Barney Quote #1549
Quote from Barney in The Rebound Girl
Ted: We're not gay.
Barney: Nope. Stuck with girls. I wish men could have children on their own, like sea horses.
Ted: Are you saying what I think you're saying?
Barney: They have a little pouch. They should be called sea kangaroos.
Ted: No, y-you want kids?
Barney: Maybe I've kind of lately been thinking about the whole wife and kids thing. Just minus the wife.
Ted: You could always go it alone. Like Mr. Drummond on Diff'rent Strokes.
Barney: Yeah, but that was the '80s, when you could just swing by any inner-city playground in your limo and scoop up some kids.
Ted: Mmm. Simpler times. I guess it's better to have someone in it with you anyway, you know? Lifetime partnership.
Barney: The only partnership in my life that has stood the test of time is this one. The sacred bond of man and bro.
Ted: Maybe we should start a family together. [both laugh]

Quote from Marshall
Future Ted: [v.o.] That's a funny story. Marshall was fed up with his job at GNB and was thinking about leaving it all behind, so he and Lily agreed he should wait for a sign from the universe to tell him what to do. Then one day...
[flashback: Marshall is on the street and sees a strange looking ambulance drive by. He notices a stop sign and looks across the road and sees an old fire house that's for sale:]
Marshall: Of course. It's so clear. It's been right there all along. I have to call Lily. Excuse me. Excuse me, sir. I'm sorry, but, um, can I please borrow your... Ernie Hudson?
Ernie Hudson: Yes.
Marshall: Can I borrow your phone?
Ernie Hudson: Who you gonna call?
[present:]
Robin: And did Marshall become a Ghostbuster?
Marshall: That firehouse is still for sale.
Lily: Even Ernie Hudson begged you not to go through with that.
Marshall: Ernie Hudson is a coward!
Lily: [gasps]
Quote from Robin
Robin: You guys are crazy. This place is enormous. I mean, look arou... [knocks over a third lamp] Have you never heard of overhead lighting?!
Quote from Lily
Future Ted: [v.o.] In the fall of 2011, Lily and Marshall received a surprising gift from Lily's grandparents: their house in Long Island. Lily and Marshall decided to sell it for one simple reason.
Lily: It's Long Island. I don't want to spend my Saturday in Long Island.
Marshall: I know, babe, but the realtor staged the place with fake furniture and she wants us to check it out before the open house.
Lily: All right. Can we at least do it on the fake bed?
Marshall: I'm embarrassed that you have to ask.
