When Prime, the sentient personification of the Prime Universe, asks Rick to throw him a bachelor party, the revelry results in Prime's death. Parmy and the other universes turn on Rick and Morty who flee for their lives. Rick's solution: Merge all the universes together and start a total reboot. To do so, he needs a core energy sample from The Big Bang, which is on display under guard at the Planet Pluto Casino. Beth and Space Beth agree to pull off the heist for their dad. Jerry, who intended to renew his wedding vows to whichever Beth is his wife, tags along and almost gets them killed.
