Quote from The Captain in The Mermaid Theory
Ted: Hi, Captain. The Captain. Captain. The Captain: Ahoy, Ted! Excellent to see you. Ted: Ah, you, too. Uh, where's Zoey? The Captain: Well, I'm afraid she's feeling a little under the weather. Looks like it's just you, me and six hours in frigid international waters. Ted: Or we could stay on dry land, hang out with some... witnesses. The Captain: [laughs] You're a hoot. I've been looking forward to this. For a very long time. Well, anchors aweigh! Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, here's one thing I do remember. I was pretty sure I was going to die that night.
