evil Morticia

However, despite his willingness to use, torture and kill his other selves to further his plans, he did seem to at least partially want to make things better for Mortys on the Citadel by closing the school that educates Mortys on how to be sidekicks for Ricks and even free Cop Rick, who "went soft" and seemingly came to detest the mistreatment of Mortys. He also simply incarcerated additional Mortys he and Evil Rick captured instead of killing them (though this was most likely to use them as spares in case the tortured Mortys hiding his presence from the Council of Ricks died from the extreme torture). He also surprisingly teamed up with C-137 and Morty Prime when Rick's attempt to find Rick Prime disturbed his peace outside the Finite Curve, instead of simply killing them. It's also implied that Evil Morty suffers from PTSD from killing so many Ricks as he understood how Rick C-137's revenge against Rick Prime felt empty as all paths of vengeance feel in the end.

In his partnership with Rick C-137, Evil Morty seemed to enjoy being the dominant party in the Rick/Morty relationship and that the relationship gave him an opportunity to work with someone on relatively equal footing intelligence and competence wise. Conversely he had a large superiority complex towards his Prime self, viewing him as "less than nothing". Rick C-137 and Morty Prime however suspected that this was a cover for Evil Morty's obsession with Rick and that the relationship was "real" to Evil Morty while Rick had only ever seen it as blackmail.Regarding his relationship with his other family members, Evil Morty appears to not have any forms of attachment to them, as seen when he had no qualms in taking a version of them hostage, and threaten to erase their counterparts from the entire Multiverse. Rick also revealed that Evil Morty would not risk destroying himself with the Omega device, showing great self-preservation.

When "Evil Rick" (actually Evil Morty controlling his form) noticed Rick C-137 crying over his memories, he taunts him by saying that Ricks don't care about Mortys. This suggests Evil Morty believes all Ricks treat their Mortys like disposable and replaceable objects, which is what drove him to hate other Ricks. In "Rickmurai Jack" he repeats this, believing and even justifying that Mortys are only bred by Ricks for camouflage and to feel superior, justifying this by showing how Ricks continuously force infinite Jerrys and Beths to be together and create endless Morty clones from their offspring. However, after working with the series' main Rick directly in "Unmortricken", he acknowledges that Rick C-137 is different from the other Ricks, though he mainly views that as something he could use in the future rather than a virtue.

He also acknowledges his evil nature by laughing off his actions in potentially destroying the multiverse and killing trillions. He also states that he is called evil because he is the only Morty to be sick of Rick’s horrible actions and behavior on a permanent basis, unlike Morty Prime who ends up always forgiving Rick C-137.

Evil Morty, as his name would imply, is cold, ruthless, manipulative, sadistic, cunning, and exceptionally intelligent—almost mirroring most Ricks and even exceeding them at times; the difference is that Evil Morty doesn't really boast about his intelligence and usually does what he does to complete his goal of escaping the Central Finite Curve. As shown in "Unmortricken", he was once like any other Morty, only he was finally pushed over the edge by Rick's mistreatment, leading him to develop an intense hatred of all Ricks. Surprisingly, he also seems to hold a disdain, or at the very least a lack of empathy, for Mortys due to seeing them as unwaveringly subservient to Ricks.

Unlike other Mortys, Evil Morty speaks in a serious, monotone voice, and lacks a stutter in his speech. Evil Morty's ability to control Evil Rick and become a president shows that, in terms of logical intelligence (as opposed to emotional intelligence), he is much smarter than the average Morty. Ultimately, he outplays even Rick C-137 and breaks through the Finite Curve.

Evil Morty looks identical to most Mortys, except that he wears a black eye patch on his right eye as seen in "Close Rick-Counters of the Rick Kind", and, "Unmortricken".

Introducing himself as a candidate in "The Ricklantis Mixup", he wears a grey suit, white dress shirt, and blue tie and as president of the Ricks' citadel, he is dressed in a black suit with a red tie.

In "Never Ricking Morty", a version of Evil Morty is seen in a potential story created by the Story Train. He is seen with his trademark eyepatch, but also has a cybernetic arm, a large red cape with a matching glove on his left hand and some sort of trident.

In "Rickmurai Jack", he wears a short sleeve black shirt with a logo on it and long black pants then later a yellow and black spacesuit.

Evil Morty returns in "There's Something About Morty", where it is revealed he has been blackmailing Rick C-137 into helping him defend the Central Finite Curve from various threats, by rebuilding the Omega Device and rigging it with a dead man's switch to wipe out Rick, Beth, Summer and Jerry should he be harmed. At one point during their partnership, Rick shows Evil Morty some of his time travel technology, prompting Evil Morty to make his own Time Stopper.

