He despises Rick more than he does Neil; for example when Rick, Mike and Neil meet his mother at a bar in the episode "Boring", he calls both Neil and Mike his friends, but refers to Rick as "a complete bastard." This antagonistic relationship between Rick and Vyvyan makes them virtually inseparable, as the two spend by far more time together
