Only one rick was truly afraid of

She’s a really good one here
you mean "annoying"?
@@leonleon2021 lol
This is probably the first time THE Rick Sanchez was given a reality check. And what makes this scene even better was that it wasn’t given by some powerful god or anything of that sort, but by a normal individual; an “agent of averageness” if you will.
This is why Pickle Rick will remain the high-water mark of the series. Many complex storylines will be developed. Myriad characters will be introduced and explored. But in a brief therapy visit, Rick Sanchez will get a gut-check so big that all he can do is walk away from it.
Well said!
So the Therapists speech addresses a few things. 1. First she points out that Ricks inability to connect with his family is well within his control. Him and his family pass it off as some curse that forces him to be like this when in reality he can change that at any moment. However to do so would make Rick vulnerable which he doesn't want to be and so he can't openly accept he causes the problems in his family. 2. She then acknowledges that he is smart, stupidly smart. That because he's so smart he finds mundane things like therapy unbearably boring because it doesn't have thrills he normally experiences on a day to day basis. 3. She then let's him know that the type of maintenance he needs to perform through therapy will never be exciting for him. That therapy is work and effort but not the type of excitement he wants to have.
@@blong217 wow 👏 Bravo! A++++
i see you did not understand the last cameo of Jaguar. many don’t. its really easy to look at someone and tell them whats wrong with them. many people do it when theyre angry at someone which makes it even more funny.
The fact that Rick let her finish her speech and didn’t contradict her to her face says that he heard at least something in what the therapist said that he knew was true.
sounds like something cartman's nanny would say before a hard cut to her eat from toilet
He may not admit it outwardly, but he genuinely values Wong after she shakes him down here. Like you say he doesn't offer any rebuttal because he knows she's right, he doesn't prevent his family returning to her after this, and even goes to her for her council in more recent episodes
@@branominal8564The fact that he even starts to go see her by HIMSELF is a huge character development in Rick. I mean can you imagine season 1 or 2 Rick willingly going to a therapist for personal improvement? There’s almost no living humans Rick sees as worthy of his one on one time so a therapist being one is a huge positive change
@@maclain728 great words, hard to imagine any other arrogant and powerful rick doing the same
He's just pissed because he needs the serum.
Rick really got saved by the bell on this one cause you know he didn’t have a good response to that absolute take down
Take it easy it’s just a drawling.
i think they both made valid points, and thats the whole point of the show. deconstructing nihilism and embracing the absurd.
@@draco9513 what
@@toast3374 a drawling
Yes, and also no, the therapist didnt mean to take Rick down, she gave him snd the whole family an option. An Alternative to the toxic state they are in. If the session wasnt over she should have let him get out of this Situation in another way.
Susan Sarandon was the perfect voice for this. Able to have empathy and gravitas while maintaining an even tone.
100%
Omg so true
have you ear the french version ? I think she is good to, maybe a little better ;)
Not to mention a bit low-key funny
One of the few times Rick was truly defeated.
that's not true they both made valid points. thats the real take away from this whole scene, and really what the thematic under current of the show is about but you completely missed it.
Agreed, it was well done
not the slightest defeated. she had 0 points due to lack of ability to actually grasp the situation that is going on. she is to dumb to ever be able to grasp it. just like our own human brains can't even grasp the reality of our own space without thinking about aliens or multi universes.
@@nepntzerZer i disagree, i think ricks point doesn’t stand after the argument of the psychologist.
This wasn’t a defeat because she wasn’t fighting him. This fight is with himself. All the therapist did was help Rick to see that the internal war isn’t as hopeless or grandiose as he tells himself it is.
Ricks first L in an episode full of effortless W’s giving the true feeling of Rick being humbled. Incredible writing what a visionary
I think the first L was when he lost the serum lol
He lost to morty...
why shorten just two words? do you know how much time you have uselessly wasted writing all those words? here is your comment fully zipped: R 1 L i a e f o e W's g t t f o R b h. I w w a v
Awful writing, the writer literally wrote herself into the show to talk down the main character.
@@corbonthec0b literally was she wrong though?????
