Robin Quote #416
Quote from Robin in The Rough Patch
Ted: I never thought I'd be saying this tonight, but to Barney and Robin, the happy couple.
Future Ted: [v.o.] That was the moment we learned that relationships take hard work, but eventually, everything will work out.
Lily: Hey.
Robin: Hey.
Lily: Where's Barney?
Robin: Uh... We broke up.
Future Ted: [v.o.] And that was the moment we unlearned that other lesson we had just learned a few seconds earlier. You see, earlier that night, when Lily thought Barney and Robin had spotted her, this is what they really saw.
Barney: Why do that fat guy and old lady keep... Oh, my God. That's us.
Robin: Look at us. Did we always look this awful?
Barney: Robin, I'm not happy. I mean, I wish I was. Nothing would make me happier than being happy, but I'm not.
Robin: But what are we doing wrong? We love each other. I mean, if this doesn't work, what will? We're so similar.
Barney: We both like scotch. We're both awesome.
Robin: You know, maybe that's it. Maybe there's just too much awesome here.
Barney: Exactly. Two awesomes cancel each other out. I'm tired of being canceled out.
Robin: Me, too. Are we breaking up?
Barney: I think so. Aw, crap. Now comes the next part, the part where you and I can't go back to being friends.
Robin: Well, maybe this isn't a breakup. Maybe this is two friends getting back together.

Quote from Barney
[As Ted watches the pornographic movie "Archisexture", from Barney's collection:]
Woman: [on tape] Archisexture...
Barney: [on tape] Hello, Ted. If you're watching this tape, and I knew you'd pick this one, then you are now in possession of my porn. This can only mean one of two things, either I'm dead, or I'm in a committed relationship. If I'm dead, I want you to honor my memory by taking my body to The Hamptons and recreating Weekend at Bernie's. I wanna dance, I wanna have sex with a girl and I wanna go fishing. If, on the other hand, I'm in a committed relationship, then, as your best friend, I have only one request. Please, for the love of God, get me out of it!
Quote from Barney
[flashback to Barney and Robin fighting the "Canadian-American war":]
Barney: Thank God that song's over. Who the hell was that old lady singing?
Robin: Okay, you know that Neil Young is my favorite musician.
Barney: Right. Now was that the same old lady who played Archie Bunker's wife in All in the Family, or just a sound-alike?
Robin: Neil Young is a Canadian treasure. Do not make fun of Neil Young.
Barney: Robin, I would never make fun of a defenseless, old lady with vocal cord paralysis. Ever.
Quote from Robin
Alan Thicke: Well, Robin, I'm glad we could catch up.
Robin: Yeah. Let's do it again soon.
Lily: I love that you guys are still friends so long after you did that music video.
Robin: Yeah.
Alan Thicke: The music... Oh, the Sandcastles video. Yes, yes. We did that together, too.
Barney: What do you mean "too"?
Alan Thicke: Well, we had this failed Canadian TV variety show. That was so embarrassing. Imagine what would happen if anybody ever got their hands on that?
Robin: Oh, you.
