General 1: Arrest them.
Rick: Son, you have a right to refuse that order, and I guarantee you're gonna die when you touch me. And there's no afterlife, everything just goes black. Don't do it. (flop)
Morty: Wha, Rick!
President: Ok, what was that?
Rick: Death.
President: What kind?
Rick: Instant.
President: There was no sound, he just died!
Rick: Yeah, terrifying. It's a terrifying thing to watch happen it's called a deterrent.
General 2: You couldn't just knock him out?
Rick: How is "knocking out" a deterrent? Everyone wants to be knocked out, nobody wants to be dead.
One of my favorite exchanges in the series, right next to the Psychiatrist/Rick scene in Pickle Rick.