The fact that Rick continues to see Dr. Wong after this speaks volumes. She sees right through his nihilistic facade and offers her insight in trying to understand him. No one else has attempted that; she not only achieved to placate Rick’s place in his wild antics, but she also showed warmth towards him in a constructive way that helps him overcome his own self-hatred. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have saved her during Tammy’s ambush.
I feel like the therapist is saying that Rick could have just said No to coming to family therapy, yet he chose to lie and turn himself into a pickle. Forcing himself into a dangerous situation for his "need for adventure." Yes therapy would be boring to him but like the therapist said "It's just work... some people are fine with going to work everyday and some people would rather die." Rick didn't say no to coming to therapy because he doesn't want to die, he lied because he was afraid to admit to his family that he isn't thrilled in sustaining or maintaining a relationship with them.
God that's so me. I don't quite knwo what to do. Seems like both options are terrible, al thought work is a little better. There surely must be another way
@@greengame9713 You could project your attention at a netflix binge or video games then devolve into a depression spiral, and blame the world for your own problems and perspective because working on yourself is harder than clicking next on a show you dont really like but have to watch as the alternative is facing yourself. Zombie your way through life it's perfectly fine. Cmon everyone does it.
@@snizkorod If something is common that doesn't mean it's fine but I got your point
@@snizkorod 😂
Thx cuz ik it was more too it den this💙🫂
Wow first time in a long time is when Rick felt like the dumbest person in the room because even he can’t argue with the facts presented to him. You could tell he felt defeated because he couldn’t come up with some Rick level retort towards her
I don't understand. Can you explain Rick's uncomfortable truth? Just finished this episode on Hulu and was left comfused
@@guardianvalor962 I have difficulty grasping it in my own words, but I think it canbe best explained that Rick, despite all his power, is unhappy. This unhappiness isn't caused by being intelligent, but rather because of bad habits, toxic toxic thinking processes, etc. A happy person can be both intelligent and happy, but Rick views happy people as lower than him. This superiority complex doesn't help with feeling loved either; after all, you think you're above everyone & no one relates to you. There's probably more to this, but that's the best explanation I can give.
@@guardianvalor962 Rick is the smartest person in the room and with his tech the most powerful person on the planet in the universe and maybe in the multiverse. But here he is covered by blood and vomit as a pickle in the place he was trying to avoid the whole episode. Further she told him why that was. Because it’s work and Rick can’t stand that. He can’t do boring day to day mantince of life. And because of that he’s left unhappy despite all his power
@@claytondavis6835 Nicely said. Maybe its also related to Rick not wanting to do "average" things. He forces himself, and everyone around him, to do exciting things because he is afraid if he doesn't... then he himself is average. As an old man he is feeling his mortality and an average person will be forgotten by history. Dust, forgotten within a generation or two. He avoids or misses the fundamental truth of life, which some say is to create happiness through connection to other people and improving the world around you, and find meaning in this happiness. So Rick struggles to find purpose but will never find it this way, and therefore he hates his life, and everyone elses too.
@@vtancredi1717 The crazy part is, before Rick went into his life-changing hunt for Rick Prime, he chose for himself to do menial tasks like getting ice cream with Diane and little Beth. Ice cream... over the iconic portal gun he uses every season. While Rick Prime wanted the "infinite Rick, a god." Rick C-137 is in absolute conflict with his true nature, by acting like the thing he rejected and used to call himself different from.
"Intelligent people can be and often are happy. It's just that miserable people always think happy people must be less intelligent than they are."
Woah, where'd you get that quote from??
So, I have something that I call forbidden knowledge, its where the usefulness of the information you possess costs more than it is worth. Where just by knowing something to be 100% true, makes you slightly more miserable or unhappy knowing it yet has little if any benefit at all to you.
Except that intelligence is statistically correlated with depression and it makes sense. The capacity for understanding gives a person more options in terms of worldview. It’s just statistics. However, “misery” in this context can have a different nuance, so the speaker may be referring to something else here.
