Discussion Points:

* Reddit Discussion

* This episode had a wide variety of memorable one-off characters. Who is your favorite incidental character in this episode & why?

* In season 1 we see Morty struggle with depression as a result of the serious consequences that come about from his adventures, but up until now Rick has done a good job of masking his pain with alcohol. This episode is the first that addresses Rick’s depression that is so heavily featured throughout the rest of the show. How does depression/trauma factor into Rick’s actions? Do you think Rick can ever fully overcome his apathy?

* How has Morty grown from his stuttering beginnings to the season finale?

* Other THOUGHTS!

* Not originally intended as a finale (from the commentary)

* The show started with the idea for those monsters
