Rick and Morty - S07E08 - Rise of the Numbericons: The Movie

Episode aired December 3, 2023

Continuing from the post-credits scene of “Get Schwifty”, Water-T fights off the Numbericon invasion of his home planet. Having inherited a pendant called the “Eye of Harmony” from his late father, Water-T reluctantly decides to consult his old math teacher, Mr. Goldenfold, over the mathematical equation written on it. However, the Numbericon Sinistar-7 tracks down Water-T, forcing him to flee with both Goldenfold and Morty. Goldenfold manages to decipher the equation to discover the location of the mythical planet E-10, the supposed home of the god that created the Letters. Sinistar-7 attacks again, causing both her and Water-T’s group to crash on E-10. On the surface. Water-T and Sinistar-7 are initially hostile, but eventually fall in love until Sinistar-7’s father, Emperor Dreadnaught arrives and captures everybody. However, Emperor Dreadnaught’s spy Number Eight betrays him and steals the power of the Eye of Harmony for himself, becoming Infinity. Going mad with power, Infinity kills Emperor Dreadnaught and begins massacring both Letters and Numbericons. Water-T uses the power of rap to unite the Letters and Numbericons against Infinity and the spirit of his father transforms him into Magma-T. Magma-T and Sinistar-7 then use their love to power the Eye of Harmony and destroy Infinity. Afterwards, Morty picks up a new appreciation for math and Magma-T finally turns in his overdue homework to Goldenfold.
Post-credits scene : The Geomitron Ice Cube requests help from Magma-T and Sinistar-7, now the leaders of the united Alphanumericons, to help save his home planet. Magma-T and Sinistar-7 agree to aid Ice Cube in a new adventure titled “Magma-T & Ice Cube in: Challenge of the Geomitrons”.

Magnesium-J. Hydrogen-F. Father. I am ready to rejoin my brethren on Alphabetrium.

Very well. Your exile ends today.

Sorry I’m late. I had to go pee.

Yo, what do you know about this?

The “I” of Harmony. It holds some secret power, but it’s in a language nobody can read.

You don’t gotta read shit, Lithium-P. It’s math.

Careful, T. They won’t like that kind of number talk at the palace.

We’re not going to the palace. We’re going to Earth.

Why? You know a math expert there?

Unfortunately, I do.

In conclusion, without math planes wouldn’t fly and elephants would forget.

[Rap music playing softly]

What is that sound? Who is using air buds to listen to rap music?

Sorry, Mr. Goldenfold.

Detention! Class dismissed early so Morty can have instant detention.

Student #1: Aw, no!

Student #2: Are you serious?

I want to learn! I want to add and stuff.

Geez, Mr. Goldenfold, it’s just a little hip hop. It helps me concentrate.

Rap will never help anyone do anything.

Some things never change.

Morty and Goldenfold: Ice-T?

Hey! Ice-T, it’s me, Morty. Remember me? “G-Get Schwifty”?

No. Aw. And it’s Water-T now.

I don’t give an ass if you’re Smokey Robinson. You got the balls of a clown coming back to this school without the homework you owe me.

Fuck your homework, old man. My planet’s at stake.

Mr. Goldenfold, you taught Ice-T math?

I tried, Morty. I sure the hell tried.

Without math, Russia would control all Rubik’s Cubes. Any questions?

Just one. Who gives a fuck?

[Students cheering]

[Rapping] I am a knight, walking, back of class talking, homework scoffing, blackboard chalking…

Look, man, I ain’t here for memory lane shit. I need this deciphered.

Hmm. Early Algebraic, possibly even Geometric.

Yo, English.

I don’t teach English, bitch! And why would I do your homework? You didn’t do mine.

‘Cause I had no home! Now I do. Help me save it.

Aah!

All Type Strikers, attack! Kill the Son of Magma-Q! I want his serifs.

♪♪

You’re coming with me, Goldenfold.

You better be taking me to your homework. You’re coming with me, Morty.

Why?

It’s called detention, not “releastion.”

♪♪

[Ship whooshes]

Sorry I’m late. I had to go pee.

I know.

Well, there’s new people. I thought they’d like to hear about it.

Yeah, yeah. Just start the fucking ship.

♪♪

[Static crackling]

I see the tales of your dopeness have been greatly exaggerated.

Big talk from an upside down L.

I am Sinistar-7, and I am here to spill the T.

Then come get me, muthafucka!

♪♪

[Alarm beeping]

She’s got a Caps Lock!

And an ass to suck. Hit the hyphen drive!

[Bell dings]

No. No!

♪♪

[Decimal Crumb cackles]

Speak.

Lord Dread Nought. Water-T escaped with the “I” of Harmony.

Aah! The One of Harmony!

[Laughs] That’s gotta hurt!

[Groans] You’re a number. Act like it. Subtract Water-T from life and carry the One to me.