A pretty clear example of this is how people view optimism and cynicism. People automatically think optimistic is childish, it's naive and stupid positivity but cynicism is real, it's what's life is actually life and people who believe in it are smarter because they aren't bold back and binded by childish thoughts of goodness and altruism, they're a special breed of wise and Woke to the world. Of course the thing is that instead they're just blinded by nihilism and mistrust and when it comes to depression, human beings as a whole are irredeemable and selfish beings because that's what people subconsciously believe about themselves, that deep down they're irredeemable and selfish and unworthy for whatever reason.
@@richyhu2042 I’ve never found optimism childish. Its just not my cup of tea. There is a quote i read somewhere that perfectly encapsulates my belief. “Optimists believe this is the best possible world, pessimists fear that this is the case”
"...and if you have any friends and family that eat poop and would like to stop, give them my number." I love how they didn't forget to end the scene on a funny note.
It would be perfect for Doofus Rick.

Least intelligent Rick and Morty fan
@No boi no, because it’s a call back to that cringe Reddit post about high iq rick and morty fans that showed up after that kid pulled a pink guy in a public McDonald’s over Szechuan sauce.
Everyone talking about how Rick was defeated here. He might take it that way because any conversation is a fight with Rick, but it's not a psychologist's job to epically own her patients. She was trying to help. Unfortunately to Rick and perhaps to some people here judging by the comments, accepting help is tantamount to accepting defeat. Rick is his own worst enemy.
What is the motivation for you to write this? You seem to compare your understanding to some misunderstandings. Do you think you may be self assuring by making this comment? Do you feel you need to defeat others assumptions? Do you feel insecure? Is therapy really helping you?
You guys gotta chill
@@turboturtle8977 huh? Why are you so defensive over a comment that is very non offensive?

@@turboturtle8977 lmao wtf is this
The "your own mind literally vegetated by your own hand" is what nails it to Rick, he got put in place
I mean,it’s true.He turned himself into a pickle
The writers either truly knew what they were doing or the stars aligned just right this episode. Throughout the screentime Rick showed how he was an unstoppable force despite his condition through sheer wit, but faces defeat in the finale however through someone who got into his head.
They def knew what they were doing. Harmond’s views of therapy have evolved over time. Going from viewing it as Rick did when he was younger (as seen in some community episodes) to having experienced it’s healing nature as he mentioned on his podcast. To s combination of this and the history channel shorts he did where he made a very well done case defend Freud of all people. It’s actually really cool to see. He went from as he put it “the #1 critic to thw #1 defender of it”
@Frogger pleas explain to me how that makes anything I said not true? There’s no reason then starting with the pickle premise doesn’t mean Harmon wouldn’t implant stuff he’s experienced with therapy.
@Frogger I’m so confused by what your point is here. Like yes stories start with basic ideas and then get flushed out. In that same interview Harmon talks about the therapy angle being added to tie in the central divorce theme. And then used his experience with therapy as a base for how to wrap around. That’s how stories are written. I meant they knew what they were doing with how they framed and constructed the story with the therapy angle
@Frogger Did anyone say the therapy conversation was planned early or first? Lol
@Frogger Neither I or the of poster said that…
She really captures the undeniable, and not anything complex. Despite Rick's impressive intelligence, he uses it as an excuse for self-destructive behavior and to evade personal responsibility. His constant pursuit of reckless adventures is a means to avoid mundane yet essential tasks, like self-care and emotional healing. Ultimately, everyone--even someone as brilliant and capable as Rick--is responsible for their actions and their consequences.
This is where Rick is truly defeated, an Intellectual genius could never win over an Emotional Genius, its just every genuis' kryptonite I guess
Rock paper scissors i guess The body defeats the soul The mind defeats the body And the soul defeats the mind The people that Rick fight are the body, he is the mind and those around him who live, experience and understand the human condition, just like the therapist, are the soul
@@Sapphire-Lily how does the body defeat the soul?
@@Triczterztricz...I mean the therapist would lose in a fight But actually, its because the body can't listen, it can't understand Every person had a different balance of mind, body and soul, and what you lead with is usually what defines you
@@Sapphire-Lily nah I get what you’re saying, it’s just fundamentally flawed in the order you chose.
@@PayAttentionToThePatterns Yeah, guess I could've phrased it better
The thing about repairing, cleaning, maintaining is it is not adventure. It is just work. Some people like to work, and some people might rather want to die, it's their choice...
