Once upon a time, Rick left his own daughter, Beth, and set off to travel the galaxy. He soon realized that there were several realities, in each of which he, Rick, was a mad scientist. The company to him in every journey is a grandson, Morty, who is afraid even of his own shadow. After spending many years traveling, he decides to return home. For his Morty.
As it turned out, here Beth is waiting for him. She has a daughter, Summer – she is smart, cynical and popular at school. Her husband, Jerry, although not a role model, is considered a good father and a relatively good spouse. But the main thing for Rick remains the youngest child of Beth – Morty.
The boy is in high school, in love with his classmate Jessica, extremely stupid, cowardly and asks too many questions that Rick has to constantly answer. However, Rick will never trade Morty for another companion, especially if you take into account his family members. Pretending to be good-natured, Rick lives in Beth’s house and enjoys all the amenities.

Jerry is the first to understand that Rick has a bad influence on Morty, and he also uses Beth’s resentment to his advantage. By pushing the levers correctly, Rick is able to make Beth take his side and turn his back on her husband. In one of the previous seasons, Rick was able to quarrel his daughter with Jerry, as a result of which the couple is on the verge of a divorce.
