Rick, Morty and others in “Unfinished Business”

Oof, well, I'm stumped. Seems like there's no way out of this one. Unless... [looks to the fake vat of acid]

[flatly] Goddammit.

[obviously feigning ignorance] Yeah. I guess it is, uh, what did you call it? Uh, uhm... a "shitty idea"?

Goddammit. [starts climbing the vat's ladder]

[smugly] Say the vat is good.

[resigned] The vat is good...

Kiss the vat.

Do not go into that vat. It appears to be full of acid.

It is! Please, he's just a little boy! Let me talk to him.

Tell him we're very upset!

[in full-on "bad acting" mode] Morty, please step back! That vat is full of acid! It will melt you completely, leaving only your bones!

[exasperated] Goddammit!

I'm sorry, what did you say?

I'm going in the vat! [he jumps into the vat as his girlfriend pushes through the crowd]

[sarcastically] Oh god, oh, I blame myself. Oh, what a tragedy. Oh, well, he's bones now. I guess all debts are paid.

Agreed. He's definitely dead.

Why else would the bones come up?

While his actions were horrifying, and we are well within our rights to be outraged, I do wonder if we did bear some responsibility for this young man melting himself in acid. Are we here for justice, or something else?

[with significance] "Though justice be thy plea, consider this – that in the course of justice none of us should see salvation. We do pray for mercy."

Merchant of Venice. Nice. Very cool, lots to think about.

Vengeance is a tomb all-encompassing—

[hastily] Okay, this isn't a poetry reading. A kid just died. Everyone go home and hug your loved one or something.
