Quote from Lily in The Rough Patch
Marshall: You're right. Barney and Robin are miserable together, but they're too stubborn to admit it. Ted: So, we have to get them to break up. Marshall: How do we do that? We unleash the Kraken. Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, as you know, earlier that year, I'd learned that Lily had broken up not one, not two, but seven of my past relationships. [cut to Ted and Marshall approaching Lily as she drinks at the bar in MacLaren's:] Lily: Forget it. I'm retired. I'm out of the game. Marshall: But nobody's better than you. Lily: I'm telling you. I swore off that racket. I've gone legit. I'm a matchmaker now. Ted: Set me up with someone. Lily: Whoa! I'm just starting out.
