, and Rick turned him down because of his pride (nobody is smarter than him, so he should be able to invent it himself) that would probably be enough for Rick and Rick Prime to start their feud.

[@johnjr9997]

Maybe in order for the whole multiverse of ricks to exist Rick prime must set in motion a domino effect where he gives certain ricks pivotal to the multiverse access to he portal gun Therefore Rick c137 is the catalyst that created the council of ricks and the multiverse itself. Ik trippy huh but that's how it works

[@ljnuke371]

someone had a theory about rick prime being a hive mind so that's how he appears in so many places at once, but the clone thing makes a bit more sense

[@Hugllls1971]

Rick prime could assert himself as the superior Rick by showing up and handing over portal tech, wherefore they would forever stuck acknowledging he gave it v. they invented it themselves, which also subverts any reality where they would have also preserving him as they only one who invented it!

[@dxckcg6452]

Rick Prime killed Rick C-137s family because of the fact he knew that our Rick would be the one to ruin him. He showed the portal gun being able to destroy something such as the apple he used and Rick Prime could use that to help with whatever he was doing. When Rick Prime left his universe the one where Morty is stolen from by our Rick he left his family and allowed our Rick to step in. When C-137 declined Rick Primes invitation he killed his family to allow him to always be able to find him because he knew Rick would find portal travel but without a morty he couldn’t be hidden so Rick Prime could always find him to kill him or something else.

[@EzAzAbc]

Since the early 1900s, physicists have postulated that the number 137 could lie at the heart of a grand unified theory, relating theories of electromagnetism, quantum mechanics and, especially, gravity.

[@barneseffect]

Ironic how C-137 would have been the most neutral but after the incident with Prime, ended up being the most dangerous.

[@porter0311]

Im certain that Rick Primes target was NOT C137's Wife and Beth. But C137 himself. Wife and Beth were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

[@Hugllls1971]

The reason why the creators & writer's have so much fun teasing back stories, etc is because the whole premise was created out of thin air through imagination, but the audience treats the story and characters as if they could actually have a back story like their real!

[@nidodson]

This makes me think he was trying to get him to build the citadel.

***Lonny please re-upload your Evil Morty episode*** not sure why you took it down, but I missed it and I love all your videos.

[@1999Fau]

Rick prime is younger than C137, you can tell by the bags under his eyes, he’s definitely time traveling, maybe that’s why he’s in so many places at once(?) idk

[@Doctor_Odin]

Prime Rick, more than likely has a different sub set of conditions for establishing portal travel and the him being everywhere is likely because of the parameters for the search is his specific branch of the reality curves. Basically, Rick prime has a bigger map of the true reality curve, preventing him from being tracked but was likely affected due to his Morty being affected by the portal reset because of them being linked.

[@ismellthecheeze6436]

I found it strange how Rick finally got to kill prime Rick but with the help of evil Morty and how he easily picks him out and let’s Rick deal with him so the feeling of revenge is waisted in Rick feeling empty as he is in the beginning but without a goal

[@christiner6000]

I think my brain is about to explode. 😬

[@PairOfSocksGaming]

i think wats weird is how many clone rick Primes there are but our Rick is having such an issue finding one for most of the series

[@FortuneCookieLies]

The real question that should be on your mind is why does RIck intentionally burn entire universes like kronenburging the first world then mr friendles. I feel like him doing that to those worlds is about masking himself from something.

[@toneohm]

Would be cool to see Prime and Evil Morty team up

[@-Dazwischen]

If Rick hardwires his bot to kill all clones of Rick Prime that would be a good plan and he can go to Rick Prime directly.

[@curtiscole3735]

I think he’s at multiple locations at once like quantum mechanics somewhat like at the beginning of the second season.

[@kingmalik5980]

It would be amazing to see Prime Rick and Evil Morty to team up. Or even better our Rick C-137 manages to get them to turn on each other in a Finale for Season 7.

[@TurboBass]

Rick C137 and Rick Prime are probably both the smartest Ricks out of them all however they are diametrically opposed on the Rick scale. OR maybe they are both the smartest and the only defining difference between them is their love.

[@joshg469]

It's pretty obvious they were talking about portal travel and that that's what the Finite Curve means is it's all the universe that rick had done that to himself in, Evil Morty worked to change that. I think you're right about the C-137 Rick starting the Citadel to find that Prime Rick, But it was Morty Prime who is considered the second chance C-137 Rick has gotten, as his Diane and Beth died. To say that our Rick had been working with Prime is a little out there, because Rick already had the portal tech, it just wasn't panning out. It also goes to show the defining feature of the show and that's that 100 other Characters are doing the same thing at any point of us watching

[@jordenmontgomery7843]

I don't know why, but it took me till now to realize that Rick C137 is the variant that is supposed to be on TV in IRL.

