The Complete RICK AND MORTY Timeline (Seasons 1-6)

[@barneseffect]

My head canon is Rick C-137 crashed into Prime Beth's house in a fit of drunken rage, intent on killing Prime's family. But when he saw Beth, couldn't bring himself to do it, realizing on a certain level they're both victims of Rick Prime. He didn't intend on staying but found himself going back often.

[@jonnyb.animationstutorials7119]

Maybe he was going to kill them, but then decided he could stay instead, and wait for Rick Prime to return, and when he didn't, during Rick Potion #9, Rick C-137 decided to just abandon the prime universe, realizing Rick Prime was never going back.

[@Raddish-IS-Radd]

My head canon is that the writers hadn't thought of that yet.

[@jonnyb.animationstutorials7119]

@@Raddish-IS-Radd We know that, but we have to put the story together. It's easy to just say "Oh, the writers hadn't thought of that yet." but it's nice to use everything available and put together the story.

[@equatiks97]

it literally says in the show and in clips in this video that rick showed up looking for rick and stayed hoping that hed show up, he would have no reason to kill prime ricks family because theyve done nothing and its long after any immediate rage defused, he already stopped killing ricks why would he kill a beth and morty

It's pretty straightforward, I think this video complicated things and jumps around the timeline a lot so I get why it can be confusing, but I'm sure it can be better explained!

[@doggking001]

Dude this explanation was even more confusing than the show!! 😂

[@remjo]

RIGHT??? I know the full timeline but this was unnecessarily confusing with random details

[@DogInATaco]

I thought the Evil Morty storyline was absolutely bonkers and I can't wait to see where they're gonna take him. Revealing that the entire show and all of it's occupants are trapped in a carefully constructed reality where the only universe they exist in are ones where Rick is the smartest is such an insane idea. I can only imagine what universes where he isn't the smartest look like. Will we see a new "smartest man in the universe" where Morty goes?

[@MagiconIce]

I think Evil Morty is a Morty, who got way more intelligence than the "Prime Morty" that we know, hence he is such a brilliant schemer. He probably got way more genetic intelligence from Rick via Beth. So since he left the finite curve and probably became the smartes being in one of the outside-curve-universes, I think it is possible that he will return to fight and kill Rick for good. Though it would be interesting to know Evil Morty's Origin Story.

[@DogInATaco]

@@MagiconIce So now that Morty has left the finite curve, you think HE is the smartest man in all of those other universes? That would be an even crazier premise. EVERY universe where Rick isn't the smartest, Morty is.

[@Laurie-eg8ct]

It's too boring being the smartest one in your own universe. I would rather go to the real world where I'm not the smartest.

[@robery4008]

The dinosaurs are smarter than rick

[@tdward23]

​@DogInATaco I just had the same thought from 2 weeks in the future! Everything is possible, right? So the answer has to be no. Rick seemingly "lassoed" a portion of infinity. [The set that I am smartest]. A FINITE SET That leaves evil morty amongst the mathematically insignificant. THE SET OF INFINTY. .....chuckle Anyway, evil morty might just want to live his life where there are no smartest ricks. I'm OK if we never see him again. He won

[@tbnprathades1631]

Imagine Rick created the central finite because he wanted to make sure that every universe he went to is a universe where Rick is the smartest since Rick prime is the smartest person in his universe. Which means that he forced Rick prime to get stuck within the central finite but when Rick prime tried to escape he got stuck which is why Rick wasn't able to find him all this time

[@EdinoRemerido]

Central finite courve just divides infinity universes from a another number of infinite universes where someone else is the smartest person in the universe, so statistically speaking chances are someone else created the central finite or it was already there at the start of everything

[@Eric-lw8te]

​@@EdinoRemerido, true, or the central finite curve is simply an adjective or theory inferred and implied by all the Ricks. Possibly. Ha! I loved this show up until season 7...

[@matthewboire6843]

Another theory I heard is that the curve was made by C-137 to make sure that Rick prime can’t escape him.

lowkey sometimes jerry is a good dad, bro just wants to spend time w his kids but doesnt know how

[@FoolsGil]

One thing i disagree with is that C-137 made froopyland before creating portal tech. His version of Beth didn't get a chance to be a neighborhood menace, while the other Rick's in the multiverse, namely Prime, did have to make Froopyland after creating or gaining portal tech

[@TheSweatDivision]

Y'know you have a point his/c137's beth ceased to well live so he couldn't have made froopy land for her thats actually pretty big brain thinking my guy

[@verminlordwarbringer2894]

Well seeing that Rick C-137 has already been through several timelines/dimensions with other versions of his family maybe he just takes credit for froopyland in that universe cause he's seen it before

[@TheSweatDivision]

@@verminlordwarbringer2894 its the only way it would makes since

[@commandershepard2490]

There are only TWO Ricks who really invented Portal Travel. Rick Prime and "Our" Rick. All the other Ricks are multiversions of the Rick AFTER this Event. This is something that leads to so much confusion but makes sense if you think about it.

One of the reasons I love this show is the same reason the Flashgitz anti-furry crusade series is amazing: it goes from a funny animation that’s intended to be a shitpost turning into a deep, depressing, funny, lore filled world. Unlike Flashgitz, the world becomes 40 times more deep and complicated.

You understand the timeline much better than any other youtuber i've seen BUT In the vat of acid episode we learn that everythig that happen really happend and wasn't undone wich means that rick acutally killed cronenberg morty wehn he showed him the save/load device

There’s no way Rick C-137 wasn’t trying to cronenberg the prime dimension.

[@mantistobogganm.d.6895]

Agreed. “Ooopen your Miiind”

[@JGCoolfella]

How they deal with switching realities though, especially the recent parmesan one suggests that almost everything can be identical to the reality they left. This makes me wonder if switching from the squirrel dimension led to a new dimension where that rick and Morty also accidentally swapped Jerrys.

Perfect video to refresh the mind before the new season.

[@MagiconIce]

Well technically, the original dimension, where "our" Morty is from, is the Prime Dimension, since his grandfather from his dimension is called "Prime Rick" and killed the family of the Rick we know for whatever reason. So our Protagonist Rick is probably really Rick C-137 and from the dimension of that designation, but Morty is definitely not really Morty C-137, Morty C-137 for that matter never existed. The dimension they switch too after turning Prime Earth into Cronenberg Earth is unknown, but apparently bonding with Bird Person and other Freedom Fighters/Rebels/Terrorists (The Ricks on the Citadel called themselves like that) is somewhat of a constant across some of the universes. Morty just calls himself "Morty C-137" since he doesn't know better at the time. PS: I totally forgot about Rick switching Bodies on several occassions, either against Toxic Rick or when he breaks out of federal prison. So basically, only the mind of Rick C-137 is alive, his body is definitely not from dimension C-137.

[@aleksa44]

pretty sure the body part isnt that important, its basically the question: If a ship gets repaired to the point where every single part of it has been replaced, is it a new ship? In rick's case, yes, obviously because his mind doesnt change, but for him its a daily thing to switch bodies: Project Phoenix, Disintegrating like Obi Wan, Toxified body etc.

The rick from mortys universe is Rick prime not evil Rick Just felt like clarifying that but it was a good vid

[@bumpinator]

tiny planet was better than corn planet because everything was on the cob on corn planet... everything

[@DanielGutsch]

At 23:46 the reason why they needed to get out of there is Because on the corner of the cob plan everything was made out of corn on the cob including the atoms so the longer you stay there the more over your atoms become corn on the cob atoms and then you will eventually become corn on the cub which I think Rick realized and wanted to get out of there because that's not good
