SPOILERS

i actually loved being reminded that rick is an old man like all the stuff he did in the ep was old man stuff.

I loved rick interacting with "normal" people and the little love story plot was cute

I did feel like it referenced some movies but i cant rmemeber what. But it felt similar

Anyway! TEDDDDDDDD

we heart ted.

Better yet it seems even though "ted" is just rick with no memories it is shown he is still a genius and that is fun to see

Also love to see the pool being mentioned when did that happened. We know it was there in ep 1 so FUN CALL BACK ALREADY!!!

Oughhh i love ted / vacation rick his so fun and its so refreshing to see!

This ep is a banger and compared to ep 1 i did find myself enjoying it more

10/10 ep

There is nothing to hate about this ep like it is truly the best.

this episode feels so heartbreaking in a nostalgic sort of way. Rick is essentially an eldritch horror from Ted's point of view view, whereas Ted is just all of Rick's lost innocence made manifest.

Slowly watching him become Rick was so sad after seeing how happy he was with his friends

And he had assembled a ride or die crew, those were like best friend level friends and he had like a whole fucking truckload.

Not only without hesitation, but they insisted. Crazy shit. These two episodes are probably the best season opener of the series imo. Absolute home runs.