I use this logic to justify brushing my teeth, which is a victory over the universe
"use intelligence to justify sickness" This right here is the ultimate reality check.
The therapist actually got Rick to shut up, meaning she was kind of in the right.
She's completely right. Not kind of
Ewwwwwww what is that pfp wtf
If I'd had Rock's ability I would have taken her dna, cloned her, tossed her into dangerous situations and tell her to therapize her way out of it. After a few deaths and resurrections (Phoenix chambers) I'm sure her mind would be changed. You do no mess with a mad god.
@@The1980Philip sounds like you also need therapy
@@Damascusdalek No, I'm just a stickler for suspension of disbelief. Rick has shown himself perfectly willing to end people's lives for far more trivial reasons. Not tormenting the therapist was out of character.
One thing that interested me was that Rick could most certainly be petty and say something back just to belittle this "agent of averageness", yet he takes it. I'm sure he could use all his intelligence to form a counterargument, yet he just sits there and takes it, more than likely because he knows it's true and doesn't have to heart to refute what he has always known when it has been so explicitly shown to him.
I like to think he didn’t have a comeback. He had no counter argument to refute what she said. He had nothing witty or clever to counter what the therapist said because he knows she’s right. No matter what he says.
From season one, Rick is aware of a lot of his faults. In what he thought was his dying moment he even tells Morty "don't be like me". But a version of Rick also killed his wife - he knows that part of him did that - so he is self abusive. And self abusive people also lash out at the world.
i mean how do you refute something that you know is true?
Rick- Feelings don’t matter Psychologist- Feelings are a choice, thats why you are miserable.
Therapy is a real pickle.
Haha.
Get out!
Said this to a therapist... she said "you are not a pickle and you are not rick". I said touché and we moved on, never had someone call checkmate on the first move like that before
She's got in your head.
This is one of the best scenes in the entire show. Thank you for posting
This scene helped me overcome my bad habit of doing laundry at the last minute when I needed clean clothes for work.
I still have that habit lol
Oh thank god so it wasn’t only me...
2:29 Rick's silence worth thousand words.
Susan voice made this therapist more cool than she should be 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Deep down Rick was forced to admit defeat. Having been outsmarted not by some primordial being or an unknown entity,but by a simple "agent of averageness" with her wise words.
There is a reason a lot of the fans hated the doctor: because she called out all of them out
It’s because she called them out that they hate her.
I like how she is not surprised about this, a professional
Also an alien apparently XD
Dr. Wong is incredible. More people need a Dr. Wong in their life.
The therapist did what was at her approach: plant the seed of doubt. A patient cannot be helped if they don't want to so it's really up to rick from now on
Honestly, his family's reaction to seeing rat-armored Pickle Rick enter the room with a groan being bland makes it funnier because this is just normal.
I like how the show doesn't belittle the therapist and kind of advocate that there is no shame in confronting mental health
This made me clean my room, eat better and start waking up early to have proper selfcare. I now understand why I'm not motivated yet at the same time why it is important for me to do those things. I feel like a slave in life, I dont want to do predictable things or repeat a rutine. But I have a body and a environment to keep clean and healthy. And thats a chore I can't avoid if I want to live happily.
I hate it with a passion. Being human sucks.
“You are the Master of your Universe” Quite Literally considering he made it so that he was the Smartest person in the Universe and separated the other infinite universes from his. Hearing that line again after now watching the finale of Season 5 hits so much differently now.
Yet he actively chooses to not get help and justify his sickness with "intelligence"
I love the small touch that Rick doesn't try to argue with her because a major part of his character is accepting the ugly truths other people ignore because it is scary or hurtful. He can't deny she's right honestly and rather than fruitlessly argue with her just because he's in pain from what she said he just has to sit there and take it until he gets out of the situation and can mock her later for things other than what she said.
Rick may be the smartest man in the universe...but that doesn't mean people like Dr. Wong are stupid. Not even a little bit.
