The Kaivac is basically the dumbest thing ever. It’s a dune buggy with a water cannon mounted on the back but it’s not really a water cannon.
It shoots a proprietary detergent we haven’t thought of a name for yet.
But the name needs to be really fucking stupid.
The idea behind the Kaivac storyline is that Rick wants us to use the Kaivac (for reasons we haven’t really hammered out yet).
It is based on the real Kaivac, which is a piece of commercial cleaning equipment that does nothing except make your job way harder and stickier.
The mimicry gimmick we keep dreaming up needs to connect to the Kaivac subplot so here’s the plan.
Rick spent a shitload of money on the Kaivac and needs to get his money’s worth (or maybe something else, but Rick needs to want us to use the Kaivac and we don’t want to use it because it sucks ass and just makes stuff sticky and so you have to clean up after the Kaivac).
Rick has some kind of supernatural being in his employ and they mimic me and Reid as a means of spying on us and making sure we’re using the Kaivac.
Reid suggests a lot of cool, spacey ways that the Kaivac could suck.
Instead of wheels, the Kaivac could be some kind of hover contraption but it hovers very slowly or maybe even tips over, spilling the proprietary detergent everywhere.
It’s too large to fit through doorways so you constantly have to take the entire thing apart to fit it into a new room and then put it back together.
These are great.
These are really funny.
Reid wants to think of a really entertaining reason why Rick is hell bent on us using the Kaivac.
If you are reading this and can think of a funny reason why Rick could potentially want us, a couple of space janitors, to use a shitty piece of equipment that makes everything sticky, please say so in the comments.
