morty smith (voiced by justin roiland) – rick's neurotic 14-year-old grandson who is frequently dragged into rick's misadventures. morty is a good kid but he is easily distressed. he is often reluctant to follow rick's plans, and he often ends up traumatized by the unorthodox and morally questionable methods rick uses to 'fix' situations. the main morty the episodes follow is referred to as the "mortiest morty" by rick due to his courage, which nearly every other morty lacks due to their main use being makeshift cloaking devices, in which "morty waves" cancel out a rick's "genius waves" (a concept morty takes offense to). in "the rickshank rickdemption", morty is angry at rick for abandoning them and convinces summer not to do so, and even comes close to killing rick when it appears that he is threatening summer's life, though in the end after rick returns home, morty is glad to have his grandfather back. however, in "the rickchurian mortydate", morty refuses to be at rick's side when he decides to leave and stays with his parents and summer. in "raising gazorpazorp" he accidentally impregnates an alien breeding robot, which gives birth to his half-alien son, mortimer smith jr. throughout the series, several characters mention that morty has a learning disability, and he often displays low self-esteem. despite this, he's shown to be intelligent and resourceful at times and as the series progresses he learns how to use many of rick's devices and even manipulates rick into taking jerry on an adventure. by the end of season three he displays an uncanny degree of common sense as well as a deep understanding of rick's twisted mind, as seen in "vindicators 3: the return of worldender". the character was inspired primarily by marty mcfly from "back to the future".
