History YMMV / RickAndMortyS1E5MeeseeksAndDestroy

-->'''Beth:''' The greatest love you can recieve is from yourself

-->'''Rick:''' ''(jokingly)'' You know, if somebody drops the soap, it's gonna land on our heads and crush our spines, Morty. You know, it'll be real easy to rape us after that.

* HilariousInHindsight: Beth says this to Summer after she goes on a date with Mr. Meeseeks

It's safe to say she [[ScrewYourself used this advice herself]] in [[Recap/RickAndMortyS6E3BethicTwinstinct a far later episode]].

* NightmareFuel: The AttemptedRape of Morty. Sentient jellybean or not, it's played so deadly straight that it's even scarier than if the rapist had been human.

*** Which loses a lot of humor when Morty almost got raped by Mr. Jellybean later in the episode.

* HarsherInHindsight: Morty's would-be rapist being the king of a kingdom (and two of his officials covering up his actions when they discover evidence of his molestations after his death to preserve his legacy) now comes off as prophetic in light of the sexual abuse allegations against major film mogul Harvey Weinstein, where he has been accused of harassing and raping women in Hollywood for ''decades'', and the ensuing "Weinstein effect", which uncovered even more occurrences of sexual harassment and abuse by not only producers and directors, but also actors, athletes, politicians, doctors, and many, many, more.

* WhatAnIdiot: Despite the Meeseeks ''clearly'' explaining to Jerry what he has to do, it isn't until the end of the episode that Jerry realizes he has to do all of what they're telling him at once.
--> '''Meeseeks:''' That's okay! Just try again and keep your head down!
--> '''Jerry:''' (angrily) Okay, well, which is it!? Square my shoulders or keep my head down!?

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped:
** A meta one: even though some people find BlackComedyRape jokes funny, the act of rape itself isn't funny in the slightest.
** The episode also spotlights authority's willingness to hide such atrocities committed by famous people to prevent bad publicity and morale.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: A more downplayed example as the scene where King Jellybean trying to horrifically rape Morty has some call-backs along with it being the main subject of TheStinger, but otherwise it barely impacts the episode.

* FountainOfMemes: Every single line that comes out of the Meeseeks' mouths. Not bad for a character who's only appeared in ''one episode'' so far.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: The Meeseeks quickly became one of the most popular character in the show thanks to their memorable catchphrases and goofy voices, so much so that the creators eventually decided to bring them back for season 3.
