Rick and Morty Compendium #5

In "Warriors of Mathematics vs. Rick the Science God (aka 'The Space Shake Saga')", Rick’s latest theft of a rogue universe’s science sparks a rift with Morty, who chooses to return to high school instead of joining another wild adventure. When a dimension of math-obsessed Goldenfolds invades C-137 to capture Rick—the chaotic embodiment of mad science—awkward Morty and his quiet classmate Noelle find themselves at the heart of a cross-dimensional standoff, forging an unlikely bond amid the chaos.

In "Make Love, Not Dimensional War!", Rick explains the Multiverse’s layered hierarchy of Ricks to Mr. Sanchez, from Genius Ricks to Feral ones, as he rallies a force of Normal Ricks to battle the Math Dimension’s Platinumfold and the Goldenfold Math Warriors. Amid the interdimensional chaos, Morty and Noelle quietly drift into a sweet, uncertain romance, their quiet moments standing in sharp contrast to the escalating war.

In "Gods of War War with Other War Gods," the Ricks of the Multiverse clash with their Goldenfold counterparts in a high-stakes battle that spirals out of control when movie director Quentin Tarangoldenfold—aka "Twothreefold"—abandons his role as the arbiter of chalk-written equations, unleashing the soul-eating god Uber-Rick. With chaos spreading across realities, "Normal Rick" Mr. Sanchez steps up, using wit and unexpected empathy to reach Uber-Rick’s core and dismantle him, then banishes the Goldenfolds—including Noelle—to the dead-god realm of Anti Hala. Morty, determined to bring Noelle back, sets his sights on a rescue mission.

In "Entering The Infinidog," mad billionaire tech-genius Glug Vronsky launches a high-stakes mission to capture Rick Sanchez, lured by a mix of obsession and loneliness after Morty’s departure to save Noelle from Anti Hala. Trapped aboard the bizarre, dog-shaped space station known as The Infinidog, a reluctant recruit must navigate Vronsky’s chaotic lab while wrestling with Rick’s voice in his head—no answers, just escalating absurdity.

In "That Friendship Has Sailed," Summer ventures to the bizarre, tail-devouring orbiting platform known as The Infinidog to rescue Morty, who’s being subjected to terrifying dental experiments, while Rick languishes in jail for refusing to be friends with the eccentric Glug Vronsky. With Morty’s erratic behavior hinting at a fractured mind and Vronsky offering a twisted deal involving a warped version of Noelle pulled from an AI universe, the line between loyalty and survival blurs.

When Summer’s sabotage sends the Infinidog—a sprawling, dog-shaped orbital platform and Glug Vronsky’s base—crashing to Earth, the resulting chaos leaves cities in ruins and minds reeling. As the story unfolds, we see how Vronsky’s genius was forged in isolation, and witness a rare, heartfelt moment when Rick helps Morty confront his schizophrenia. With the planet reeling and the god Nunzumel watching, the fallout from one catastrophic crash is just beginning.

In "Ragnarick," the mythic origins of the gods’ rule over humanity are revealed through a wild tale of accidental deicide, where a clumsy human with a stick unwittingly topples a god—ushering in an era of divine vulnerability. Now, with newly liberated and bizarre gods launching a crusade against Rick Sanchez, and Noelle—empowered by a deal with the trickster god Nunzumel—hunting Rick and Morty for abandoning her in Anti Hala, the stakes have never been more absurdly divine.

In eight hours, Morty Smith will die—so says a future Rick who crashes into the present-day Smith household with a dire warning. With time ticking down and chaos already in motion, the two Ricks must decide whether to save Morty or let the madness unfold.

In "Carry-Out of the Gods," the newly escaped gods from Anti Hala descend upon Earth, unleashing chaos as Nunzumel absorbs their power to become a near-omnipotent force bent on destroying Rick. With Noelle (as Noellezumel) and Morty sharing a rare moment of connection, they join forces to stop the invasion, while Beth tends to a wounded Godtaur and Rick teams up with Vultureperson in a desperate bid to turn the tide.

When Auntie Hala—ruler of Anti Hala, aunt to Nunzumel, and unexpected romantic partner to Vultureperson—crashes the showdown between Nunzumel and Vultureperson, the entire saga shifts course. With every major player—Rick, Morty, Noelle, Unclefold, Mr. Goldenfold, Platinumfold, and Vronsky—having failed their individual quests, they each decide to abandon their goals and build a new world from scratch. One by one, they all converge on The Gray Earth, drawn by the promise of a fresh start.

In "Just a Big Gray Marble!", Rick, Unclefold, and Nunzumel each race to claim the blank expanse of the Gray Earth for their own grand vision—science, math, or godhood—while their respective crews, including Morty, Summer, Beth, Noelle, Mr. Goldenfold, and even a transformed Vronsky, bear witness to the chaos. When Rick and Unclefold crash simultaneously, the planet slips into Nunzumel’s grasp, leaving the fate of the Gray Earth—and the crew—hanging in the balance.

In "Space Shakes and Societal Quakes," Rick and Unclefold infiltrate the cult-like society of The Gray Earth, where Nunzumel's autocratic rule has reshaped reality in his image. As the duo stirs unrest among the obedient populace, they set in motion a revolution that reshapes the world—only to find their new utopia of math and science crumbling under unexpected chaos.
