The sad thing is going by Summer's rant about Ethan is that he actually let her down pretty gentle.

I'd have to re-watch the episode to see what you mean, but Ethan still pulled a dick move. He may have let her down gently, but in the process he bailed on the plans they had to go camping or whatever, and took the new girl on the exact trip he was supposed to take Summer on. Maybe it's just me but that seems like kind of an rear end in a top hat thing to do.

Not that it justifies Morty turning him into a Cronenberg, but what're ya gonna do?

The episode was ultimately Morty's fault for asking for a superscience date-rape drug, but the Cronenberging was primarily the result of Rick's failure to understand biology.

I kinda want rick to be a lovely biologist when it comes to human beings. I know he's an omnidisciplinary super scientists and all but I think it'd actually help kinda underline his character in a pretty meaningful way if he just straight up didn't understand people on a level that impedes him. I mean I already know that ship has fuckken sailed but yaknow, that'd be my hot take.

Thinking back, biology seems to be a relatively weak spot for Rick. The whole Cronenberg incident, the fact that his big contribution to Anatomy World has more to do with pirates than anatomy, getting literally blindsided by the muscle memory arm, and even in the latest episode he needed to trap some little guys in his body modification ray to run tech support for him.

It's really a miracle that all the innocent deaths and destruction weren't directly Rick's fault this go around.

OzzyManReviews Voice: I reckon the theme of the episode is forgiveness. Jerry forgiving Rick, Rick forgiving Jerry, Summer forgiving her mother, Morty not forgiving Ethan for wrecking up his Vay-K; but most importantly, Risotto Groupon who couldn't forgive Big Dick Rick. All those innocent rich fucks got killed cause one prick just couldn't move on past his own YouTube drama. In the end, Rick, Jerry, and 'Sotto walked a cosmos in each other's shoes but Rick realized that nah yeah, forgiveness is good and everything but at this point you're just gonna try to start poo poo again.

I didn't realize how much I wanted this until now.

He's also got a swarm of Nano-machines in his top layer of skin so he's honestly probably at least some kind of bulletproof.
