Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Rick and Morty find themselves in a fight against face hugging aliens who just happen to have an M&M’s store.

Our Take

A fun Alien riff that starts with the pair already infected, which is a smart way to skip the setup we’ve seen a hundred times. The middle stretch where they debate how to fight the parasites drags a bit, but the M&M’s store gag and the face-hugger society stuff land well. Solid, breezy, and worth the twenty minutes.
