Rick's free hand lifted itself of it's own accord and pinched the bridge of his nose, his eyes closing in frustration as he concentrated and muttered something about sloppy work. After a moment he opened his eyes begrudgingly.

[b]"I'm Rick from dimension D-217 Morty, I'm your replacement Rick. L-Look, this isn't easy for anybody Morty."[/b]

Rick put his modified gameboy on the table and waved his arms enthusiastically, his icecream cone dripping a little onto the kitchen floor.

[b]"B-but look, I wanna make it up to you Morty, I wanna- I wanna set things right because what happened to you was shitty Morty, so how about you give me a chance and we go on an adventure, right now Morty, just you and me, Rick and Morty, huh? What do you say Morty?"[/b]

Rick almost seemed sincere, maybe part of him was. There were very few ways to find out given the circumstances.
