Episode 5, titled "Final DeSmithation," picks up with Rick and company enjoying dinner at a Panda Express. After their meals are finished, the family is given fortune cookies, with one in particular being relatively foul and implying that Jerry Smith (Chris Parnell) is going to have a stomach-churning experience with his own mother. This in itself throws Jerry into an absolute state of shock and horror, and although his family tells him to let it go, it only causes him to focus on the fortune even more so. In order to get to the bottom of things, both Rick and Jerry infiltrate a company called Fortune 500, which is the fictional company that produces said fortunes.
Upon their investigation of Fortune 500, Rick comes to the startling conclusion that this company can in fact manipulate fate and that he and Jerry will need to infiltrate their headquarters. Summoning a new outfit for himself and Jerry, they creep through this area while avoiding the incredible amount of security in place. At this point, Jerry and Rick notice approaching security guards, which causes Rick to activate one of his gadgets, which generates several symbols from the palm of his hand. Rick then selects one symbol, which looks like a stamp, that he then uses to target the wall and coat both himself and Jerry in a similar pattern, allowing them to hide from the guards.
