oh my god alex what if rick pretends not to go to therapy, but he shows up WHILE WEARING THE INVISIBILITY BELT so that the family isn't aware of his presence..... and the family does their own thing and talks about him.... and he is just sitting there. listening. just like the season 2 finale, when he was listening to them while underground....
YEAH YEAH YEAH WE’RE OUT HERE BIG BRAIN-

but but but. hear me out. i also think him using the invisibility belt provides an opportunity for morty to somehow realize this, stand up during the appointment, walk over to rick and kick him in the balls mid-session. powermove.
either rick will have to hold in his pained silence and repress his rage just so he doesn’t blow his cover, or he will reveal himself, lose his cool and go completely apeshit at morty, emphasizing the horrible things he commonly says to him and letting the whole family hear how badly morty gets degraded on a daily basis by this bastard man. either way he wins and he deserves it NSJDSKFJSFJSLKFASK
