See, for me that was the appeal.
I feel like a lot of the audience is so media illiterate they didn't get that and instead treated it like some cinematic masterpiece with all these deep messages.
The bagel scene was silly nonsense completely on-par with your metaphor, but it was fun too. Anyone who thinks the bagel has all these deep layers beyond just a quippy scifi joke is the embodiment of the "To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty" copypasta lmao
