There’s a lot of inherent value in normalizing taboos if only so we can talk more openly about them. The Netflix series is known for presenting abstract ideas like shame, anxiety, and hormones as monsters we can communicate with directly. There are moments of this episode that feel a little bit like Big Mouth in its exploration of shame related to masturbation in adolescents. Giving her a voice and gendering it as a female is a stroke of brilliance because it enhances the theme of male shame at play here. The sperm become enormous dragon monsters with horrible teeth and enough intelligence that they can build a trebuchet, understand language, and eventually develop enough machinery for the Sperm Queen to speak from an android body. The levels of catastrophe that ensue are on par with that time Rick made a love potion but the flu caused it to mutate enough to Cronenberg the entire planet. Rick’s device backfires because the DNA is all sorts of messed up. Morty gets that same look on his face we saw back in “Raising Gazorpazorp” when he saw an alien sex doll, and that led to him having an alien hybrid son.Īfter Morty spends a week “volunteering” at the hospital depositing his reproductive material, Rick conveniently winds up building a biochemical weapon to combat the “Chuds,” the cannibal horse people living underground.

Morty’s impatiently waiting to go to a movie when he notices a device called a “breeding mount” used to extract "reproductive material” from the horses. The episode starts out at the horse hospital where Beth works as a horse heart surgeon. When Morty takes an interest in Beth’s work, he has a selfish motive.
