The Microverse Battery contains a miniature universe in which organic and intelligent life has developed. Rick introduced electricity to the miniature planet inside the Microverse in the form of kinetic devices which the inhabitants then use to power their homes and devices, and unknowingly, Rick's car. The people of this world consider Rick to be a benevolent alien, when in truth, he created them and is using them as oblivious slaves (with a few extra steps). Trouble occurs when a scientist in this miniature world, Zeep Xanflorp, invents his own Microverse Battery (which he calls a 'Miniverse') to provide his people with energy, thus making the kinetic devices Rick installed obsolete.