Intelligence and wisdom can overlap but they aren't always the same.
that bih just saw a pickle with a rat arms and legs, and start complaining about feelings, she is indeed dogshit and stupid, how many human can turn their self to pickle?, dr wong is just basically a fish in a aquarium, there's an ocean out there but dr wong wouldn't even understand that, morty is smarter than dr wong
In an absolute sense and in specific instances, that's true. But relatively speaking, it's true. For them, others are far slower. But smart people do have holes in their perception and personal blind spots.
Yes, Rick is smart in natural intelligence (and harsh reality), but when it comes to having a shred of empathy, almost anyone could beat him.
Yes
I love how so many commenters here are supremely offended when someone insinuates that the therapist beat Rick. They like to project themselves on Rick and live vicariously through him because they see him as an unstoppable god who does whatever he wants, and the mere implication that he (or they) could be taken down a peg - by just a therapist, no less - is a horrifying thought.
The idea that the therapist beat Rick is more of an offense to therapy than it is to Rick fans.
Wong is so insightful that Rick actually values her. Not only does he not even offer a rebuttal after she verbally shakes him down, he continues to let his family go to her for therapy, and even goes to her himself in more recent episodes
I like that the Therapist tells Rick that you don't have to like therapy to know that you need to do it for your health. She points out that you don't wipe your butt or brush your teeth because you enjoy it, you do it as personal maintenance and this Therapy is no different for someone like Rick. (At the time I watched it, I was actually impressed with that speech. Everyone always acted like the second you came out of a session, you should be dancing on clouds afterwards and the work you did at the session should be permanent. It's not. It's hard, gradual work and it's as dull as personal maintenance. Wish I knew this before I went in with lofty expectations.)
"You are the master in your own universe" man that foreshadowing though!
Academic Intelligence vs Emotional Intelligence
Favourite monologue in the show. Just look at rick still trying his hardest to look bored and above this at the end. Such a scared fraud
I haven't seen Rick and Morty since this season, but I still like to think that he secretly sees her.
He literally left her to die in a fire inside that same building
As much as i would love this to be true, Rick is just too stubborn to do things he doesn’t want.
Susan Sarandon is coming back this season, so we will see.
😅 That would explain why he didn't tear her up with his rat legs.
This is the best scene in the show. It reveals that the writers understand the unhealthy BS that Rick within the show tries to pitch. It undercuts the mean super genius trope that exists in so many spaces right now. Amazing.
The big takeaway: If you're that good you can do what you want to do....but you still have to do what you need to do.
In the new season he goes to therapy and likes going. My heart.
rick demolished a whole building of gangs with guns while in pickle form, but is also crushed by an average therapist.
this is one of the reasons I love the show, the writing is extremely amazing, truly wonderful
writing WAS amazing
The writers try so, so hard to tell the Rick fanboys that Rick is a terrible role model lmao
"Master of your own universe". Hot damn that hits different now.
Central Finite Curve
That therapist needs a raise.
The fact that she actually OWNS rick XD
Did you know that the therapist is voiced by Susan Sarandon. forces her to see the pickle-shaped monster at the center of all her family's problems. The greatest achievement of "Pickle Rick" is how it takes Freudian symbolism out of the figurative and into the lite
Freudian isn’t it
small detail no one has seemed to mention so far… rick in his rant goes on about how he doesn’t need the state of mind and dependency upon which therapy provides because he believes he’s better than everyone else. Then the doctor immediately starts referring to rick as an equal to the rest of society showing him that he’s no different from everyone else.
After all this time this is still one of my favorite Rick and Morty moments
I like that he still sees her.
The look on his face at the end is priceless.
The thumbnail is pretty hilarious without context
I watch this scene every so often whenever I don’t feel like continuing my therapy. Such a good message.
A pickle with open flesh limbs walks into her office: *acts like its perfectly normal*; "You must be Rick".
Rick, for all of his intelligence, is weak against only one thing Someone who is wiser than him
I like how he just stares at her at the end. >:I
the fact that the Therapist actually managed to figure out Rick in less then a minute
This is an example of a difference between intelligence and wisdom
people say this was spoon feeding to rick, and yeah yeah it was and that's good, because people in the real world need to hear this too, it's useful information
That is the most Therapist I have ever heard.
I love how she …or rather Rick…returns to her later needing her help. He needs her help later and she is able to give it and get respect from Rick.
