Marshall Quote #896
Quote from Marshall in The Rebound Girl
Lily: We have an announcement.
[flashback to Lily and Marshall's apartment:]
Robin: So what you're saying is, if you're meant to move to Long Island, some sign from the universe will magically appear at your doorstep?
Future Ted: [v.o.] Now, kids, I don't think there was a knock on the door at that exact moment, but for the purposes of this story...
Clive: Hi, I'm Clive. I live upstairs from you. Is this your sign? [holds a for sale sign]
Marshall: I don't know, Clive. Is it?
Lily: Oh, did we leave that outside? Yeah, we're selling our house in Long Island.
Clive: Oh. Too bad you're not selling this place. I'd love to turn mine into a duplex. And I'd give you a really good price for it, because I am so rich.
[present:]
Robin: He did not say that.
Marshall: His shoes did.
Lily: Okay, the point is, we got the sign. We're moving to East Meadow.

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.
