Nearly every episode of this show has been great, but this could be the best episode yet. From Andy Daly's chipper voicing of Krombopolus Michael, an assassin very excited about killing, to a daycare service in space for all of the Jerrys, this episode rocks. The Roy game that Morty plays at Blips and Chips is sublime- a game in which you live another person's entire life. Jermaine Clement's Fart character grows a little tiresome with the singing, but overall a very important piece of the entire plot line. This episode probably ties with the ingenuity and laugh out loud moments of the Lawnmower Dog and Meeseeks episodes. I won't even say what happens to the Gear Head character, but it is hilarious. Let's just say "Do you even now my real name? Calling me Gear Head is like calling a Chinese person "Asia Face"" It just gets even better from there. Krombopolus Michael's lines, although sparse, totally hit the mark- "I have no code of ethics. I'll kill children, animals, old people...doesn't matter. I just love killing!" This episode delivers dark comedy in an upbeat fashion as has been the norm for this great show.

The Most Rewatchable Episode I've ever Seen.

Warning: Spoilers
I don't know what it is about this episode, whether it be Rick calling Morty a "Carpet-Store Mother F*cker," the David Bowie-esque "Goodbye Moonmen," or Krombopulus Michael's enthusiastic "Oh Boy, Here I go killing again!" but I have seen this episode four times now and still get a laugh from basically every scene. Aside from my roommate questioning what the hell was going on during the "Goodbye Moonmen" sequence, I can see no point in which the episode could be improved. I would go on about all the great moments, but if you're reading this review you've probably already seen the episode, and it would take less time for you to watch it again (which I recommend) than for me to continue writing this review. Keep an eye out for a familiar, blue friend in the background (it seems rather obvious, but I missed it during my first viewing).

Rick's Shady Attitude Hides His True Conclusions
hamidullahgenc11 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
When we look at what Rick, all we think of is that he is so mean to anyone and everyone, and he cares only for his "stupid" adventures and science experiments... So, we feel like he only stays with her daughter to pay no rent to cheap motels or wash house, and to make fun of his son-in-law intentionally.
However, in this episode I realized something; Whenever he says something, it probably does include some self interest but at the same time it is so true.
E.g. when he tells Morty he gives Krombopulos Michael the assassin lethal weapons in exchange of tickets for Blips and Chits in which pretty much all the craziness we see on Earth is really there to enjoy yourself with, Morty tries to stop the "creative gas (which is called Fart)" and we see at the end that the gas was really threat to all humanity.
So, the gas and the Krombopulos were equally bad, and Rick might have been aware of this fact the whole time, so he might have been playing one evil party against another for the universal good. Therefore, watch out for what Rick who is a mean dad and a terrible grandfather says next.
The Koran (25 : 68) warns against wrongdoers: "And those who do not invoke with Allah another deity or kill the soul which Allah has forbidden (to be killed), except by right, and do not commit unlawful sexual intercourse. And whoever should do that will meet a penalty."
