Barney Quote #2028
Quote from Barney in The Rehearsal Dinner
Barney: Fine! Fine. You're right, Robin. Marriage isn't about playing crazy pranks. It isn't about telling long expertly crafted lies to cover those pranks...
Robin: How'd you get out of those handcuffs?
Barney: And hiring actors to play security guards. And spending exorbitant amounts of money on things like giant, fake laser tag signs. No, it's about honesty. Size six skate, right?
Robin: Yeah.
Barney: And in that spirit, I got to be honest. Every now and then, I am gonna lie to you. I just am. If it's in the interest of an amazing surprise, that is. You're gonna get bamboozled, hoodwinked. Heck, I'll just say it. You're gonna get snowed.
Robin: Why is it snowing in here?
Barney: Put on the skates. We gotta go.
Robin: Where? Where are we going?
Barney: To the rehearsal dinner, silly. Let's get this party started.
[Barney presses the "Let's get this party started button." The walls of the security guard's office lift up, to reveal a party on the ice rink.]
Robin: What?!
All: Surprise!
Robin: What- What is going on?
Barney: I know how much you wanted to be in Canada this weekend. So I brought Canada to you. Oh, and here's an autographed picture of Wayne Gretzky.
Robin: Thanks.
Barney: And this guy's not really a security guard.
