It’s no secret that there are a ton of ridiculously smart Rick and Morty jokes – the whole show is basically about a man so brilliant he’s virtually an omniscient god.

When Rick and Morty first premiered on Adult Swim, Rick’s daughter Beth was portrayed as a smart, no-nonsense mother who loves her family more than anything.
