Mickey Quote #35
Quote from Mickey in The Magician's Code - Part One
Lily: Where the hell is Marshall?! I can't do this without Marshall!
Future Ted: [v.o.] Kids, sometimes the universe sends exactly what you ask for. Other times, it sends Lily's dad.
Lily: Oh...
Mickey: Remember the time you had your tonsils out?
Lily: Yeah, yeah. You scared the crap out of me.
Mickey: Yes, I did, didn't I? Oh, my. But do you remember what happened next?
[flashback:]
Mickey: And don't worry, Princess, if you permanently lose the ability to speak, we'll give you a chalkboard. You can hang it around your neck on a little string.
Young Lily: Nurse, I don't know who this strange man is.
Nurse: Security!
Mickey: What are you talking about? I'm your daddy. What do you mean... Hey, fellas, come on!
[present:]
Mickey: I woke up in a Dumpster of medical waste, and I couldn't have been prouder. Because, much like that dumpster, you had a lot of guts. And you've used that bravery every day of your life. With or without Marshall. You're having this baby.
Lily: Thanks, Dad. That story actually helped.
Mickey: Oh, good, I'm glad. And, you know, few women have vaginal tearing severe enough to need surgical
reconstruction...
Lily: Security!

‘The Magician's Code - Part One’ Quotes
Quote from Mickey
Lily: Damn it, Ted. I was okay with you e-mailing my aunt, my cousins, and your cousins, and the guy that Robin thought was Neil Young. But my father is the absolute worst person to have around in any sort of medical situation. When I was seven, I needed to have my tonsils out.
[flashback:]
Young Lily: Daddy, I'm scared.
Mickey: Aw, Princess, I would be too. I've researched this surgery. Anything can happen. You could bleed to death... You could have your jaw removed due to infection... And the anesthesia could suddenly just stop working, much like your mom's and my marriage. [laughs] You do know that we're getting a divor... Don't worry about it. We'll talk about it after the surgery.
Quote from Robin
Ted: Let's get you to the hospital.
Lily: Oh, I can't go yet. I talked to Dr. Sonya. They won't admit me until my contractions are four minutes apart.
Robin: Okay, well, if you don't make it in time, I have got you covered. When I was 13, my father caught me kissing a boy, so he sent me to our family's ranch for foaling season. Once you see a baby horse erupt through that birth canal, you stop even touching yourself. Anyway, I had skinny arms, so I got up there elbow deep. I lost this watch birthing Blacky...
Lily: Okay, stop it. I am not a farm animal. [grunts]
Robin: Oh, there we go. Easy girl. Sugar cube?
Quote from Barney
Barney: Okay, listen, I am going to get you to that hospital or die trying. And if I succeed, I ask only one thing in return. Let me choose your child's middle name because I have thought of the most awesome name of all time.
Marshall: What's the middle name?
Barney: Wait for it.
Marshall: I'm waiting.
Barney: Wait for it.
Marshall: I said I'm waiting.
Barney: Wait for it.
Marshall: What's the middle name?
Barney: No, the middle name is wait for it. Let's say the first name is - oh, I don't know - Barney. He'd be Barney Wait for It Eriksen. How awesome is that?
Marshall: That is... the coolest middle name of all time!
