Episode Quotes |
| |
Lily: You know, Barney, for anyone else, this would be a new low but sadly for you, it’s just a new middle. | Ted: I feel like Richard Gere.
Mary: You’re not shy about your looks, are you? | Ted: Hey.
Robin: Hey. Mary seems nice. Have you kissed her yet? Or are you waiting until you are in a serious relationship with someone else? | Barney: That’s adorable Ted. You’re such a hayseed. The companionship business is the growth industry of the 21st century. You do realize that 1 out of every 8 adult women in America is a prostitute.
Marshall: Dude you just made that up.
Barney: Withdrawn.
Marshall: Lawyered!
Barney: (growls) | Barney: Do it! Come on Ted, do it! It's one of those things you have to do before you turn 30.
Ted: What? Sleep with a prostitute?
Barney: No, lose your virginity! What Up! | Mary: (Whispering to Ted) You know that scene in Empire when they lower that helmet onto Darth Vader’s head? (Pointing at Sandy Rivers) Do you think that is how Sandy puts his hair on in the morning? (laughs)
Ted: You just insulted someone I hate by referencing something that I love. Damn you just got even hotter. | Barney: Dude your views on professional fornicators are harshing my mellow. | Barney: Good day! (leaving)
Ted: (as Barney stands there, Ted starts laughing) You’re just waiting for me to say something so you can interrupt.
Barney: (As he stomps out, screaming) I SAID GOOD DAY! | Ted: Look, I shouldn’t go.
Marshall: You should definitely go, look, it’s a chance to show her you are still friends and that you support her.
Barney: Or it’s a chance to mess with her head by showing up with someone hotter, or even better, triple threat, hotter and bigger boobs!
Ted: That’s only two.
Barney: Count again! |

Cultural References |

Robin calls Ted's paralegal date, "Paralegally Blonde," a reference to the movie Legally Blonde. | Mary makes a crack about Sandy Rivers' hair being put on his head like Darth Vader's helmet in "Empire."
Mary was referring to a part of the original Star Wars trilogy "The Empire Strikes Back." | Ted refers to Robin's newsreporter date (Sandy Rivers) as "Edward R. Moron," a play on famed broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow. | Ted: I feel like Richard Gere.
This is a reference to the film Pretty Woman from 1990, where the character of Richard Gere dates a prostitute. | Sandy's reading of the headlines is a thinly veiled parody of NY1's same feature, called "In The Papers" with Pat Kiernan. | Mary the Paralegal says she works at the law firm "Douglas, O'Halloran and Stamp". These are the last names of the actors (Sarah Douglas, Jack O'Halloran, Terence Stamp) playing the three Kryptonite villains in Superman II. |
