Rick and Morty Season 9's episode 9 is a fun and entertaining watch, with a solid premise that explores the effects of eternal intoxication on Beth and Jerry. The episode benefits from a dual-pronged storyline, with Summer and Morty experiencing an intergalactic afluenza camp, while their parents enjoy their newfound freedom back home.
The Beth and Jerry storyline overshadows the Summer and Morty one, with the two stuffy dorks unwinding and finding themselves lost in a never-ending high. The episode uses Rick sparingly and effectively, allowing Beth and Jerry to shine on their own before they finally cave and call him for a rescue.
The episode has its share of laughs, with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie reference and a subplot with Rick transforming people into oversized carrots. The episode loses a bit of steam towards the end, but it's still an entertaining watch, with the entire Smith/Sanchez clan allowed to shine.
