Rick and Morty Season 6 Episode 1 Ending: Do Rick and Morty Return to Dimension C-131?
The sixth season’s episode elegantly uncovers the tragic history of Rick and their relationship with Cronenberg Rick. This is why Rick begins the process of letting go, deciding to break off his search to retribute. In the final, Rick returns to Dimension C-131, which is the Smith family’s home, after the dimension they were originally in was destroyed. Additionally, this dimension has given characters like Beth, Jerry, and Summer to develop in their own ways and bring close to Rick and Morty despite coming from different dimensions of their origin.
In the show’s finale, Rick and Morty recollect Jerry from his first dimension and travel back to C-131. But they come across the dimension’s Jerry, who’s still wandering around and is carrying Mr. Frumbles, a cute-looking alien parasite. When Jerry accidentally releases Mr. Frumbles, the animal begins to devour reality.
The alien parasite soon takes over the entire globe forcing the Smith family to find an entirely new place to live in. At the end of the day, the Smith family, with the help of Rick and his wife, moves to a different dimension, where apparent natural reasons kill their doppelgangers. So the Smiths put their dead doppelgangers to rest in their backyards and begin new beginnings. But Rick vows to fix the portal system of travel.

Furthermore, Morty learning that Rick isn’t his father may trigger some unsettling emotions in the teenage girl in the future.

In the post-credit sequence, we see Cronenberg Rick meeting with that Dimension’s Jerry and killing Jerry when Jerry proposes to team up. Thus, it’s clear it is evident that Cronenberg Rick is most likely not doing anything right and may end up pursuing the Smiths.
