Season 7 of Rick and Morty: Birdperson's Return and Character Development of Rick
Season 7 of Rick And Morty opened with an unexpected comeback of fan-favorite Birdperson. A big feature of the program, this surprising return challenged audience expectations and gave Rick's character growth a moving occasion.
Unexpected Forgiveness from Birdperson
Following Birdperson's revelation of Rick's secret knowledge about his daughter in season five, episode eight, "Rickternal Friendshine of the Spotless Mort," Rick and Birdperson had a spectacular falling out. This conflict had long-lasting effects and helped to shape the events of the last season. Birdperson shockingly forgives Rick in season 7's premiere, "How Poopy Got His Poop Back," though.
The Unexpected Turn
The episode's twist reveals Birdperson's weariness of hanging around with his daughter. This surprising change in character was the secret to Birdperson's pardon of Rick, therefore subverting audience expectations in a funny way. The scene emphasizes the ubiquitous difficulties in juggling personal needs with family responsibilities and offers an original viewpoint on the complexity of parenting.
Rick's Development and Harmonization
Though wounded, Rick's acceptance of Birdperson's emotions reveals a degree of self-awareness and maturity. This is a big change from the self-serving and manipulative quality viewers have come to know. A much-needed change in Rick's character journey, the episode gently shows that he has learnt to accept his pride to keep his friendships.
Premiere of Rick and Morty Season 7: A Step Forward
Although the premiere of Rick And Morty season 7 was not flawless, Birdperson's comeback and the evolution of Rick's character gave the show much-needed complexity. Though enjoyable, the significance of Birdperson's comeback and Rick's surprising development eclipsed Mr. Poopybutthole's funny and ridiculous plot. The premiere hinted at a possible change in the show, implying that Rick's character might develop still more in next episodes.
