Marshall | So, when Lily and I get married, who's gonna get the apartment?
|
Ted | Oh, that's a tough one. You know who I think could handle a problem like that?
|
Marshall | Who?
|
Ted | Future Ted and Future Marshall.
|
Marshall | Totally. Let's let those guys handle it.
|
Ted | Dammit Past Ted
|
Barney | You blew it, dude. Now that Lily's there, it's a whole new dynamic. They're edging you out.
|
Ted | That's crazy. They're not edging me out. Marshall's my best friend.
|
Ted | One of my best friends. He wouldn't do that to me.
|
Barney | Just keep your eyes open. That's all I'm saying, Ted. Little things are gonna be changing around that apartment.
|
Robin | Come on, Barney, you're just being paranoid. OK, seriously, what is this girl's deal?
|
Barney | Sort of on a date with her.
|
Ted | What?
|
Barney | I found her online. I'm tired of the whole bar scene, the one-night hookups. I'm looking for a soul-mate, someone who I can love and cuddle, or so it says in my profile. (evil laugh) But this girl, she wants the same stuff and it's bumming me out. All right, Ted, call me from the hospital.
|
Ted | All right.
|
Robin | You're going to the hospital?
|
Ted | No, see, he's gonna go back over there and I'm gonna call him and he's gonna pretend that it's an emergency call from a family member at the hospital.
|
Robin | Oh, Lord, fake emergency? That is lamest, most pathetic cop-out in the book. I expect more from you, Barney.
|
Barney | Well, stay tuned, I'm working on some stuff. But in the meantime, wish me luck.
|
Robin | So, are you gonna talk to Marshall?
|
Ted | He's gonna want the apartment. I'm gonna want the apartment. It's gonna lead to an argument, so no.
|
Robin | Hm, that's real healthy. So, when a serious issue comes up, your response is just to avoid it.
|
Ted | I should really make this call.
|
Robin | Ooh, can I do it?
|
Barney | Hello? Robin: Hi there, sexy.
|
Barney | Hello, Aunt Kathy, what's up?
|
Robin | Oh, nothing. Just sitting here, thinking about you, hot stuff.
|
Barney | An accident? Well, is Uncle Rudy gonna be OK? Robin: Aunt Kathy's got an itch that only you can scratch, big boy.
|
Barney | Oh God! Why did he think he could build his own helicopter?
|
Robin | Come on, daddy, break me off a piece of that white chocolate.
|
Barney | Well, if he needs a transplant, he can have mine. I'll be right there.
|
Barney | See you guys later.
|
Ted | Ah, this'll be nice, the three of us living together. I think it's a good setup.
|
Ted | Man, this coffee's great. It's really great. Too great.
|
Ted | What happened to Shocky?
|
Ted | What's this? Lily: My coffeemaker from my apartment. Makes great coffee, right?
|
Ted | Yeah, definitely. I mean, so does Shocky.
|
Marshall | Really? I always thought Shocky's coffee tasted kinda rusty.
|
Ted | Yeah, no, it did. I mean, I kinda liked the rusty taste. I'm used to it. I don't know.
|
Marshall | Also Lily's coffeemaker doesn't, you know, shock you.
|
Ted | No. You gotta admit, that shock, wakes you up in the morning
|
Marshall | You know what else wakes you up in the morning? Coffee.
|
Ted | That's great. You're right. Roomies! I love it.
|
Ted | They're edging me out. They're totally edging me out. I didn't' believe it but you're right.
|
Barney | Told you. That Lily, she's a shrewd one.
|
Robin | Yeah, she got you a nice new coffeemaker. How dare she!
|
Ted | It's not just the coffeemaker.
|
Lily | Done. The painting's done.
|
Marshall | That is great.
|
Ted | Nice.
|
Marshall | Where do you wanna hang it?
|
Lily | I don't know. Um, over the piano?
|
Ted | Yeah, that would be a good place for it. Too bad the swords are there. We kinda love those swords.
|
Marshall | Well, those swords have been up there a long time.
|
Ted | I know, right? I'd really miss them too. So, maybe Marshall's room?
|
Lily | OK.
|
Ted | He was gonna take the swords down. Can you believe that?
|
Robin | Ted, why don't you just talk to him? He's your best friend.
|
Robin | One of your best friends. The point is, maybe it's time for some healthy communication.
|
Barney | Healthy communication? That's the worst idea ever. Look, you held off their first advance. That's good. Now it's time to counter-strike.
|
Ted | Yeah, well, what am I supposed to do?
|
Barney | You gotta mark your territory, and I don't mean missing the toilet. You gotta do something big.
|
Ted | What, like buy a new sofa?
|
Barney | Bigger.
|
Barney | Katie's here. OK, real quick, last night, epiphany! I realized what the world of dating needs. Ready? A lemon law.
|
Robin | A lemon law, like for cars.
|
Barney | Exactly. From the moment the date begins you have five minutes to decide whether you're going to commit to an entire evening. And if you don't, it's no hard feelings just good night, thanks for playing, see you never. Huh? Huh? The lemon law, it's gonna be a thing, possibly starting right now.
|
Barney | Hi Katie. Barney.
|
Katie | Hi, it's good to finally meet you.
|
Barney | Hm, yeah. Katie, you are about to be a part of history.
|
Barney (yelling to Katie as she leaves) | Tell your friends.
|
Barney (to Robin and Ted at other table) | It's gonna be a thing.
|
Lily | Man, Ted's been acting weird. He started labeling all his food. He even carved "Ted" into that block of cheese.
|
Marshall | Yeah. Well, now it's Ed's.
|
Lily | He's not cool with me moving in.
|
Marshall | No, that's not it. I mean, you basically lived here all along. Ted loves you.
|
Lily | So, what's he PMS'ing about?
|
Marshall | I don't know. But when he's ready to talk to me about it he'll come and talk to me about it.
|
Lily | Are you kidding? You guys never talk about anything.
|
Lily | He'll just let it fester under the surface until he does something big and passive-aggressive.
|
Marshall | You clearly don't know Ted.
|
Delivery guy | Delivery for Ted Mosby.
|
Marshall | Your English phone booth arrived.
|
Ted | Oh, awesome. It's great, right?
|
Marshall | Yeah, I guess. Just not sure if Lily's gonna like it.
|
Ted | Well, I like it, so I'm just gonna keep it right here, if that's cool.
|
Marshall | Of course, we all live here so we should all be able to have things the way we want them.
|
Ted | Exactly.
|
Marshall | Great
|
Marshall | Terrific.
|
Marshall | You like the phone booth. It stays. I like this painting so I'm just gonna hang it...right here on the wall.
|
Ted | Oh, so it's like that, is it?
|
Marshall | Bring, bring.
|
Marshall (in British accent) | Oh hello governor, oh it's like isn't it? Cheerio.
|
Marshall | Yeah, it's like that.
|
Ted | I want this apartment.
|
Marshall | Well, I want it too.
|
Girl #2 | You're a jerk.
|
Barney | No, I'm a visionary. Lemon law, it's gonna be a thing!
|
Robin | For the record, your little lemon law is a symbol of everything that's wrong with our no-attention span society.
