“Dancing is bad. Dancing leads to sex!”
After Ted and Robin have their first fight, Robin and Lily follow stories of Ted all over town as he runs from place to place with a girl he met at MacLaren’s.
Ted and Robin have their first big fight after he starts complaining about the phallic-in-design skyscraper his firm is designing. He’s been complaining about work for weeks and she’s just had enough. After she insults Field of Dreams the fight completely blows up. While telling the guys about the fight, Barney tells Ted he needs to use the line, “Ted Mosby, Architect” and he’d get more ladies. Ted tries it out on a girl at the bar and is surprised when she responds favorably.
The girls show up at MacLaren’s but the guys are gone. While wondering where Ted went a girl asks them if they mean, “Ted Mosby, Architect” and then tells them about Ted flirting with her and her friend. They find out that Ted and the friend went to a party Marshall’s friend was throwing. They find out from Marshall's friend that Ted was there and he, Marshall, and the girl went dancing. They call Marshall and ask for Ted and Marshall says that Ted’s working. They think he’s lying for Ted so they go to the club.
There they find out from the bouncer that Ted gave the chick a piggy-back ride across the street to her apartment. Marshall tried to stop him and tell him that he proved that the line works and asks if he’s worried that a “certain someone” is going to find out what he’s doing. But Ted runs off anyway. They get the apartment number from the bouncer (in exchange for Robin’s purse). They get to the girl’s and find out it’s unlocked, but before they can go in, Robin realizes she’s the problem. But Lily talks her into going in. They sneak in and find the girl in the shower and Barney in the girl’s bed. Barney tells them that he showed up while Ted was talking to the girls at MacLaren’s and after Ted went back to work Barney introduced himself as “Ted Mosby, Architect.” They go to leave and Barney leaves a form letter for the girl as a good-bye.
Robin does some contemplating and then takes donuts to Ted. She apologizes and they make-up. Ted also shows her the building he designed that Future Ted says is the one they actually built.
The Mother- Not my favorite episode, although I love the twist. It’s almost better when you know what’s really going on because then you can totally see Barney doing all those things.
So, what did you think? Am I totally off my rocker and this was the best episode ever? Let me know!
