Among the pantheon of weird and wonderful characters in the Rick and Morty multiverse, few hold the same special place in the hearts of fans as Mr Poopy Butthole.

The long-time friend of the Smith family spent the show’s third season out of the spotlight with his wife and young child, while recuperating from a near-fatal gunshot wound. But he popped up (pooped up?) this week in a new Thanksgiving-themed short, and it is… surprisingly emotional.

The wordless two minute clip sees Poopy browsing through a photo album of precious memories, from his high school graduation to the overthrow of the Galactic Federation. Titled The Poop In My Pants, the short is kind of like the opening scene of Up, if it starred a weird phallic creature in a top hat.

It’s very good.
