Future Ted: [v.o.] And sure enough, by session seven, she saw me in a whole new light.
Stella: Okay, I'm about to break my big rule here.
Ted: Break it.
Stella: Okay. Abby goes bowling with her church group every Wednesday nights and she really wanted to invite you, but she's too shy.
Ted: Abby is...?
Stella: My receptionist. You really made quite an impression on her with the coffee the other day. I mean, she has really not stopped talking about you.
Ted: Oh, Abby. I thought you said "Alan."
Stella: But you just said, "Abby is...?"
Ted: Right. Right, I thought I said "Alan."
Stella: Who's Alan?
Ted: Who's Abby?
Stella: My receptionist.
Ted: Exactly.