Couldn't change the fact that his wife and daughter died tho
Everyone is saying the Therapist "beat" Rick. One, you don't understand therapy. Clearly. You should get some therapy, you probably need it more than I do at this point. Two, they met as equals. He challenged her, she respected him as she met his level. She continued to respect Rick through the entire speech, gave him solid advice, as well as an amazing part to continue moving forward as a.... well decent human being isn't going to EVER describe Rick but you get the point. You can see it in later episodes when Rick stops accusing people as often, starts to take blame without throwing it on someone else, and tries to understand Morty and everyone else more. He respected her by not being Rick, you know just over-talking and then INVENTION. You can even hear it with "When I am HEARING is" instead of Rick saying "Now what stupid thing you said was..." in later seasons. Nobody beat anyone. Rick was given a great solution to a lot of his problems and was told that he was capable of changing them, because he is. So are you.
Underrated comment.
I love how the therapist managed to keep her composure
She see people like rick all day, every day.
They deal with complete psychos on a daily basis
"You must be Rick!" Just perfect.
Thos therapist is literally my favorite side character. Calls everyone out every single time
It's interesting to rewatch this scene over the years to see what things your new mind focuses on to get new, fresh interpretations. Mine this time was "you'd rather die than do the work to get things done" Last one was: "You can't quite accept that your control and power got you here, to belittle me while doing the very thing you swore to avoid" And the first one was: "Haha, i should give her number to X. They actually did some SCAT last year"
This is a nice comment
Coming back to this almost seven years later. I finally understand everything she said.
I really live that even with the immense insight the therapist might give Rick, she still have a timer to when the session ends lmao
The power of averageness reducing Rick Sanchez to helpless silence.
This was so deep and simultaneously hilarious I rewatched this scene so many times. Brilliantly done.
Rick was Not defeated he was helped, and in later episodes he does change for the better. therapy is not.. me versus you win or lose it's about helping each other mentally and possibly getting a breakthrough.
I loved Doctor Wong after when she said this during the session! And she is right, people DO need to maintain and repair their mind and mental health. We ALL do, even a person with genius level intellect like Rick, every living person. It's how we improve in our day to day lives and find meaning, satisfaction and comfort in life...
"I'm not a cow, I'm a pickle. When I feel like it."
Yo that was such a good scene! Props to the script writers.
Dr. Wong was a total savage to Rick. XD
There is this thing that Rick and Morty does where once or twice a season they hit you with some of the most profound writing you’ll ever see in a cartoon
When high EQ beats high IQ
Do you believe EQ is distributed in the same way as IQ?
@@davidnorman4612 I have no idea
You can’t blame Rick though. If he looses his edge, he’ll fall short and probably die.
rick was like "this is the world I wanna live in" therapist was like: "well this is in fact the world we live in unfortunately for you and I both"
The therapist has the most well thought out dialogue
“I’m not a cow, I’m a PICKLE.” -Rick Sanchez
Pickle Rick! Rick Sanchez is a reality stone.
'The thing about repairing, maintaining, and cleaning is, it's not an adventure. There's no way to do it so wrong you might die. It's just work. And the bottom line is some people are OK going to work and some people would rather die. Each of us gets to choose.' Yup, that's pretty much life in a nutshell for most of us. For me it's a tough call, but I'm still going, so work is better than death? I'm really unsure though.
One of the best scenes in the whole series on my life
You know what I find to be the best and funniest thing? She didn't freak out and run away when Pickle Rick walked in. Any normal person or any bad therapist would just consider their story to be made up or a metaphor and not take them seriously. But what I like best about her is that she's so good at her job that she was completely open minded to the possibilities that what they were saying could be either 100% true or 100% false. Or 50/50. And it turned out to be true, and she had prepared herself for that, so she didn't freak out and got straight to business again.
she's probably used to the stories of Rick Sanchez by this point lol
"Each of us gets to choose."
called out by the therapist sounds pretty accurate lol (in a good way)
"Some people are ok going to work and some would rather die" I feel that
This is one of the best dialgoues from a therapist, that I've seen in a show. And it's being given to a genius whos stuck in the body of a pickle enhanced with rodent limbs.
