One of the most evocative moments in all of Rick and Morty deals with the very serious subject of substance abuse and its relationship with suicide. Somehow, Season 2, Episode 3 navigates these delicate topics in a neat 23 minutes of hilarious animated sci-fi featuring guest stars like Christina Hendricks and Patton Oswalt — it also led to one of the darkest Rick and Morty fan theories of all time. This episode punched a hole straight through my chest. Other fans have called it the most touching scene in television history.
'Rick and Morty' fans will never forget Season 2's darkest moment

Rick, Morty and Summer stumble on a hive mind named Unity that Rick used to date. Summer objects to Unity's control over an alien planet's population. While travelling through space and jamming to some music, Rick, Morty , and Summer come across a distress signal from an alien starship. Rick intercepts and boards the starship with the intention of looting it, but instead he comes across the ship's surviving crew members, who explain their planet has been taken over by an assimilating hive-mind, before the aforementioned hive mind attacks and assimilates the rest of the crew. To the trio's shock, the hive mind apparently knows Rick, who awkwardly admits that he and the hive mind, named Unity, used to "date. Back on the planet Unity overtook, Unity explains how it was able to take over the entire population, unifying the world and improving the quality of the inhabitants' life, at the cost of their free will and individuality.

Rick And Morty started as a cult sci-fi sitcom on Adult Swin in and quickly became a smash worldwide. The series follows the adventures of scientist Rick and his grandson Morty with the show blending comedy, action, horror, drama, and just about every other genre. Rick And Morty has run for four seasons thus far and due to Adult Swim renewing it for 70 episodes back in , it should last for a good few years yet. While Rick And Morty is primarily a comedy series, it features surprisingly deep characterization too. Rather than the character's being one-note stereotypes, the flaws and traumas of every member of the family has been explored throughout the series.
