While Rick and Morty’s Jerry has proven himself to be a useless coward who is way more of a liability than an asset when it comes to his involvement in cosmic adventures, he has a secret ability that actually makes him immortal—and it’s absolutely perfect.
Jerry is married to Beth, Rick’s daughter, and is Morty and Summer's father within Rick and Morty continuity. Rick is a brilliant scientist and his daughter, Beth, is a successful horse surgeon. Jerry is, for the most part, an irritating, spineless person who Rick absolutely can’t stand because he sees him as a living example of Beth’s wasted potential. Even when Jerry tries to be adventurous, his cowardly back-handedness ultimately shines through which was perfectly shown in Rick and Morty season 3 episode 5, “The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy." In that episode, Jerry is given a day of excitement courtesy of his father-in-law, but then he tries to have Rick killed because he sees him as a threat to his and Beth’s marriage. While that may seem like an example of Jerry sticking up for himself for once, he really only carried out the assassination attempt because he was being manipulated by a group of aliens who wanted to see Rick dead–and that is just one of the many times Jerry’s weak-willed nature has almost cost a member of his family their life.