When the Collective approaches the Curve, Evil Morty calls on Rick again, only for Morty Prime to find out about the arrangement and join the adventure. After the Collective has been defeated, the three go to a diner where Evil Morty mocks his Prime self while Rick goes to the bathroom. Confident in his superiority, Evil Morty allows the two to depart until the next adventure and heads back to his base, only to find it destroyed with the Omega Device's blueprints deleted and his number blocked by Rick, Rick having taken advantage of Evil Morty's confidence to use the Omega Device on its own blueprints. Evil Morty eventually tracks Rick and Morty down to a Bunker Dimension where he engages in a protracted fight against Rick that shatters his force field and empties his arsenal. Evil Morty then tries to take control of Rick's arsenal but is overpowered by the rest of the Smith family, prompting him to activate his Time Stopper. Before Evil Morty can take advantage of this, he, as Rick predicted, is arrested by the Time Cops. After Rick apologizes for Morty "making it weird", Evil Morty is sent to time jail.

They arrive at Rick Prime's lair, and Evil Morty teams up with the two to defeat Rick Prime, at one point swapping clothes with Morty and feigning a "reunion" between Rick Prime and Morty, who is technically his real grandson, before using his resources to incapacitate Rick Prime. Dragging him into another room, he conducts a brain scan and downloads the schematics for the Omega Device. Rick Prime, impressed by Evil Morty's intelligence, suggests they could become partners like Batman and Robin. Evil Morty retorts he does not need a "Robin" before pulling Rick's body in, reviving him, and offering a chance to kill Rick Prime. After shutting down the Omega Device, he comments on Rick's dissatisfaction at getting revenge, before warning him and Morty not to bother him again by pointing out he now has the power to kill Rick across every dimension if he so chooses. When Morty points out he could just do it anyway, Evil Morty replies that actually using the Omega Device would cause him more headaches when he just wants to be left alone. He begrudgingly admits, having gotten the chance to work with him, that Rick has proven himself different from other Ricks. He muses he could find that useful one day, though he reiterates his warning that they not come after him as he leaves.

In "Unmortricken", Evil Morty continues on adventures beyond the Central Finite Curve, gathering resources that will allow him to live a peaceful life in his space mansion. Unfortunately, his peaceful existence is disturbed due to Rick and Morty messing with dimensions within the Central Finite Curve in a bid to track down Rick Prime. Annoyed, Evil Morty confronts the two and gives Rick a tip to speed up the process, but is ultimately dragged into a Rick and Morty adventure when they are teleported into a prison set up by Rick Prime. Despite Morty's own objections, Evil Morty and Rick team up to survive the prison, using their combined knowledge and skillset to outsmart Rick Prime's traps, and cooperatively hacking their portal guns to facilitate a joint escape. In the process, they learn that Rick Prime developed a weapon called the Omega Device that is capable of killing people across infinity. After their escape, Rick runs off to get his revenge on Rick Prime. Evil Morty elects to follow, knowing the Omega Device is too dangerous to allow to exist, and convinces Morty to join by advising him that Rick will not handle succeeding in his revenge well.

Evil Morty activates his Dimensional Drive protocol, powering it with the blood of Operation Phoenix clones to create an opening in the Central Finite Curve. The Citadel starts to break apart and Evil Morty offers Morty a chance to escape with him. Rick tells Morty it's a better deal than staying, but Morty chooses to remain with Rick. It is soon revealed that Evil Morty anticipated this and revealed the only thing on the ship besides the seat is a toilet. As Rick and Morty flee the chamber together, Evil Morty gets into his small spaceship. He flies through the opening in the Central Finite Curve and uses his own portal gun, one filled with a unique golden fluid.

In "Solaricks", it is shown Evil Morty's plan included destroying travel with Rick's model of portal gun. However, Rick C-137 wrote off the idea of taking Evil Morty seriously, claiming that he acted like he was quitting social media.

In "Rickmurai Jack", Evil Morty invites Rick C-137 and Morty to have dinner with him. He asks Rick to tell him how to bring down the Central Finite Curve, but Rick refuses. He implies to Morty that Rick C-137 helped create the Citadel, and says it's a shame that Rick won't help. Despite this, he should have what he needs anyway; Rick's brain was scanned during the appetizers (he had kept previous scans taken by Evil Rick in "Close Rick-counters of the Rick Kind"). Just to make sure, he checks Rick's memories on the brain-scanning device planted in the dining room. Morty apologizes to Rick for bringing him to the Citadel. Evil Morty expresses disdain for Morty's sell-out nature, but says that it would be pointless to hate him for it; Mortys are "bred" by the Citadel for their forgiveness. The Citadel has become a self-perpetuating market for Mortys, with Citadel Ricks manipulating events to ensure Jerrys and Beths end up together and creating endless Morty clones from their offspring.

