"The Ricklantis Mixup" (also known as "Tales from the Citadel")[1] is the seventh episode of the third season of Rick and Morty, and the twenty-eighth episode of the series overall. It premiered on Adult Swim on September 10, 2017. It was written by Dan Guterman and Ryan Ridley, and directed by Dominic Polcino. In the episode, as the main Rick and Morty adventure offscreen to Atlantis, the focus is shifted towards the Citadel, a secret interdimensional society populated by numerous versions of Ricks and Mortys from different realities. The episode received critical acclaim and is considered by many "the best episode of the show", with approximately 2.4 million viewers when airing.[2][3] A stand-alone sequel to the first season episode "Close Rick-counters of the Rick Kind", its narrative was continued in the fifth season finale "Rickmurai Jack" and the seventh season episode "Unmortricken".
With the exception of the narration for a Simple Rick's commercial (voiced by Jeff B. Davis) and a single line from a young Beth Sanchez (voiced by Sarah Chalke), this episode was entirely voiced by Justin Roiland as the various Ricks and Mortys.
