- —Riq IV's final words
Biography
In "Close Rick-Counters of the Rick Kind", Riq IV appears alongside his fellow council-members, Rick Prime, Maximums Rickimus, Quantum Rick, Zeta Alpha Rick, and Ricktiminus Sancheziminius, accusing Rick C-137 for the murder of 37 alternate Ricks, including The Scientist Formerly Known as Rick. Riq IV sentenced Rick C-137 to the machine of unspeakable doom, to which he steals a portal gun and escapes from the Citadel.
After the real perpetrator, Evil Rick, was beaten to death by the group of enslaved Mortys, the Council of Ricks shows up to escort the Rick-less Mortys back to their respective dimensions. The Council takes C-137 Rick and Morty back to the Citadel, and officially apologize to Rick for accusing him of the murders. They even offer him a coupon for a free Morty, should anything ever happen to his, which Rick accepts while Morty's back is turned.
The Final Showdown
Riq IV is shot in the head by Rick.
In "The Rickshank Rickdemption", the Council of Ricks hold Morty and Summer captive after sending SEAL Team Ricks to assassinate Rick C-137. After Rick teleported the entire Citadel back into the middle of the Federation prison, a heated battle broke out between the two sides. Rick infiltrated the Council chamber and kills most of the Council of Ricks before ending up in a standoff with Riq IV, attempting to use Summer as a hostage. Rick tries to throw off Riq IV by stating that he didn't care about Summer's life. Morty intervened by shooting Rick with a fake gun, which gave Rick the opportunity to shoot Riq IV in the head.
