| | '''Morty''' is a movie director ghost and the eighth boss encountered in ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]''. Unlike the other bosses, Morty does not need to be captured due to being the only friendly one, and is never directly fought prior to obtaining the elevator button from him. He instead has Luigi fight against various elements as part of a filming project. |
| '''Morty''' is a movie director ghost and the eighth boss encountered in ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]'' and the only optional boss ghost in the game. His name possibly comes from the Latin term ''mortis'' ("of death"). Unlike the other bosses, he does not need to be captured due to being the only passive one and is never directly fought prior to obtaining the [[elevator button]] from him. He instead has Luigi fight against a [[Goob]] dressed in a monster suit as part of a filming project. | |
| | |
| Morty plays a similar role to [[Madame Clairvoya]] from ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' as they are passive ghosts who show no hostility towards Luigi. Madame Clairvoya's status is required to be captured, however, in order to progress through the game.

| ==Appearance== | | ==Appearance== |
| Morty is a blue ghost slightly resembling a [[Goob]] with yellow eyes and mouth, as well as navy blue eyebrows, and is dressed in a dark blue sweater and cap. | | Morty is a blue ghost with yellow eyes and mouth, navy blue hair and eyebrows, and a slightly French accent. He wears a dark blue sweater and beret, and likes to carry around a large, red megaphone. |

| ==History==
| |
| Luigi finds Morty upset over his missing megaphone and attempts to hand it back to him. Morty is then overjoyed, although after noticing Luigi, he then notices that several of his features make him perfect for stardom before starting filming and demanding for a stage crew.
| |
| | |
| Morty is not fought, but rather filming the battle and gratefully commenting his two "actors" while filming. After Luigi beats the Godzilla-like ghost, Morty gives him the elevator button as a sign of gratitude before flying into his editing room.
| |
|
| |
|
| Morty can then be seen editing in the [[Editing Room]] and, if left alone for a short period of time, he then relaxes after finishing his movie. | | Luigi finds Morty fuming over a lost director speaker and attempts to hand it back to him. Morty is then overjoyed, although after noticing Luigi, he then notices that several of his features make him eligible to stardom before starting filming and demanding for a stage crew. |

| | As noted above, Morty is never directly fought. Instead, the player has to fight a ghost inside a dinosaur costume in a manner similar to Godzilla. The player has to bait the ghost into launching a colored (i.e. non-orange) blast and then direct it back at the monster, requiring three hits to reduce it to its basic blue ghost form, the latter two hits requiring [[Gooigi]]'s help. Afterwards, the player merely needs to suck in the 100 HP ghost. Afterwards, Morty expresses gratitude and leaves for the cutting room, although not before willingly giving Luigi the ninth floor button. However, when Luigi goes to put the elevator button back in the first time around, [[Polterkitty]] will swipe it. |
| As noted above, the player must instead fight a Goob inside a monster costume as part of Morty's new film, as opposed to just fighting Morty himself. The Goob attacks with [[fireball]]s from its mouth, either a barrage of small orange ones or a single large blue one. If it is too close to a building or Luigi, it can also swing its claws at them, destroying any hit buildings in the process. The player has to bait the Goob into launching its large blue fireballs and then repel it with the [[Poltergust G-00]] until it explodes in the monster's face. After the first hit, the Goob monster uses orange fireballs more frequently and replaces the blue fireball with a green one; when Luigi blows it back, the Goob retaliates with a stronger breath that requires [[Gooigi]]'s help to overcome. For the final hit, the Goob retaliates to the redirected fireball by blowing even harder than before, requiring the player to mash the A button to force the ball into the foe one last time. If successful, the monster costume is destroyed by the blast, leaving only a standard Goob for the player to defeat. Afterwards, Morty expresses gratitude to Luigi by willingly giving Luigi the elevator button that grants access to the [[Unnatural History Museum]] and collecting his film reels and leaving for the cutting room. However, when Luigi goes to put the elevator button back in, [[Polterkitty]] steals it, forcing a chase to get it back. | |
|
| |
|
| During the battle, if Morty thinks Luigi cannot perform alone, he recommends calling [[Gooigi]] (which Morty calls as Luigi's supporting actor) for help.
| | Luigi can go to Morty's editing room and capture him at any time, however capturing him while he is still editing will result in his movie becoming [[List of missable content|unable to view]]. When he is being sucked in, he'll do his picture pose with his hands. Unlike when capturing other boss ghosts, Luigi feels guilty about his actions, likely because Morty was friendly and willing to give Luigi the button he was holding. |

| Luigi can go to Morty's [[Editing Room]] and capture him at any time, however capturing him while he is still editing results in his film becoming [[Missable content|unable to view]]. Morty's editing is finished by the time Luigi retrieves the Unnatural History Museum's elevator button from Polterkitty. If he is done editing, Morty can be seen sitting on a chair in a relaxed pose, presumably sleeping. When he is being sucked in, he makes a sad pose and does his picture pose with his hands. Unlike when capturing other boss ghosts, Luigi expresses guilt about his actions (even more so if he is not allowed to finish his film), likely because Morty was friendly and willing to help him. | |

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *During [[List of Luigi's Mansion 3 pre-release and unused content|''Luigi's Mansion 3''{{'}}s development]], the developers considered making it impossible to capture Morty. This was changed after consideration that some players would want to capture every ghost.<ref name="Kotaku">Stephen Totillo (February 6, 2020).

| *While Morty is crying over his lost megaphone, if Luigi approaches him before returning his megaphone, he leans away from him, leaning left when he is on his right and vice versa, leaning back when he is in front of him and leaning forward if he walks behind him.
