[2005:]
Barney: It's fine.
[jump to 2006:]
Barney: But it wasn't.
Marshall: It's fine.
[jump to 2007:]
Lily: But it wasn't.
Robin: It's fine.
[jump to the present day:]
Robin: But it wasn't.

Barney: Which brings us to step 5. The tipping point.

Robin: So you want to do something later?
Curt: Oh, so you're talking to me now?
Robin: What are you talking about?
Curt: I'm talking about last night. You said you'd call and you didn't. I missed you and I waited up, but you didn't call. That really hurts.
Robin: Oh, um, I'm sorry. I- I guess I just forgot.
Curt: I'm sorry, sweetie. I don't want to fight tonight. It's our first weekiversary.

Barney: Hey, Wendy, uh, do me a favor and send a glass of champagne to that pretty young girl over there.
Wendy: What?
Barney: Over there... [points to Wendy] You! Yu're the pretty young thing is what i meant. Champagne? Would you? On me.
Wendy: Oh, okay, thanks sweetie. [she kisses Barney]
Barney: Okay. All right.

Robin: God, i'm such an idiot.
Marshall: Yeah.
Robin: Curt "the Iron Man" Irons keeps leaving me love notes on Post-Its. On the teleprompter, on my desk, on the coffee-maker, on the jar of sugar packets next to the coffee-maker.
Lily: [reads a Post-It] "Here's some sugar for my sugar."
Robin: The Iron Man. Oh! [bangs head on table]
Marshall: I remember that.

Lily: Every time we step out the door, they're out there waiting for us. Sometimes, we'll send Ted out first as a scout. Nobody's there. Then we'll go out one second later, and there they are.
Marshall: It's freakin' supernatural. Are they ghosts? Can only we see them?
Lily: "Hey, neighbor!" "Hey, neighbor""Hey, neighbor." [bangs head on table]
Barney: I remember that.

Barney: How could you guys let me date Wendy the waitress?
Robin: Oh, you are kidding me.
Ted: What?!
Marshall: Don't kill the bar dude!
Lily: We said "don't do it!"

Barney: My own bar. I can't hit on women in my own bar. Remember the old Barney? He was a lion, the king of the jungle, stalking whatever prey he chose, going in for the kill.
Ted: You've got a whole meat locker at home full of corpses, don't you?
Barney: Now look at me. Declawed. Neutered. What was once my jungle is now my zoo and I am forced to mate with the same old lioness again, and again, and again while families pay to watch.
Ted: Yeah, this metaphor's really falling apart.
Barney: Put a bell around my neck and scratch my belly, kids, for I am just a docile housecat now. Miow.
Lily: Well, we love this bar. You can't dump her. Marry her if you have to.
Robin: Wendy the Waitress hyphen Stinson.
Marshall: Don't kill the bar, dude.
[Barney bangs his head on the table]

Barney: I mean, I don't like you that way. I used to like you that way but now that I've seen everything there is to see, I don't know, I kind of want to see those same parts just on other girls. Other girls and you, if you're into that but the other girls have to be there, too. That's the important part.
Wendy: Gosh, you're just terrified of ever getting close to anyone, aren't you?
Barney: Or that. Let's say it's that. So can I get a gin and tonic?

Barney: And in any other relationship, that would be it. End of story. But because you have to see this person again, there's a step 8. Fallout.
