Pre-Season 3, Before the "The Rickshank Rickdemption" Episode. Commander Rick Sanchez of the Citadel's Militia is used to being alone. It's comfortable. It's safe. Or so he thought. When the Citadel of Ricks is attacked by the Galactic Federation, he is forced to forsake his solitude and choose a Morty from the recruitment program to hide his brain waves. Why did he choose the bitter one with boobs? He wouldn't be able to tell you. It may be because she's rare. Or maybe it's the fact that they've both lost something. Or it may be all a mistake. Commander Rick and Morticia Smith can barely stand to look at each other, much less be permanently bonded as eachother's Rick and Morty, but, hey. It's worth a shot, right?
