While talking about these sketches in his Instagram post, Justin wrote, “Characters from my failed 2007 fox pilot.” In these sketches, two scientists named Scientist John and Scientist Terry are having a conversation. Scientist John even had a speech bubble beside him that read, “we control the camera”. This speech bubble also dropped a major hint that it is similar to Rick’s jokes about breaking the fourth wall.

According to Justin Roiland, these drawings were from his Fox pilot Relative Insanity. According to a media portal’s report, Relative Insanity was produced by Jack Black and written by Justin. These two scientists played the role of the neighbours of a young man in his 20s who is juggling his personal life and his family’s antics. But this Roiland project never saw the daylight and was eventually dropped by 20th Century Fox TV. These throwback sketches have been uploaded days before the second half of Rick and Morty Season 4 premieres. The show is also guaranteed to have 60 more episodes after this premiere.
