[@XegnoPlays]

Fun fact about that rough-housing scene between Rick and simulation Morty. I heard it was a leading theory that Rick did that as a test to see if it was the real Morty or not, because Morty wouldn't typically play along with the horse play. Sure, it was a funny scene, but it seems to have had some purpose in the plot.

[@cloudy772]

Xegno Plays I’m a bit late but rick knew from the very beginning. Listen to the stuff he is saying and his tone of voice.

[@annettemcgreevy1258]

@mc finn morty probably would've done that anyway

[@mastershooter64]

what is horse play?

[@NoPowerintheVerse]

I remember thinking it was weird Jerry’s tux didn’t disappear when the simulation ended.

[@IKnowThisSoundsGayBut]

Me, too!

[@billbill6094]

Don't forget Morty's CPU's. Morty was programmed to stay through all 3 simulations, so everything he was holding stayed too. Even though the CPU's should've disappeared after the second simulation disappeared.

[@aidorygregan3849]

If you pay attention to what Rick said was in the “concentrated dark matter”, if you know enough chemistry then you can already tell that he instructed Morty to mix an explosion.

[@LJMiho]

Yeah, I know my chemistry well enough and as soon as I heard him tell Morty to mix Caesium with water (nevermind the silly Plutonic Quarks in the mix, it would make no difference) I was like: "Nuh-uh, you really don't want to do that!" The aliens were so dumb that they didn't even know that you should never mix alkaline metals with water. But kudos to Rick though, that sly genius, I understood what he was going for from the get-go.

[@SorchaSublime]

@@LJMiho i assume the plutonic quarks were meant to make the explosion bigger?

[@LJMiho]

@@SorchaSublime I think it's safe to assume that, yes, that must have been the writers excuse for an explosion *THAT* big. The mix of Caesim and water does make quite an explosion, but not something big enough to take out a space station/craft as big as they portrayed during the episode, unless that station/ship was also made out of some other highly explosive materials. xD But whatever _"Plutonic Quarks"_ is supposed to be, it still is an entirely fictional thing, of course, something made up for the show.

LOL every time they say stuff like "This is just a fun show" and "The episodes probably don't connect" it always makes me laugh because I can't wait for them to react to the show when shit gets real

[@WernerEdgar]

Love that you guys are touching upon the philosophy of the episodes now (simulation argument), there's a lot more in this show. There's an overarching one you'll see shortly (or already have) - hint: Albert Camus. Also - very cool posts prod / editing with the Sims thing by Alan Wong. Thanks for making better and better content every time guys.

[@MrUndersolo]

Werner van Alphen Camus? Really?

[@getonwithit6539]

Perfect timing with all the New season stuff happening the reactions should just flow right into season 3 no problem. Also they were Zigerian scammer a play on words for the classic Nigerian Prince email scams

[@TheMimo2001]

Kris Waite that's what I thought I heard at first, and I didn't realize that the first time watching it

[@SuzakuX]

What's especially fun is that they didn't even change the first letter, they just rotated it 90 degree.

[@robertwinslade3104]

I can't believe I never noticed that wordplay.

[@TheMimo2001]

Nutricula dude, support them and pay for Patreon. why did it cancel in the first place?

[@Tofuey]

Kris Waite No shit

[@marcw6875]

I love that Aaron went straight to marker sniffing rather than nose hair trimming. lol!

[@judemiller]

I hear the crew just fine, but the show's audio is kinda low. I have trouble hearing what Rick and Morty are saying.

[@SirChesterBellington]

Jude Miller cool info bro good input

[@AWPWN1]

I had to disable the show audio because the videos kept getting detected and blocked. So the audio you're hearing is the sound that is coming from their speakers. I tried shortening the amount of show footage in the reaction, but it kept getting detected and blocked. This appears to be the only way around that issue. I hope you continue watching their reactions.

[@haileyfinlayson3455]

Well maybe because you're supposed to be listening into their reactions and discussion, hence the "reaction video"

[@obi8061]

Jordanious77 I get you, but it’s nice to know what they’re “reacting” to.

[@Mozzylver1]

One of my season 1 favorites! Great reaction, as always... Love all the analysis you guys put into these!

[@jokybones]

I love watching these Reactions its like i watch the Series with someone :D

[@zkvhxp4048]

fun thing is Cesium really explode when it comes into contact with water.

[@billbill6094]

There's clues in each simulation that tells Rick that he's in a simulation. Those simulated CPU's not disappearing when the second simulation "failed" for example, it tells Rick that it was still a simulation.

[@3DJapan]

12:08 LOD is Level of Detail. Each model and texture could be made with 3 or 4 different versions that could be swapped out depending on the distance from the camera.

[@Merilirem]

"just let it happen" lol. Patrons must be super happy right now.

[@QueenMabx]

hey y'all! just loving watching these reaction videos... i LOVE Rick and Morty and watching y'all laugh at them is so enjoyable :) the show gets really deep later too... I found you guys when i came across Eric and Calvin watching GoT from the beginning. i loved that too!!! love hearing the discussion afterward, Eric you make a lot of great observations and Calvin you do the freakin best impressions of the characters' voices LOL... like Davos, Robert Baratheon, Morty, etc... always cracks me up!!! and of course i'm keeping up with the latest GoT reactions... just love y'all, good work!

this is probably my favorite episode because it makes me question everything even more

[@quick2bud]

When you are high, theres like 30 LOL moments every episode.

[@zeallust8542]

Yeah stuff far away in games is called LOD or "Level Of Detail" and theyre the objects that get more or less detailed the closer you get. A lot of the time LOD artists actually make lower detail versions of areas at varying detail levels. Some games do it automatically but that ends up with things looking... Weird. Lot of work goes into LOD, its worth appreciation. Its the reason you can look at Bleak Falls Barrow from the city and it doesnt look dumb. Those artists.

[@GrouchyOldBear7]

Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.

I remember the day after this episode aired I wanted to recap the show with my dude. He said he saw the episode but wasn't sharing any details. I told him he didn't see the episode then flipped his sht. 5 minutes late a girl walked in only saying "my man" till the end of class. My dude was "what the fk is wrong with her" me"I FKING KNOW IT YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE EPISODE!!!"

[@MokuTheMagi]

I follow background characters around in games all the time. In a bigger simulation I could see that being reality, I just hope it's not a game or we're all one "chosen one" away from going down like Metropolis in Man of Steel.

The episodes do connect like any non-cartoon tv show. They don't make it obvious, but it's an ongoing story. Definitely not something like Spongebob or Family Guy or other cartoons where each episode makes it seem like the last episode didn't happen and all problems they had and everything they did is magically erased and solved the next episode.
