Quote from Ted in Slapsgiving
Future Ted: [v.o.] But now, we were broken up,so when Marshall said... Marshall: But after the first year, I get a major pay raise. Future Ted: We just let it slide. You see, on the surface, Robin and I looked like we were doing great. But the truth is, trying to be friends with your ex is a lot harder than it looks. You can't be as candid as you used to be. [flashback to the apartment:] Ted: So then this hot intern leans over my desk, I can totally see she has a pierced... [Robin and Lily walk through the apartment] Brosnan. Pierce Brosnan is my favorite of all the bonds. [at MacLaren's:] Future Ted: But most importantly, you can never, ever be alone together. Barney: I gotta go. Marshall: I'm gonna go pay. Lily: Peeing. Ted: I'm gonna help Marshall pay. Robin: I'm gonna help Lily pee.