I won’t let you down… Father.

Too late.

Too late! [Laughs] Oh! Oh, wow. Oh, I love my job.

The Pythagorean Theorem! I just have to figure out what A and B are, square them both, and then add them together.

Can you do it?

If I do, I want my homework.

Fine!

Why do you guys hate each other so much?

Why do all teachers hate all students, Morty? Because you all break our God damn hearts.

Just seems like there’s more going on there. Was he that bad at math?

No, Morty. Nobody is worse than you. The hurtful thing about your friend back there is that at one point, it seemed like he might learn.

[Rapping offbeat] I am a nightmare walking, psychopath talking, king of my jungle just a gangster stalk stalking. Stalking. Fuck.

Look at all this non-scholastic depravity! Reef-er, Cheetos, and not a smidgen of homework in sight!

Yo, why you coming in here fuckin’ up my words?

Uh, T, maybe you ought to go back to school. You can’t keep a beat to save your ass.

Damn. My dream just died.

Here. Follow this. It’s called four-four time.

[Rhythmically] One, two, three, four. Two, two, three —

[Rapping] I am a nightmare walkin’, psychopath talkin’ king of my jungle just a gangster stalkin’… Livin’ life like a firecracker…

Yo, Chuck! It’s Marvin! Your cousin Marvin D? Hey. Ya know that new sound you lookin’ for? Well, listen to this!

[Farts]

Ha! Got you again, mutha-fucker!

Wow. You think that guy’s cousin would stop taking his calls.

That’s not the point, Morty.

You included it in your story. But I get it. You and T were actually friends. So what went wrong?

Nice try, Morty. You think that if I connect with you, I’ll let you out of detention? Well, you can forget it! I’m all about boundaries now. Boundaries! I got it! Beep boop bop beep beep.

What is it?

It’s a map. A squared is the length of the galaxy. B squared is the height. So C squared takes you directly to…

Planet E-10?

Ain’t E-10 supposed to be where God created letters or some shit? That’s just a story we tell lowercase letters at bedtime.

Maybe there’s more to it.

Why bedtime?

What?

He — He said it was a story you told lowercase letters at bedtime. Y-You never tell the story during the day?

I guess I just hoped the phrase “bedtime” would make it easier to understand that lowercase letters are our version of children.

Oh, so you did that for me?

Well, half the people here are human. I didn’t want to exclude you.

We would have figured out it was children.

Yeah. Lowercase means smaller. We get it.

Feels like I’m being punished for clarity.

Punished? Jesus. I asked a question.

So did Hitler.

What the fuck is going on? Somebody set up a call or some shit. We need to send word to Alphabetrium.

♪♪

[Beeping, letters gasp]

Oxygen-S, we deciphered the “I” of Harmony and we’re headed to E-10.

That’s incredible, Water-T. Give me your coordinates. I’ll send help immediately.

Word.

Happy to serve, my lord. In quotes. [Laughs evilly] Secret villain!

Coming out of Helvetica Light Speed and approaching Planet E-10.

God damn.

Maybe it knows it’s home.

[Rumbling] What the math is happening?!

Die, Letter scum!

Aah!

I’m sick and tired of this bullshit. Yo, 7! Count this!

Three-zus Christ!

♪♪

♪♪

[Grunting]

♪♪

Typical letter, acting on emotion.

You’re welcome for saving your numbery-ass!

I won’t let you take me alive!

Have it your way.

If you’re going to act like ignorant children, I guess the teacher’s in charge. And, young lady, whoever told you numbers can’t be emotional did you wrong. On Earth, numbers get down. Sometimes even with letters.

Disgusting!

Uh-huh. See? That’s what everyone says. But then they go home and they type all kinds of shit into Pornhub.

[Scribbles shouting] Scribble! Jot jot!

Uh-oh! W-We’re surrounded by primitive googas.

[Gasps]

Okay. The primitive googas worship the glowing thing. Things don’t always resolve this fast. We’re making good time.

Scribble! Jot jot! Doodle! Doodle!

We can’t understand you.

Obviously, they want to take us to their village for an Ewok party.

Damn, making really good time.

[Scribbles chanting “jot jot,” music playing]

♪♪

This tribe claims the artifact comes from a religious site not far from here.

Awful nice of you to help.

I’m simply following the rules of war as your prisoner.

Or maybe you’re hoping if you’re nice, I’ll let my guard down so you can take the “I.”

How dare you! I’m not a seductress. I am a warrior. And that’s not an “I.” It’s a one.

It’s an “I.”

You guys don’t get out much, huh? It seems kind of obvious that these Scribbles are like the original species that letters and numbers came from. So that relic thing probably isn’t a one or an “I.” I-It’s probably just, like, a line. It’s symbolic of the fact that your people don’t need to be at war.

How do I know you again?

Get Schwifty.

