What happened in Rick and Morty season 8 episode 6?
Episode 6, titled, The CuRicksous Case of Bethjamin Button, went off on a tangent from the standard galaxy-leaping to concentrate on something far more earthbound: Beth's damaged connection with her dad.
Both Space Beth and Beth are introduced as feeling trapped in their daily existence; one is buried in duty on Earth, while the other is lost in space with no sense of purpose.
When Rick suggests a visit to a surreal Earth-themed fun park, the two Beths opt to remain behind, have wine, and commiserate with each other about their mutual discontent.
In classic Rick and Morty style, things spiral wildly out of control when the Beths turn themselves back into children using alien technology. What begins as a wistful experiment ends as a wild rampage of destruction, with the two childlike Beths property-damaging, traumatizing their neighbor Gene, and ultimately burning down his house.
While Rick and the rest of the family go through their own bizarre trajectory within the reimagined Earthworld, complete with haywire robots and an unwelcome reunion with the park's fallen founder.
At home, Rick steps in just as events get out of hand. After a whirling-dervish standoff with gadgets and generational recrimination, the episode culminates in a precious emotional dividend: Rick accepts both versions of Beth as his daughters.
