‘Rick and Morty’ Season 3 Episode 2 Airdate, Plot Spoilers: Story May Involve Romance
The title for "Rick and Morty" Season 3 Episode 2 likely tells the possible storyline in the episode. "Rickmancing the Stone" may involve romance and a gemstone.
The creators have been referencing movies in their episode titles, which by far, have been telling of every episode's storyline. "The Rickshank Rickdemption" was the title in the Season 3 premiere, which aptly referred to "Shawshank Redemption" and saw Rick escape from the Galactic Federation prison. According to Blasting News, "Rick and Morty" Season 3 Episode 2, "Rickmancing the Stone," could refer to another classic film called "Romancing the Stone."
The 1984 film is an adventure and romance movie starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner. The plot involves Turner's journalist and Douglas' mercenary on a search for her sister. The pair embarks on a jungle adventure using a treasure map, which eventually leads them to a precious gem. Along the way, they fall in love. It is likely that the plot in "Rick and Morty" Season 3 Episode 2, "Rickmancing the Stone," features a gem and some kind of romance.
Of course, the romance could involve Morty, who as seen in the past episodes, easily falls for the opposite sex. Perhaps "Rick and Morty" Season 3 Episode 2 follows his adventure with his grandfather in a jungle planet involving a precious stone. In "Rickmancing the Stone," Rick plans to steal the gem only to have Morty get in his way because of a girl. Perhaps this girl lives on the same planet where Rick finds the gem.
According to Inverse, "Rick and Morty" Season 3 Episode 2 could also involve Rick and Morty on a rescue mission to save Summer. The pair travels to a jungle and tries to smuggle some exotic goods. "Rickmancing the Stone" could be a play to any of the plot points in "Romancing the Stone."
Regardless, the creators have remained mum about the possible storyline for "Rick and Morty" Season 3 Episode 2. So far, they have only confirmed that "Rickmancing the Stone" airs in the Summer, with fans speculating that it could come on June 27.
