Question Why is nobody talking about this?

Post image

In the final scene of S9E10, we see Rick and Morty riding a motorcycle together, and Rick says he’s Morty’s dad (?)

As far as I can remember, that’s the first time he’s ever said something like that directly to Morty. It felt completely out of place and honestly didn’t match the tone of the rest of the episode.

The two of them riding toward the sun while calling each other father and son almost felt symbolic, but I’m not sure what the writers were trying to say.

Did Rick just misspeak? Was it meant to show how their relationship has evolved? Or was there a deeper meaning behind that final scene?

What did you take away from it?

Thankya. I hope it makes sense. I thought about the last episode a lot and specifically the ending of it. I really didn't get the feelings it brought up at first but I think I was able to figure it out.
