Robin: Ted, everyone has baggage, you just gotta look past it.
Ted: Really? 'Cause the last time I looked past a girl's baggage, that baggage belonged to a girl named Stella, and... Oh, I'm drawing a blank here. How did that work out again?
Future Ted: [v.o.] Here's how it worked out. I asked her to marry me, she said yes. We were happy. But then the day of the wedding, her karate instructor ex-boyfriend, Tony Grafanello, showed up, declared his love for her, and Stella ran off with him to California, leaving me utterly and completely heartbroken.
