Barney: [on the phone] Any-who, next day, I'm going into work. I run into Zoey.
[flashback to Barney with Zoey on the street:]
Barney: Hey, Zoey. That cousin of yours, Honey, yowsa! I must say, your family tree has got a couple of pretty big coconuts.
Zoey: Thanks.
Barney: Yeah, we had a great time last night. And then just hand stuff in the morning, so...
Zoey: Wait, she didn't go home with Ted?
Barney: Nope, he let me have her. I have to say, it was pretty noble of him. He fell on his sword so that she could fall on mine. I won't bore you with the details, but to summarize... [imitates bed springs]
[present:]
Barney: She hugged me. What was that all about?
Marcus: Zoey's in love with Ted.
Marshall: Marcus!
