Gus Ballenger this is hands down on the money I reckon mate legitimately a very good theory

bonzai wynter thanks means a lot 😃

Maybe HP lovecraft stuff? Im waiting for that... For 4 seasons....

or its telepathic.

Also they told not to go away but get out (of their heads or what?).

Wow OK that puts things into perspective I mean rick has done horrible things so yea

unity did it

Thats just it, Rick isn't that shaken that quickly. Rick is usually driven to hopelessness over time to long standing trauma and occasionally fixes it, the mind scan of the cat and his reaction was unnatural. It must've been unspeakably horrible.

@Xeno The Strange he's repeatedly ATTEMPTED it as well, but between his own failing out of drunken incompetence...and Morty's established proficiency at defusing Rick's EXPLOSIVE attempts at suicide... Rick is amazingly still here. One can only wonder how many OTHER Ricks have *SUCCEEDED* at killing themselves or destroying the entire species...

This could be a possible theory

This cat made me feel sick

With all respect. You are disgusting for coming up with all of this and I don't know if I should be interested or suicidal after reading this. Good job I guess

You own 3 minutes of my life, spoke and spoke and did not speak nothing

@@dll3409 good, you can't buy time back after all haha

I never noticed that aspect of the situation. Very interesting.

So true It also made him point a gun at himself

@@g_.06 yep, it was so disturbing Rick almost blew his own head off.

I like the theory that it showed Rick and Jerry being lovers, really the only way I could imagine Rick wanting to clear Jerry's mind of it while also being so disgusting, he considered suicide

i can't like ur comment its at 420

And also the nicest thing that Rick did for Jerry. “Someone will.”

Random Person the only time rick was nice to jerry.

TheJestor “I didn’t respect your marriage, I certainly didn’t do any favours and for what it’s worth, I will apologize to Beth for it when we get home.” What do you mean by only time?

That's honestly not a bad point. The other thing I could maybe see is if he was created intentionally with that purpose in mind, but I think I like your idea better. Sounds a lot more interesting to explore.

I'm thinking this guy is made for politics, I have been reading the comments for minutes and he still ain't said nothing important.

Rick and Jerry were also yelling “get out” so maybe they were telling him to get out of their heads

@@biscuitboy9861 Wow, great point! Matpat says @ 5:04 that they yell "go away" but they're actually yelling "get out". That's kind of a strange thing to say outdoors.

Another thing: Rick doesn't consider killing the cat, but turns the gun on himself.

Or what if it's a humongous creature who can literally mind control cats and talks like hes there

Although this is a good way to look at it, i think the whole "talking cat but mouth never moves" things is a Garfield reference. At least in older cartoons Garfield's mouth didnt move when he spoke. And almost no one was asking questions about why Garfield is not an ordinary cat. Jon can definitely hear and understand him, but looks like he's the only one (other than Oddie)

It was definitely horrific that narrows it down

Exactly he has to be some higher being trapped in a cat's body

This is the real theory.

Didnt episode 5 season 4 had time travel

@@lawyi4056 Thats the joke lol The creators said they would never use time travel because its been over done and contrived. :D

The answer is in the episode. You can literally hear what is happening in cat´s memory.

@@kubahavlicek1933 so what is it?

@@kubahavlicek1933 Elaborate.

@Comment War Ender Rick was disgusted by looking at common Purge so why coundn´t answer be that the cat is just brutal murder/torture/raping machine. Why should answer be something difficult.

Kuba havlíček because if you purchased the season pass through iTunes, the extras have commentary from all the writers. They clearly state, including Harmon, that the cat has no prior attachment & was just a fun meta commentary. There isn’t a definitive answer. If you’re such a super fan or the omnipotent being you think you are then direct to your attention to the people who wrote the show who have given an answer. Your assumptions are far off base & completely incorrect. Also, Rick wouldn’t be disgusted by that. Much doesn’t phase him & he was pro purge in the cat episode.

So simple.

@Miguel Messina thanx ima go check that one out, this was a long winded video for nothing.

@@kashrager3888 Thats Matpat a lot of the time...

Was it that time you killed 2 people in Ireland?

@@doofus33 who? Your mom?

In fairness, the Aristocats didn't need to explain why the animals talk for the same reason 101 Dalmatians didn't: They never spoke to the humans in the way the humans could understand. Granted, both those movies have bigger questions whose only answer is, "It's a Disney movie," like how Duchess could teach her kittens how to paint, sing, and play piano without Edgar or the heiress noticing or how Pongo and Perdy could bring home 84 more puppies covered in soot with no explanation as to where they came from, but that's besides the point. The cats meow and the dogs bark whenever people are the focal characters of the scene. In contrast, The Cat speaks directly to the humans in Rick and Morty. I think Roger and Anita would've definitely been more concerned if their dogs blatantly said, "Cruella definitely took our puppies," and the heiress would probably think she'd gone crazy had she heard Marie singing Scales and Arpeggios, and therein lies the difference. In all three cases it is firmly established that normal animals cannot speak human languages, making it a foregone conclusion that any situation counteracting that fact without an explanation would be questioned. I just realized that I wrote what amounts to a thesis paragraph in a UKposts comment section, but I'm posting this reply anyway because I spent too much time on this train of thought to just delete it.

Carlos Silva well in this case, curiosity kicked the cat, twice

but satisfaction brought it back.

Okay, but it's a memory scanner. What they saw was from the cat's point of view. And he was licking himself, like all cats do... … think about that...

Interesting but the cat was in the house where Jerry haves photo of his parents

that wouldnt explain y he talks tho...

Lol that would have been to Easy

You just broke my funny bone

Disgust is the Natural Reaction in some Situations. That's something a lot don't seem to know in this oh so modern Society. Tolerance is so Hyped that people actually came to think that everything and anything under all circumstances needs to be Tolerated. Yes, that's a Mindset. And it's spreading. Like a disease. I see so many Disgusting things, even on UKposts, but it's ok for UKposts as long as it's maked '18+' (or not even that!), and its more than Ok for Viewers. Viewers are often Fans of disgusting things, evidend by good Old (Messed up) UKposts.
