What is it, Morty?

They're coming fast, Rick. Get the hell out of there!

I'm in the middle of something.

Using the wormhole formula makes it

so that an infinite amount of space

could fit into a bathtub-sized area.

You don't even need a stupidly huge contraption like this

to make CP transformation possible.

It's painfully obvious!

They're already on top of you.

I'm headed your way now. Run for it, Rick. Run!

I've got nothing to do with your little army.

Just leave me the hell out of it.

Jesus, I'm just Rick. I'm plain, old Rick.

Morty Smith.

This little shithead is the Earthling responsible

for ruining all of our major operations lately.

He's the grandson of the infamous Rick Sanchez.

Are you kidding me?

You don't mess around with that gene pool.

Eliminate him immediately,

or you can kiss any future promotions goodbye, sir.

Oh, my God! What else?

This woman has been seen working alongside Morty Smith

as his partner in crime.

She's that race with memories of the future.

- But we killed them all. - We killed who now?

That girl knows the future.

You are advised to follow our orders immediately.

Stay on your guard, Elle.

You can relax. It's gonna be just fine.

Hmm...

Space Morty, otherwise known as Morty Smith,

is to be recognized

as an honorary citizen at the independence ceremony.

He's a precious member of my family.

Make him your partner for just a simple annual fee.

Morty Smith, my man.

Huh?

Thanks to your brave efforts,

team morale has never been higher.

Aah! Don't thank me.

What?

She's the entire reason why I can keep on fighting.

Elle is the one who gives me the strength I need.

Hmm? Huh?

[Moaning]

That girl knows the future.

[Gulping]

[Belches]

Or, more specifically,

she can perceive the future in the same way as the past.

Although she knows the future, she cannot change it,

just like how we can't change the past.

[Cellphone ringing]

[Groaning]

Huh?

- Aah! - Huh?

Ah! Take it from me.

A good president doesn't hesitate to take action.

All you have to do is plug this into your ear,

and everything you do will become virtuous.

So, then, does that mean I won't have any more critics?

Those won't go away.

This directly connects your brain

and lowers the level of cognizance.

You following me, bitch? At the very least,

it'll let you believe that you're in the right

- while you do your "job." - Huh.

And I've even made enough

for your flunkies to use on the house.

You can all live in a happy fantasy land,

no matter what the world thinks.

It'll stop your annoying conscience

from getting in the way.

Total freedom, baby!

[Laughs] Fantastic.

Hell, yes!

Papa can afford to corner the Xenus market!

You know this has been making the rounds lately.

He's your grandson, right?

The whole suit is equipped with a ton of weapons.

Huh? Huh? Oh!

- Hmm-mm! - [Mumbles]

- Hmm. - Hmm? Something wrong?

Hmm... hmm.

It's my fault you got dragged into this.

Mm-hmm.

But it was destined to happen, right?

Elle, I appreciate you and what you do.

Y-you know?

Each day with you is so wonderful and amazing.

I feel like the two of us can do anything when we're together.

Time is three-dimensional for her.

- Huh? - Are you brain dead or what?

Okay, listen carefully.

From her perspective, time flows from past to future

but also from future to past.

She can perceive all of that as a single whole,

the entirety of time.

And I mean it... like a gestalt of time.

[Snoring]

Or, in other words...

[Gulps, belches]

...she can perceive the moment of her death

at the moment of her birth.

[Yawns]

♪♪

We can't even imagine what that's like.

Or, actually, maybe it's more that we can't see time

as something visible.

Happy accidents, huh, Morty?

Be honest. Don't I freak you out?

Why would you?

It's just that a lot of people are afraid of me

or just don't want to be around me.

- You don't scare me at all. - Huh?

Ah! Mm!

In fact [Gulping] I feel my best when I'm with you.

She's aware of every second before it happens.

She knows exactly what she will do

and how the people around her will respond.

But, despite that,

she has no choice but to accept a future that can't be changed.

[Gulps, belches]

It would drive me insane.

You also have a present, right, Elle?

A present?

I mean, right now, this very moment.

The present, this exact point in time, exists in multitudes.

Oh, yes! Of course.

It's no different from you humans.

The only thing that's certain is now,

this very moment.

What you think of as the present

is really just a small speck of time.

In the moment the future comes, it turns into the past.

That little tiny speck of now exists right in between

a perpetual future and past.

And inside of that small speck

is where we get to live out our lives.

From what I see, the present is bright.

You know? It's very bright.

H-hold up, Rick.

Doesn't the universe split off into countless branches?

I mean, you know, any future is possible?

Sure, there are countless branches,

but the universe only splits into worlds

that are actually conceivable.

Everybody understands that, Morty.

They just don't want to admit it.

A future that has no chance of existing will never come...

at least normally.

And in the universe that you're from,

there should have been a zero chance of meeting with Elle.

Aah-aah-aah-aah!
