Ted Quote #984
Quote from Ted in Challenge Accepted
Robin: You okay?
Ted: This morning I was talking to the foreman.
[flashback to Ted talking to the building site's foreman:]
Rod: Hey, hotshot.
Ted: You know, Rod, I'm loving that nickname, and I can tell it's totally affectionate, but I'd prefer Ted.
Rod: Yeah, but you're such a hotshot, I figured I'd just call you hotshot. Pick one. And make sure you like it. There's going to be 50,000 of these in your big, hotshot building, hotshot.
[present:]
Ted: 50,000 lightbulbs! What if this one's too bright? What if this one flickers and gives everyone a weird headache? Do you know how many people it takes to change 50,000 lightbulbs?
Barney: Are these people Irish, Polish, blondes? What are we dealing with here?

Quote from Future Ted
Ted: [to elderly woman] Excuse me. Can you give this to the blonde sitting alone in there and tell her Ted's really sorry? Also... Indirect sunlight. Don't overwater. Half a cup a week is more than enough.
[Ted, Robin and Barney watch as the woman enters the cafe, walks right past Zoey and gives the flower to a different blonde woman. As the woman smiles at Ted, he awkwardly waves back.]
Future Ted: [v.o.] And kids... that's how I met your mother. Psych. It was just some chick.
Quote from Barney
Ted: There's so many decisions to be made. What if I make all the wrong ones and my building just sucks?
Barney: Not possible. Your building is new. And I have one rule. New is always better.
Ted: You can't keep saying you have one rule if they're always different.
Barney: Ah, but "new is always better" is my oldest rule, which makes it the best.
Quote from Barney
Robin: [to Ted] Mr. Architect, big day for you tomorrow, huh?
Barney: Yeah, getting to stand next to me while I press the button. That is going to be legend... wait for it... dary adjacent. Legendary adjacent!
