Okokok picture the scene:

Morty coming out to his family as trans, he’s super nervous, shaking, terrified that Rick is going to start teasing him about it and not taking him seriously

He gathers everyone in the living room. He stammers out the words, almost near tears. Everyone is silent for a few moments, and then Rick stands up. He takes a few steps forward and Morty flinches, preparing for a cruel joke.

But Rick lifts up his shirt, showing two surgery scars, faded but still visible. He drops the shirt and takes a swig from his flask. “Thought you were special, huh kid?” He slurs, “Beth, take him shopping soon, okay? Boy can’t go out in public looking like that.”

And then he leaves. Morty almost cries again, happy tears. Summer asks if she can give him a haircut because she could totally give him, like, a new look. He says no.

Later on, Rick asks what he’d like to be called. “It was a brave thing you did there, Morty.” He says, “I wouldn’t have had the balls to just say it like that.”
“Aw, thanks, Rick,”
“Yeah, shut up. Come on, I know a reality where they sell binders real cheap.”
