Last week’s “Night Family” provided autumn chills as the Smiths exploited a device called the Somnambuliser that put their unconscious selves to work, leaving them with all their boring daytime chores – like exercising and washing the dishes.
Next up from series creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland is “Final DeSmithination”, in which a restaurant fortune cookie predicts a dire fate for Rick’s son-in-law Jerry. Expect a sci-fi comedy take on the supernatural slasher movie Final Destination – and some Sailor Moon shoutouts for good measure.
So, keep reading as we explain how to watch Rick and Morty season 6 episode 5 online, from anywhere in the world.

How to watch Rick and Morty season 6 episode 5 FREE
If you're in the UK, then catching new episodes of season 6 will be an absolute breeze. Episode 5 will air in the UK on Monday, October 3, and it's absolutely free thanks to E4.
This means Rick and Morty season 6 will be free to stream on-demand too (for those with a valid TV license) on the channel's All 4 service - just make sure you have a valid TV license. Away from home?
Use a VPN to watch All4 from abroad.
Rick and Morty episodes are first aired at the same time as in the US. So, while that's 11pm ET, it's a slightly less convenient 4am BST when they land in the UK. Thankfully episodes will be available to watch at your convenience on-demand on All4 after they've been broadcast.
If you’d rather catch it again on TV, episodes will also be shown every Sunday at 10pm BST.
