Quote from Barney in Platonish

Two people are only platonic if in the next 20 minutes, there is no chance of them hooking up. Truth is, I only know of one genuinely platonic relationship. Lily: You and me. Barney: Don't make me laugh, Lily. You want to hit this so hard. Seriously, she's playing footsies with me as l... Ow! No, I'm talking about Marshall and Robin. [v.o.] Marshall and Robin wouldn't hook up even if this happened. [fantasy, Lily runs into MacLaren's with a bomb strapped to her chest as Marshall and Robin talk:] Lily: Marshall! Robin! If you guys don't full-on make out in the next 20 minutes, they're gonna blow me up and everyone in this bar! Marshall: Oh, God, no. Anyone but Robin. Robin: I really don't want to do this. Lily: Guys, we have no time. Just do it! [19 minutes later:] Marshall: I'm sorry, baby. I just... I can't do it. Lily: Aw... [back:] Barney: And the only survivor was me, because I was upstairs banging Ted's mom. What? Get that blond girl's phone number? Challenge accepted.
