Rick and Morty season 7, episode 2 pairs up a duo that the show has utilized in the past, but their dynamic feels fresh thanks to a sci-fi twist.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary While Rick and Morty season 7, episode 2 features a clever body swap plot, it's the show’s inventive use of an unlikely pairing that makes the outing work. Rick and Morty usually focuses on the dynamic between its title characters, even though the show occasionally makes exceptions to this rule.
Since Rick and Morty season 7 recast both of the show's title characters, it makes sense for its creators to prioritize continuity and keep the status quo in place. However, that is not what the writers of Rick and Morty season 7, episode 2, "The Jerrick Trap,” do. Instead, “The Jerrick Trap” brings together an unlikely pairing who have only collaborated on-screen a few times before.
Rick & Morty Season 7 Reinvents Jerry & Rick’s Dynamic Rick and Morty’s Rick/Jerry story in "The Jerrick Trap" subverts traditional body swap plots, as the characters only swap bodies for a few seconds at the start of the episode. Then, Rick immediately shoots himself, while Jerry dies soon after. Like Rick and Morty season 7 episode 1, "The Jerrick Trap” takes its storyline in an unexpected direction.
Jerry and Rick are paired off in previous episodes of Rick and Morty, including installments like season 6's "Final DeSmithation" and season 3's "The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy." However, in these chapters, Rick helps Jerry out with his genius. In "The Jerrick Trap," the pair is on equal footing for a change. Like Rick and Morty season 7’s first post-credits stinger, this twist signals a return to the more subversively silly writing of earlier seasons.
"The Jerrick Trap" Proves Rick & Jerry Need To Be Paired More Often If Rick and Morty season 7 can continue finding fresh ways to exploit Rick and Jerry’s relationship, as seen in “The Jerrick Trap,” the show should revisit this surprisingly solid pairing. While a lot of Rick and Morty episodes see Rick and Jerry complaining about one another, “The Jerrick Trap” uses this routine as the basis for something new.
