Storyline
Were you hoping for another episode of Interdimensional Cable? Well, you’re going to have to keep waiting, but this anthology episode packs in all the great elements of an Interdimensional Cable episode. Rick and Morty are stuck on a train full of people who have their own unique story about Rick. While stuck on the train, the only people without a Rick story are the “tickets please” guy and another evil source driving the anthology story.
