Quote from Barney in Ten Sessions
Barney: Ted, do you know how long it takes a woman to decide whether or not she's going to sleep with a guy? 8.3 seconds. After that, her decision is made. She will not change her mind. Ted: That's ridiculous. Barney: Is it? Describe your first 8.3 seconds with Stella. [flashback to Ted in the waiting room:] Stella: Lower back butterfly tattoo, you're up. [Ted and a woman stand up at the same time]
