06x05 - Final DeSmithation

[bunniefuu]

JERRY: Ah! Now, that was
some fantastic chow mein.

And before you say that sounded r*cist,

you can ask the waiter how they say it.

It's Panda Express, honey.
The waiter's from Portland.

All right, who the hell
changed my ringtone

- to the theme from "Taxi"?
- [BOTH LAUGH]

It's a new thing on Taxi Tok.

That's a subculture on TikTok of kids

who decided the theme from "Taxi" slaps.

Now you have to play the "Taxi" theme

for ten people while I film it.

I don't have to do sh*t. That's dumb.

It raises awareness for leukemia.

So... who else is excited
for the zoo tomorrow?

Zoos are my favorite
kind of non-water park.

It's just a shame that they
both give you diarrhea.

You only get diarrhea at
the zoo if you eat the food

you're supposed to feed to the animals.

SUMMER: Which you've done, twice.

They put it in gumball machines.

You know, fortune cookies only come true

if you eat the cookie first.

All right. "Hard work
often pays off"? Lame.

"Family time is time well spent."

Okay, that's not only empty.
It's been disproven.

Okay, mine says, "Family
time is time well... "

Oh, man, I got the same one?

- Boo.
- Boo.

What's your stupid -century
watered-down fortune cookie say, Dad?

"You will have sex with your mother."

Fortune cookies aren't
legitimate, right?

Jerry, are you seriously asking

if I think you're gonna
have sex with your mom?

No, I-I wanted to ask
if it's okay with you

if I make myself throw up the cookie.

If it makes you feel better
and you can do it quietly, yes,

but don't hand that advice
down to Summer.

[RETCHING]

Ugh! Can't do it.

Sleepy Gary ruined my gag reflex,

which is frustrating because
Sleepy Gary wasn't real.

Neither are fortune cookies.
Go to sleep, Jerry.

I know they're not real. [CHUCKLES]

It's just... why is it so specific?

And why are three of the numbers

a few numbers off from
my Mom's birthday?!

Can we investigate this, Rick?

It's not an X-File, Jerry.

You got the world's last
interesting fortune.

Dad, can you explain to TikTok
what's going on with your mom?

Summer, no social videoing!
What if Mi-Maw sees it?

We can't let her know this is
a thing that might happen!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Uh, "might"?

- [PHONE BUZZING]
- She's calling again.

She doesn't usually call this much.

Because you don't usually ghost her

because you don't usually
decide you're at risk of...

What if she's calling me
to tell me I'm adopted?!

Well, yeah, then you
should definitely hit that.

[LAUGHTER]

That's not funny!

Jerry, you're making it funny
by taking it seriously.

And none of us will be laughing
if you let this ruin our zoo trip.

Rick, can you use science to
make it impossible for me to...

Jerry, you're insulting science.

And as the most powerful
[BURPS] man in the universe,

if I create technology to
prevent a random occurrence,

I'll end up making it more
possible than random.

- [PHONE BUZZING]
- [GASPS]

- [LAUGHTER] _
- When do we leave for the zoo?

One hour. You have one
hour to let go of this.

I'm already done thinking about it.

[LAUGHING]

MORTY: Check that out, huh?

[LAUGHTER]

- [CELLPHONE DINGS]
- JERRY: Ah!

Ah! No!

[GROANS]

Aah! Aah! Aah!

[LAUGHTER]

Let me out! Let me out!

[GRUNTING]

- You have ten seconds.
- I want to go.

You know of my love for the zoo!

Why are you dressed like Morty?

Because Morty's mom is Beth.

- I'm not unpacking that.
- [HORN HONKS]

Okay, if you think I have this
much patience for the zoo,

on Earth, you're sorely mistaken.

Jerry, if you don't come with
us, I will be so disappointed.

Okay, you guys should
probably go on without Jerry.

I just took some readings
on his probability field,

and this fortune has some strange powers

- I'm gonna need to investigate.
- Really?!

- Oh, God, I knew it.
- [SIGHS] Okay.

- Well, be careful, honey.
- Ooh!

Bring me back a handful of zebra snacks?

A-And please take pictures with my
favorite animal, the white tiger!

- SUMMER: Because they breed via incest?
- Is that true?!

[LAUGHTER]

- Ah. I knew I was right.
- Not even close.

I just didn't want to see someone
get bullied into going to a zoo.

You may be the single dumbest
human I've ever met, Jerry,

but you still have a right to take
whatever you want seriously.

Thank you, but if that thing says
I'm not gonna do it with my mom,

I can go to the zoo.

Jerry, this thing measures
aberrations in probability waves.

I didn't even bother to turn
it on because if I did...

[WHIRRING, BEEP]

- Huh.
- What?!

Nothing. Don't get weird on me.

But, uh, since we're
free for the afternoon,

you mind doing a quick activity?

We're gonna disprove this
with efficient brute force.

These are two shoeboxes. Both are empty,

but I wrote your mother's
name on the inside of one.

What? God, no! If you think for
a second I'm gonna put my...

Good. I didn't wanna do this anyway.

Fine! Can I just tell you which
box I would put my penis in?

Saying it seems worse, but okay.

All right. I would put my
penis in the box on the right.

Great. Uh, look in the other direction,

and I'm gonna switch up the boxes.

This feels really low-tech.

Yeah, 'cause we're measuring reality.

I would take out my penis

and place it in the box on the... right.

Again.

I would put my penis...

Jerry, you don't have to
say "penis" every time.

- Just left or right.
- Hey, this was your idea!

I didn't think it'd go on this long.

Okay, penis. Ugh! Left!

- Keep going.
- Right.

Left. Right.

Jerry, are you f*cking peeking?

Tell me what's going on!
You're scaring me!

[WHIRRING, BEEP]

Okay, I'm just as
likely to sh*t a balloon

as I am to become a dolphin.

Those are things that could happen?

Jerry, everything is as
likely as anything else.

[WHIRRING, BEEP]

Which is why it's weird that
you're at all likely to...

To what? To what?!

Jerry, has your mother
been leaving messages?

Three texts. I'm afraid to read them.

Read them.

She's asking if she can come visit.

Why would she want that?!

Jerry, I'm gonna tell you something
I've never told anyone.

We need to go to Panda Express.

If these guys wanted my respect,

they could've just gotten
a liquor license.

Now you think this has
something to do with you?

Jerry, whoever's behind that
fortune has, like, god powers.

Of course it has something
to do with me.

What do you think I am in
this story, the father-in-law?

[WHIRRING, CLICK]

You guys wanted my attention?

"You're a-gonna break your leg

unless you investigate