Rick tries to shoot Evil Morty, but the shot is blocked by a force-shield; Evil Morty tells the guards to let Rick and Morty go. Rick opens a portal to leave, but after seeing Evil Morty's smug face realizes that it's a trap; Evil Morty has hacked his portal gun, again. After defeating the guards, Evil Morty tells Rick that he can't run from his past. Rick shoots at Evil Morty again, but the force-shield is still up. Evil Morty asks Rick why he thought the shield would be down the second time. Rick says it's just him expressing disapproval at his dialogue.

Rick C-137 and his Morty encounter Evil Morty again at the Citadel's Dimensional Drive as he is preparing to escape the Central Finite Curve. Evil Morty explains to Morty that Ricks see themselves as the underdogs, and in this way justify all of their heinous actions to themselves. They built the Central Finite Curve, a multidimensional wall that separates all the infinite universes where Rick isn't the smartest man alive.

Although Campaign Manager Morty tries to reveal Candidate Morty's true identity as Evil Morty to the authorities, he is executed by being ejected into space with the file. The now “President Morty” meets with Rick Leaders on a shadow council of Ricks, who tell him that they were the real power in the Citadel long before the Council of Ricks and that he'll have no real power. He asks for those who feel this way to raise their hands; he snaps his fingers and all the Ricks with raised hands are swiftly executed. The remaining two instantly back down and cooperate. Evil Morty then sets his plans into motion by eliminating the old school that partnered Mortys with Ricks, creating new Citadel police rules that allowed a Rick police officer to go free after killing his Morty partner, and turning himself into a dictator. He creates new banners and throws every Rick or Morty that opposed him out of the airlock. Evil Morty begins Dimensional Drive's construction to escape the Curve.

Evil Morty appears in "Never Ricking Morty", where he is in an anthology created by Story Lord. He is seen with his trademark eyepatch along with cyborg arm and a cape. He leads his army against Rick and Morty.

A year later, in "The Ricklantis Mixup," now going by the alias “Candidate Morty” (survived the Citadel battle in "The Rickshank Rickdemption" or was absent from the Citadel at that time), he secretly develops an alter-ego to become a presidential candidate in an election for the newly democratic Citadel of Ricks. His candidacy is considered a joke by the Ricks of the Citadel due to being a Morty who no one takes seriously, including his Campaign Manager Morty. But, after making a rousing speech about the class divide between the various Ricks and Mortys on the Citadel during the debate, he quickly earned praise and support. Shortly after the speech, he promptly fires Campaign Manager Morty.Campaign Manager Morty is depressed and drinking heavily in a bar when an Investigator Rick gives him a file revealing Candidate Morty's past as Eye Patch Morty and true nature as being the one to have been controlling "Evil Rick". Horrified at the truth, Campaign Manager Morty tries to assassinate Evil Morty to prevent him from winning the election and is quickly arrested. Unfortunately for him, Evil Morty survived the assassination attempt and won.

He first appears in "Close Rick-counters of the Rick Kind", where at first it appears he is simply a sidekick to Evil Rick, assisting him in killing twenty-seven known Ricks from various dimensions and capturing, torturing, and enslaving hundreds of Mortys to use them as cloaking devices to hide from the Citadel. The reveal that he was the one in control occurs at the episode's conclusion: a Rick officer conducting an autopsy on Evil Rick's corpse discovers the receiver, while Evil Morty in the Citadel quietly removes the eyepatch and smashes the transmitter under his foot so they can't track him down. Earlier Evil Morty hacked Rick C-137's portal gun and uploaded his own portal travel history and sent it to the Citadel authorities to frame C-137 so they could arrest him for killing and kidnapping of Ricks and Mortys. Then Rick C-137 escaped and found out the source of the hack to go to Evil Morty's controlled territory by getting caught. Evil Morty downloaded Rick C-137's brain and found out that he created the Central Finite Curve. To escape it he needed to get access to all the resources of the Citadel.

First moves
As revealed in "Unmortricken", Evil Morty was once another Morty, constantly mistreated and dragged on adventures. One day, he grew fed up with his Rick and got him blackout drunk while he engineered a device that would allow him to control Rick, to be hidden underneath a black eyepatch. He scalped him and attached the device to his brain. After that, Evil Morty teleported to the Morty Agency in the Citadel, killed the employees and erased himself from the database. Apparently, his original goal was to destroy the rule of Ricks. He built/occupied the base of operations on the planet Crustula and went about kidnapping Ricks and Mortys: Ricks for information about the Citadel and absorbing their knowledge and Mortys to use them as cloaking devices to hide the brain waves of his Rick from the Citadel. He eventually found out about the Central Finite Curve.