[@jeffreyfarrington5777]

Theory, evil Rick offered something ricks couldn't pass up but a side effect of the recipient is turned into the evil Rick

[@truebluethecat]

The multiple clone idea works. I read a book series (undying mercenaries) where one of the bad guys makes several clones of himself so that it's harder to catch and end his plans. Rick prime could be doing something similar. In fact the tracker may even be a red herring to throw other Rick's off and he himself dosnt have a tracker, after all why do you need to track yourself?

[@dyyler1170]

Prime rick being everywhere is the same as electron having wave characteristics untill observed. Rick prime is everywhere. And not. Like a single electron showing multiple lines on the detection screen instead of one.

[@dyyler1170]

C-137 doesnt say that this image shows where his clones or versions are, he literally says that these are the places where the prime rick IS. Not someone else. He himself is everywhere. Physics 7th grade

[@CalebFawson-yy4ou]

Here's the one thing. If there's multiple rick primes, it's gotta be a hive mind.

[@Jetokuba]

Season 2 episode 1 "A Rickle in Time" explains how rick can be in multiple places at the same time.

[@andreasul2608]

I think there's different "rick primes" like there isn't just 1, but several and they all come from beyond the finite curve and was somehow left behind for whatever reason when the curve was made.

[@Spyy369]

I think Rick C-137 will go after Evil Morty at some point for help, maybe at his desperation peak or something. After all, he was smart enough to break out of the finite curve and plan all that cidadel stuff, he must be literally "built different" if you know what I mean.

[@Spyy369]

If Rick can convince Evil Morty to help him, that would ultimately lead to probably the greatest duo in the multiverse to unite, with both rick c137 and EM's intelligence they would get closer and closer to find rick prime, and maybe that synergy between them would make original morty uncomfortable, leading to some potential disagreement between them, being built along the episodes and erupting towards the season finale... Anyway too much fanfiction to be honest

[@freezalo7521]

Rick Prime is the reason for everything Evil Morty is against. He is everything Morty believes is wrong about Ricks. he'd definitely do something about it if he had that knowledge.

[@johnlenick1460]

Rick Prime is also wearing Hans Solos gunbelt. Now, if we can get a scene with those two. Even if RP just mentions him...

[@retrospectre2658]

"They built a wall around infinity" Thats what Evil Morty says. What do you call it when you build a wall with 6 sides? A box. Housing a micro-infinity. Rick prime isn't liberating the Ricks. He's putting them in a box. Outside the box, maybe he takes all the best inventions for himself. Battle tested robots, stealth gear tested by assassins, immortality shields, cures for every known and unknown disease. You name it, they thought of it. A lot of Ricks die. A lot of garages with a lot of techs left abandoned. Or maybe a lot of techs that backfired. Thomas Edison said it best, "in order to find the one filament that worked, we needed to find the 97 that didn't." All of Rick Prime's tech has been tested and he survived it all. Coincidence? Rick battle each other constantly and have 100 ways to avoid death. Or do they? In one scene C-137 injects his toxic self with a DNA sample that causes a baby to burst out of the Toxic Rick's chest when the first dies. When the first DIES. A clone with all the memories of the original is just a copy. Yet they do this all the time. The memory machine would be another time Rick died on camera and all his memories passed to several new bodies. Those are copies. Not originals. C-137 even describes the way he changed as "The three lines of math that separates my life as a man from my life as an unfeeling ghost." Rick LITERALLY is a ghost of himself. Think about how you would feel on that kind of revenge quest and knowing that the way you've previously "Saved your life" was to make a copy when the original died. You're nothing but a collection of a dead man's memory of being wronged. Even revenge at that point is artificial. Plastic. Actions undertaken due to preprogrammed imprints. Rick died never finding his one-armed man and now you have a head full of bullshit. Or as Rick likes to say, "Nothing matters." Rick Prime needs Rick to have the portal gun for exactly one reason. First day orientation. They're nothing more than a collection of research assistants and Rick Prime takes the best stuff for himself while all the other copies beat around the same box thinking themselves "the smartest man in the universe". A sick joke. A collection of kings bound inside a nutshell. Nothing more. What does Rick Prime do with this? What else? Anything he fucking wants. Untouchable, Immortal, Untraceable, and always with a place to hide. A box. Likely boxES. Where no one can find him, track him, or stop him from conquering or destroying whatever he pleases. A God. The very God Rick curses with his anti-God fixation.

[@mathieubordeleau150]

I'm going to propose an alternative explanation, rather than simple decoys, I think we have more of a Dr. Manhattan situation, where Rick Prime is able to do multiple things and be at multiple places at the same time, yet all copies are indeed him.
