Future Ted Quote #42

Quote from Future Ted in Best Prom Ever

[Marshall and Lily down the street]
Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, about eight months into Aunt Lily and Uncle Marshall's engagement, there occurred a game-changing emergency.
[twenty minutes earlier:]
Marshall: Van Smoot is available.
Lily: Oh, my God!
Future Ted: Van Smoot House was a gorgeous mansion right on the Hudson River. It had everything Marshall and Lily wanted for their wedding, but it was never available. And then, suddenly, it was.
Marshall: There was a cancellation two months from now.
Lily: You want to have our wedding in two months? No. It's impossible.
Marshall: It's Van Smoot, Lily. It's the dream!
Lily: No, there's just not enough time. There's no way... Oh! Mini-vomit.
Marshall: Okay, look, look, look. I know that it's sudden, but check it. If we don't take this, guess who's on their way with a deposit check.
Lily: Todd and Valerie?
[Another couple is running down the street]
Future Ted: When you're planning a wedding, there's always one couple with similar taste that seems to be one step ahead of you. Todd and Valerie were that couple.
Marshall: We got to make a decision. Todd and Valerie are in motion. Van Smoot!
Lily: Oh! Kids, color! [runs off]

Lily: All right, what do you think?
Barney: Horrible.
Lily: You're gonna make such a great dad.
Barney: You look so classy and nice. You're going to stick out like a sore thumb. Have you seen how the kids are dressing these days, with the Ashlee and the Lindsay and the Paris? They all dress like strippers. It's go ho or go home.

Barney: [coughs, speaks clearly] Lesbian.
Robin: The cough is supposed to cover the "lesbian."
Barney: No, I'm trying to start a thing where the cough is separate.

Quote from Marshall

Lily: Look, I- I can't sign off on a band I've never even seen. We- We don't even know if they can play our song. They're... they're going to have to come over here and audition.
