Which episode is Rick and Morty season 3, episode 7?

Rick and Morty season 3, episode 7 is “The Ricklantis Mixup.” The episode follows several versions of Rick and Morty at the Citadel rather than focusing mainly on the show’s central family in their home dimension.

It first aired on September 10, 2017, and was directed by Dominic Polcino. Dan Guterman and Ryan Ridley wrote the episode, which is also known by the alternate title “Tales from the Citadel.” Its unusual structure presents multiple interlocking stories, including a class election, a police investigation, and the experiences of ordinary Mortys and Ricks living under the Citadel’s social hierarchy.

The episode is notable because it expands the series’ multiverse into a political and social setting. Different Ricks are no longer just alternate versions used for quick jokes; they occupy different jobs and positions, while Mortys confront inequality, prejudice, and limited expectations. The storyline involving a candidate named Morty and a campaign promising change becomes especially important to the show’s wider mythology.

The common mix-up is with “Pickle Rick,” which is season 3, episode 3, or “The ABC’s of Beth,” the following episode, season 3, episode 8.
