‘Stuff’

Season 2, Episode 16 -  Aired February 19, 2007

Robin is uncomfortable when she finds out how much of the stuff in Ted's apartment was given to be him by his past girlfriends. Meanwhile, Barney puts on his own one-man-show to get revenge on Lily for making him see her terrible play.

Quote from Robin

Robin: Well, that's adorable, but from now on, when I walk into the apartment, here is what I will see.
[The phone booth turns into Tex's ex-girlfriend]
Ex-girlfriend #1: I'm Ted's college girlfriend. He made me 12 mix tapes. How many has he made you?
[The lamp turns into another of Ted's exes]
Ex-girlfriend #2: Ex-girlfriend 2: He calls you "sweetie pie"? He called me "sweetie pie."
[The pillow turns into another of Ted's ex-girlfriends]
Ex-girlfriend #3: I'm stupid, but my rack is bigger than yours.

Quote from Robin

Ted: Really? You can't look at a pillow without seeing my ex-girlfriend-- a pillow!
Robin: Yes, Ted, the fact that you still have that pillow is creepy and gross.
Ted: You're creepy and gross.
Robin: Your mom's creepy and gross.

Quote from Barney

Robin: Eight flights, of stairs. Who puts a theater up eight flights of stairs? What kind of building is this?
Barney: From the smell of it, I'm guessing a urine factory.

Quote from Barney

Man #1: I... am... Rage! [gong]
Woman: I... am Greed. [gong]
Lily: I am Rage... Envy! [gong]
Barney: I am outta here.

Quote from Barney

Lily: You know if you did a play, I would sit through the whole thing and I would compliment you on it afterwards.
Barney: Oh, really? You would?
Lily: Yes.
Barney: Bad move, Aldrin, bad move.

Quote from Ted

Robin: Oh, my God, you've been robbed!
Ted: Nope.
Robin: All that stuff was from old girlfriends? Don't you buy anything for yourself?
Ted: What can I say? Papa gets swag.

Quote from Robin

Ted: You know, at first I was really bummed about getting rid of all my stuff. But seeing how happy it makes you, totally worth it.
Robin: Mm, that's kind of how I feel when I begrudgingly have sex with you when I'm really tired.
Ted: Exactly. Sometimes you gotta take one for the team. Well, sit. Sit, yeah. So you never keep anything your ex-boyfriends gave you?
Robin: Nope. Well, except for my dogs.

Quote from Ted

Ted: So I had to get rid of everything from my past relationships because you don't keep things from your past relationships except, uh, where are your five dogs from? Oh, that's right: your past relationships.
Robin: What's your point, Ted?
Ted: Well, you know how you said you come over to my apartment, and all you can see are my ex-girlfriends?
Robin: What, so when you look at my dogs, all you see is my ex-boyfriends?
Ted: I do now.

Quote from Robin

Robin: That's ridiculous.
Ted: I thought you said you got rid of everything your ex-boyfriends gave you. Well, yeah, but not my dogs.
Ted: You said everything.
Robin: But not living things.
Ted: Well, tell that to the rare Bolivian cactus I threw away.
Robin: Things with a heartbeat can stay.

Quote from Ted

Ted: Just admit it. It was a little hypocritical of you to make me get rid of all my stuff.
Robin: Well, what do you want me to do, Ted? Get rid of my dogs?
[One of Robin's dogs turns into a man]
Man: Guess what position we did it in.
Ted: Yes. Yes, I want you to get rid of your dogs.
