- DirectorAnthony ChunWesley ArcherNathan LitzStarsJustin RoilandChris ParnellSpencer GrammerRick turns himself into a pickle while Beth, Summer, and Morty go to family therapy.Fast paced and action packed. I wish the two plots didn't contrast as much though, as it makes the episode a little less cohesive, especially since the therapy plot has no payoff. 9/10
