Question: What did Summer think "the Hole Club" was?
TLDR: she thought it meant they both had sex on an adventure, but that wasn't really Summer. BUT it was in that scene for an important reason anyway. Much longer answer under the cut 👇
She didn't think it was anything because that wasn't actually Summer, just another thing the Fear Hole was showing Morty in an effort to help him recognise his fear of the fact that Rick frequently puts Morty in inappropriate sexual situations, and nobody around him will step in to make it stop - that he relies on Rick alone to not cross the line, and Rick isn't reliable. You can tell from Mortys body language in that scene that Ricks behaviour and the Smiths reactions make him very uncomfortable, but it's obviously not til the end of the episode that he's ready to confront what he's being faced with - and even then he only actually loses his fear of it AFTER he's double checked it was only him in the Fear Hole, and so concludes (correctly or not) that being freaked out about all of the boundary crossing that happens between them is just him having some "fucked up psychological shit" to deal with, rather than an actual problem in reality.
The implication of the phrase "the Hole Club" is that Rick and Morty both had sex with someone(s?) on an adventure together, and deliberately leaves open the possibility that it might even have been with each other (or at least while they were both present) and NONE of the Smiths take real issue with how messed up that is. Or with the fact that they both apparently shit themselves. Both of which are (at this point in the episode, still fairly subtle) callbacks to two deeply inappropriate things that already actually happened in the show, and were ignored or minimised. Summer calling them "sluts" recalls them all "soul bonding" with the "slut dragons" together in ep 4x4, which Morty was horrified by but Summer didn't care about (she was actually more bothered that Rick "stealing" Balthromaw was a betrayal of Rick and Mortys close relationship), and the Fear Hole having Beth be the one that's mad they shit themselves is a callback to the end of Promortyus (4x7) when they thought they were gonna die in front of her from shitting an egg, but just shit themselves instead. i.e. the episode where Summer told them that their facehuggers (Steve and Bruce) made out and wanted to run away together - which may not have actually happened, in fairness, but, importantly, Morty has no way to know if it did or didn't - he just has to live with not knowing (which is true for a lot of things in his life, given that the mindblowers exist!).
It's very interesting too that the Fear Hole doesn't show us any reaction from Jerry in this scene, considering that he's the ONE character throughout the series that will point out when things are fucked up, despite ultimately never being able to do anything about it. We actually don't see anything from him at all apart from generic deference to Rick until after the Fear Hole's "Say you meet the love of your life" molonogue draws the clear comparison between Morty and Diane, which Morty internalises and blames himself for (because despite all of this, he very much does love Rick!), after which Jerry ALSO responds very badly to Morty being "not normal", at which point Morty starts to address his fears of being shunned for being a "freak" if he was open with people.
All three reactions taken together (Summer being congratulatory, Beth not paying attention, and Jerry being hysterical and disgusted) show just how profoundly isolated Morty believes he is irt his very worrying relationship with Rick. And what's worse, they do all draw from reality to a degree. Beth does ignore problems and frequently decides to interpret things in Ricks favour when she shouldn't, Summer is jealous of their relationship and assigns Morty an unrealistic level of agency within it, and Jerry does freak out about stuff in very unhelpful ways sometimes. And this episode shows us how Morty has noticed all these things and they have significantly added to his fear about his situation, and to his extreme reluctance to acknowledge it, even just to himself.
Funnily enough though, the audience already knows that if Morty were to actually ask for help from any of them... their real reactions may well be very different than he imagines (and so what the Fear Hole showed him).
Beth proves in 5x3 with Planetina that she is very capable of seeing when Mortys in danger from an older person taking advantage of him, and she doesn't blame him for any of it at all (even when he blames himself for loving her and running away with her!). When it comes down to it Beth just offers him comfort, and takes care of him. And while Summer is often jealous, she's also INCREDIBLY protective of Morty once she's recognised he's in danger, as we see especially clearly in 7x7 (among others). And although Jerry freaked out in 6x5 about the fortune cookie thing with his own mom, in 5x7 we see that although he's shaken, hes very supportive of Summer after everything she went through with Naruto when she finally talks to them about it, and in addition, unknown to Morty, he's also probably experienced sexual abuse himself (implied in 1x11, and also another time but I can't remember which ep), which gives him even more ground to be supportive if Morty ever told him about his fears.
