Ted Quote #496

Quote from Ted in Shelter Island

Stella: You know, she's always trying to one-up me. I mean, I love her, but... there's a little part of me that kinda wishes this whole thing would just fall apart.
[later, Stella, Ted and Nora at dinner:]
Nora: I hate him. I hate him. I hate him! God, this steak is so good! Four days to go and he just runs off with the vitamin consultant from Whole Foods? I gave up makeup for him. I gave up showering for him. I gave up shaving my armpits for him.
Ted: Hard to imagine where it all went wrong.
Nora: And now it's so close to the wedding. There's like... bacon or something in this dipping sauce. I love it. I can't get any refunds. I'm gonna be out thousands of dollars.
Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, when you're in a relationship, you develop a kind of telepathy with your partner.
Stella: [telepathically] What do you think? We could help her out.
Ted: [telepathically] No, Stella, we should help her out. Let's pay for dinner.
Ted: [out loud] Nora. Don't worry. We got this.
Stella: That's right. We'll take over your wedding, pay you back for everything you spent. Ted and I will get
married this Sunday.
[Ted looks confused]
