“A Ricker Runs Through It”: Everything to Know About Rick and Morty Season 9, Episode 4

Sunday nights belong to Rick and Morty again, and episode 4 is bringing one of the season’s most intriguingly titled adventures yet. After the martial arts chaos of “Rick Fu Hustle,” Rick and Morty returns with an episode whose name alone has fans buzzing.

Episode 4, titled “A Ricker Runs Through It,” premieres on Sunday, June 14, 2026, at 11 PM ET / 8 PM PT on Adult Swim in the US. It’s the 85th episode of the series overall, and its title plays on the classic film A River Runs Through It — early hints suggest a fishing trip gone predictably sideways, with a teaser clip showing Beth catching Rick drinking in the kitchen.

Rick and Morty: Overview

What to Expect

While Adult Swim hasn’t released an official synopsis, the cryptic tagline — about forgetting passwords and “special characters, broh” — is classic Rick and Morty misdirection, often hiding something far more chaotic than it sounds. Given the title’s nod to a story about family, rivers, and reckoning, many fans expect this episode to dig into Rick’s paranoia and how it affects the rest of the family, a theme the show has explored memorably before (Pickle Rick, anyone?).

Where and When to Watch

US viewers can catch the episode live on Adult Swim Sunday night, with Hulu and HBO Max adding it about 24 hours later on Monday, June 15. International audiences, including UK viewers, can stream it via HBO Max starting June 15 as well. The show continues its reliable weekly Sunday release pattern through late July.