It’s still nothing. So mind your damn business.

At least we agree on that.

Looks like your detention is officially over.

Why?

You finally learned how hard it is to teach.

No, I didn’t.

Then you…learned how hard it is to learn.

I already knew.

Just go to bed, you ungrateful shit!

Cock a doodle! Cock a doodle two!

The “I,” it’s gone! That bitch! 7 took the “I.”

Come on, Mr. Goldenfold.

Count me out, Morty. I’m tired of helping that son of a bitch.

Seriously? Feels like there’s a deeper beef than missing homework here. What really happened?

It was the summer of 1991…

Any friend of Ice-T is welcome in my home. And as governor, I can’t wait to add that math wing to Harry Herpson High School, Mr. Goldenfold.

And I shall put it to good use, sir!

Of course you will. More baby potatoes?

[Rap music playing on television]

God damn, I love rap.

♪♪

And the Grammy award for Rap Artist of the Year goes to…

Ice-T!

[Cheers and applause]

Yo, I just want to thank my words, the letters that made them, and that’s it! Nothing else. Peace!

I thought you said he’d thank math.

There must be some mistake. Try a different channel.

The mistake was believing you even knew Ice-T and could get me that math-loving youth vote. Now get out of here! I got a God damn presidential campaign to start.

After that, my dreams faded away like so many erections.

I mean, that sucks, but let’s stop Sinistar-7, and maybe you two sort this out on the way home?

Hmm. Pretty sound logic. And logic is a part of math!

Whatever. Come on.

If you’re pregnant. That’s my cell number. I know you can’t read it, but it’s important I made an effort.

W-What’s that?

Emperor Dread Nought.

♪♪

The fate of the Alphabetrians is at hand. Magma-Q’s legacy ends here.

How the fuck did he find us?

Oxygen-S: Betrayal reveal!

[Laughs evilly]

You appear displeased to see me, Prince Water-T.

Cold-ass mutha-fucker, you in league with Dread Nought? How could you do us Letters dirty like that, S?

My true name is not S. On Numbericonia they call me… 8!

8?! Oh, my God, he’s a number?! [Laughs] Did you know? I didn’t. [Laughs] Holy shit! I’m not even supposed to be here today. It’s my day off. For real. That’s how much I like working with these people!

[Chuckles] Good thing your father isn’t alive to see you fail. He’d be so disappointed.

Mutha-fucker, I’m gonna shoot you in the dick.

Ha! I would like to see you try. Villain exit.

Thanks for dragging me across the universe to be killed, Water-T. No homework-doing, mother-grabbin…

You want to go, old man? I’ll fuck you till you love me. I’ll put your kids through college. I’ll fucking take you to Boca Raton, you motherfucker!

Ease up, Water-T. After all, y-you did betray Goldenfold by, uh, not thanking math at the Grammys, I guess.

That’s what you think happened? Nah, G-Folds, it went like this.

[Hip hop music playing]

Didja listen to my album, Pop? It’s nominated for a Grammy.

Yes. I heard your album. What is this four-four time, rhythm nonsense? It’s disgusting! You’re a number-loving traitor who doesn’t care about anything but himself.

♪♪

I…I never knew.

You never asked.

Here…Father.

The destiny of the Numbericons is mine to claim! Everyone has to watch while I do it too. How does this thing work again?

Well, he was a bad father.

I am Infinity, omnipotent god of numbers! And I have a world of Letters to destroy! [Laughs]

I guess he doesn’t need the ship anymore. He doesn’t need the ship anymore, guys!

You heard Infinity. Move out!

Whoo-hoo! Alright!

We could have had something.

It was a mistake, T. Letters and Numbers can never be.

Morty: What do we do? He’s going to destroy Alphabetrium!

Whatever. I don’t care anymore.

Damn, T. That’s cold.

Exactly.

Whoa!

God damn.

You do remember our adventure!

Not really.

Wow! Dope shit, T!

If we don’t stop Infinity he’s going to destroy Alphabetrium.

But that ooze-swamp put the kibosh on our spaceships.

M-Maybe we can pull it out and upgrade it using parts of the Numbers’ ship. Oh, the googas already did it. Wow, you guys work fast.

Scribble! Scribble!

Damn, it’s like the Glyph Jumper, but extreme.

[Woman speaking in Japanese]

The Glyph Jumper Extreme is rad! [Laughs]

We get it.

I was wrong to join him and wrong to leave you, Water-T. Infinity killed both our fathers.

Nuh-uh. I was there. Ceiling fell on him.

Ha!

Father!

That ceiling was poisoned. Oxygen-S planned Magma-Q’s assassination for months. All my life, I’ve served such negative numbers.

This kid I don’t know was right all along.

Finally!

It’s time for the Numbericons to rise and join us.

How can we make the Numbericons rise up against him?

We’ll inspire them.