So... that's what "the Hole Club" means. It's not an actual club, and it's not "proof" of anything, or some kind of confession, it's ambiguous, intentionally. Because Fear No Mort was the episode that brought the audience up to speed with Morty's side of the story. Because Morty doesn't know if he's "just crazy", or if things might really be that bad. And, as far as he knows... he has nobody to ask. So he ultimately decides that he's just nuts, that he must have been afraid of something he made up out of nowhere, and there's actually nothing to worry about. Which is a very interesting place for them to leave the audience at the end of a season that was all about how and why Rick and Morty so often end up ignoring things that do actually matter.

I don’t draw this pair often, but I like to imagine Cop’s attempts to arrest Miami to be a massive fail.
hazbin sona i made for my friend!
Emily (most likely) is not black
i see a lot of people criticizing that Emily has straight hair (btw black people can also have straight hair!!) when first of all, her hair was supposed to resemble feathers
and her va is Shoba Narayan, she's indian, and people in south asian people can have straight or wavy hair too
it's not because a character has dark skin that they are automatically black, there are other ethnicities
I would really like to see more interaction with Charlie and Emily (not a shipping thing, a storytelling thing).

honestly I'm probably overthinking this, but I think it's an interesting detail that in the Unmortricken episode during the whole "trap Saw box" shit we've got this shot of Evil Morty sort of disappointed/dismayed RIGHT as we've got our Morty Prime telling Rick to "take the shot".
Like he's got the sort of annoyed, sort of cast down look for a few seconds (because right after we have the "We both hate Rick Prime more than each other either way" thing) and I'm reading way too much into this, but it makes me think that he does give a shit about Morty, despite his Very Constant Denial.
I mean taking all aspects of the episode under consideration, we've got several scenes where it is heavily underlined that Evil Morty does not care about Rick C-137 nor Morty, even being blunt about it and telling everyone to fuck off or it won't end well.
It's not that I don't believe he wants to be left alone, he very pointedly does, Buttttt I think E!Morty does hold some form of "softness" or positive emotions towards Morty.
Looking at their characteristics in the episode, I know most of the other fans have noticed that our "main" Morty's character seemed to have regressed for the ep to more of s1/s2 behavior, making him look more "whiney" and weak in comparison to Evil Morty. I think it's to point out that if we Had our Morty's normal behavior from even previous episodes of season 7, we'd be able to see how SIMILAR both of them are now.
(I mean c'mon, I get you rushed his character a little, but to fuck it right back to season 1/2 during a significant mid season finale? You've gotta have a bigger reason for it.)
In either case, it's likely that we have an episode of Morty sub-consciously trying his hardest not to act like Evil Morty (That's why we got the development regression for an episode) as Evil Morty seemingly just acts like himself, merely underlining that he does not care.
"This didn't make us friends" okay??? Then why even wait for Prime Morty at all to join Rick in his beat down w Rick Prime? Don't get me wrong, Evil Morty won't suddenly develop attachment to him out of thin air, but imo he sees all the potential Prime Morty has yet is currently wasting it.
It's sort of a little nod to how insane it is of a parallel that Ricks can't fucking stand one another or themselves, immediately trying to one up the other or kill, as to how Mortys can co-exist peacefully and work together without any unhealthy character implements. (Fun fact: If you're into mortycest in one of the comics two Mortys sleep w each other. So we've got established selfcest in canon too if you're imagining and rolling Evil Morty's and Morty's relationship into a more romantic ball court.)
Another little detail I noticed, we have a moment where Rick shoots at Evil Morty again for funsies and I gotta say, the expressions are feeding into my overanalyzing brain . LIKE??? AM I SEEING THIS WRONG?
These two have GOT to have something cooking between them PLEASE.
