Future Ted: [v.o.] But he kept on waiting. Until the summer of 2008 when I got engaged.
[flashback to a year and a half after the wedding:]
Marshall: So Ted's getting married, huh? Bet he'd love a gift from his old pal Marshall. Well, he can forget it.
Lily: We're getting them a gift.
Marshall: But Lily, this is the dream. The whole reason we wanted Ted to get married. So we could not give him a gift and he would know exactly how it feels.
Lily: Baby, I'm as pissed as you are, but we're getting them a gift. We have to.
Marshall: Fine. We'll get them a gift. A gift that'll send a message loud and clear. A gift-wrapping station. Oh, boy, this time he has to get it.
Future Ted: And not long after that, a package arrived.
[flashback to a month later:]
Marshall: Well, well, well, package from one Mr. Ted Mosby. It's a little late, but... What the balls is this?
Lily: It's a thank-you note for the gift-wrapping station.
[present:]
Future Ted: Which explains the face.
Lily: [angrily] Wedding gift.
