    I don’t want to give it away in the comments, so I’ll wait for someone else to explain it. Call it a little Turkey Day prank courtesy of Cartoon Network.

    I feel that it would have been better if Rick had walked out dressed as he did in the original music video, 80’s hair, shades, clothing and all.
