- Aah! What are you doing?!

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

Dad? Dad? Hello?

What is wrong with you?

Really?

Oh.

Okay.

[ROOSTER CROWING]

Mornin', ass[BURPS]holes.

What's this? Pancakes? Sold.

What was up with you last night?

I was totally talking to you and
you acted like I wasn't there.

I did? Oh, yeah. No. That wasn't me.

Technically. That was my night person.

Been having him do crunches
while I sleep. Check it.

- Damn! Check out that washboard, yo!
- Hey. Too hard.

What the hell's a night person?

I nabbed a Somnambulator

while passing through the
Goobie-Joob System last week.

Best investment I've ever made.

Before going to bed, I type a
list of sh*t I want to get done.

Then the Somnambulator
programs my unconscious body,

or "night person," to
do it while I sleep.

I'm getting so much done.

C-Can my night person get me
an ab stack like yours, Rick?

I'm gonna have my night
person learn me Spanish

- so I can pass my test next week!
- Hey, hey, hey.

- No one gets a night person but me.
- Aw!

This tech is way too
advanced for you zeebs.

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

- What?
- Nothing.

No. Go on. Say it.

Say what? I don't know
what you're talking about.

Okay! Fine! f*ck it!

Everybody gets a night person. Whatever.

Stick out your fingers.
It needs a blood sample.

Blood? Can't I just give it
Beth's credit card number?

This isn't Postmates, Jerry.

The Somnambulator needs your DNA profile

to send commands to your subconscious.

It can poke all the fingers
I got if I get abs like Rick.

Well, looks like I'm
learning the trumpet.

Okay. Remember, somebody
has to catch me if I faint.

Yay! Night family!

- Whoo!
- Oh.

The stream's about to go live.

- Morty and I started a podcast

we call "FAB-solutely AB-ulous."

It's... It's an ab-centric hour of fun.

Hoping to get Nancy Pelosi
on the show next week.

Want to drop her on our abs!

[LAUGHS] Yeah!

Guess who has a new pen pal!

No takers?

- It's me!
- Pen pal?

Night Jerry and I write
letters to each other.

- It's super fun.
- "I also like Tori Amos."

"Hope you like our new pajamas."

"What is the sun?"

Jerry, this isn't how you're supposed
to use a night person.

You two are being a couple
of Debbie Down-theres.

Wait until Night Jerry reads about this.

- Abs are cool.
- Way cool.

But as above, so below.
Know what I'm sayin', Rick?

Morty, you must be referring
to these excellent boxer shorts

we got from the good
folks at Boxer Lobster.

Boxer Lobster Boxers feel like they're
warm butter on your schwantz.

And they come in all sorts of styles...

neon, plaid, orange.

I-I even got a pair
with that little, uh...

the raccoon man from that
one movie, uh, printed on it.

- Chewbacca.
- Do yourself a favor and level up

with Boxer Lobster Boxers.

You'll be glad you did.

Oh, sh*t, Rick,

they want you to say
"Wub-a-lubba-dub-dub" at the end.

Screw that. We're not whores.

Guys, dinner's getting cold.

You know what's not getting cold?

This hot stack of ab-jacks, son.

Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! P-Pow!

Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow!

Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! P-Pow!

- No notes.
- Oh! One more thing.

Night Jerry said Night Summer
would appreciate it

if everybody could rinse off
their plates after eating.

- What?
- You know, rinse the schmutz off after eating.

Makes it easier to clean up later.

What?

Our job is not to make the
night people's chores easier.

It's a reasonable request,
Rick. Takes two seconds.

They exist only to do the
sh*t we don't want to do.

So until further notice,
which will be never...

... request denied. [SPITS]

Hello there. [CLICKS TONGUE]

Seems like you spent

Jerry tell your boyfriend
to suck my d*ck

and good luck breaking
super alien dishes.

I'll let him know, but
he's not gonna like it.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYS]

[SNIFFS] What?

[HISSING] Why won't
you rinse your dishes?

[HISSING] It takes two seconds.

[HISSING, WHISPERING]
If you don't, the schmutz dries

and makes the dish harder to clean.

Rinse your dishes!

- Rinse!
- Rinse!

- Rinse!
- Rinse!

Let me go! Who locked my implants?

NIGHT SUMMER: [HISSING]
I told you to after you fell asleep.

You see, night you is not in charge.

Night I... am.

Pft! I don't care. I ain't rinsing sh*t.

Hey! W-What are you doing?

If you refuse to clean your dishes...

- then I will have to do it for you.
- [GRUNTING]

Unh-unh! Unh-unh-unh! Unh-unh!

I have always been here, Rick,

deep inside the mind of your grandchild,

waiting to come out.

[FORK SCRAPING, RICK GRUNTING]

Your machine allowed
me to steal the night.

And soon... I will seize the day.

[GRUNTING] [GULPS]

[GRUNTING, COUGHS]

Oh! Baby Jesus!

[GRUNTS] Oh, it's awful!

Oh, Baby Jesus! Awful!

[GULPING]

What the f*ck is your problem with me?

What? What? I don't know
what you're talking about!

I just got force-fed diarrhea
by your night person,

who's also convinced night me
to lock me out of my tech.

MORTY: Uh, Rick? There's been a
pretty clear escalation down here.

The night family stripped
the house last night.

Everything's gone,
including the Somnambulator!

They locked us out of the garage.

Don't know about you,
but I got the hoo-ha's.

God damn it! Are you happy now, Summer?

I didn't do anything.

- I'm trapped in this bullshit, too.
- Yeah. Glad you think so.

Because I got a plan to
b*at Night Summer...

You're going undercover.

Did you have to make
mushy garbage science

- on the living-room carpet?
- Yeah. No choice, Jerry.

Night Summer had Night
Rick take away my tech.

Had to improvise.

There are different levels of cortisol

in your bloodstream when you're asleep,

so this interface only works
off my awake saliva samples...

Naghh.

There. No one asleep will be able
to deactivate the laser cage

- until I win.
- W-Where's Summer?

Never mind her. All of you...
[WHISTLES] Get to bed.

Ugh! It itches. This whole
thing is way uncomfortable.

Yeah, that's the idea.

The Sleep Deprivation Suit is designed

to keep you awake until morning.

Uh, aren't they going to be suspicious

seeing Night Summer covered
in all this Terry Gilliam?

They're not gonna question her.

She's the leader of the night
family for some stupid reason.

When the night family
activates, just blend in.

Make them think you're Night Summer.

If you start to nod off,
suck on this tube.

- What is it?
- A cocktail of Mountain Dew and DayQuil.

The kids in Southern
Europe call it DewQuil.

- Smells gross.
- It is.

Once you find the Somnambulator,
use this Deactivator Puck.

Stick it on the Somnambulator,
and when the puck activates,

it'll fry its circuits. [GULPS]

Remember... stay awake all night.

Meet me back here at sunrise.
