Please! He’s really cute and I really like him, and he’s got a British accent!
I’m on my way.
Ted calls Barney, in a panic, from the bathroom and tells him he’s going for “the belt.” Barney says this is impossible, because Ted was just in the apartment half an hour before. Turns out, Marshall and Barney were supposed to meet Ted in the bar, but were too caught up in Wii tennis to go with him. So, Ted ends up alone at the bar, where he runs into Trudy. Trudy is the girl from “The Pineapple Incident.” Ted is funny and charming, and they’re really hitting it off, when Trudy runs into Rachel a sorority sister. And the girls invite Ted to stay with them.
Marshall and Barney are still playing tennis (It’s Wimbledon baby!) when Ted calls for advice. The girls are competitive over him and he doesn’t know which one to go for. Lily butts in and comes down to the bar to help him decide. Lily observes for a few minutes and then calls Ted to tell him that both girls want him.
Robin is out on a date with a doctor and originally she hadn’t shaved her legs because then she wouldn’t sleep with the guy, but after she realizes how much she likes him she asks Lily to bring her a razor.
The girls are talking about a guy they were fighting over in college, and it turns out they always wanted to a threesome with him. Also referred to as a “tricycle.” So, Ted called Barney because they have this running joke that whoever pulls it off first wins the “championship belt.” Which is an actual huge gold belt. When he comes out of the bathroom, the girls are going to leave, but they suggest that maybe they could listen to that cd he was talking about, so the three of them head upstairs.
Robin desperately calls Lily again, but Lily can’t leave now. So she pays the waitress $50 to buy her a razor from the drugstore across the street. The waitress brings the razor but not shaving cream, and Robin ends up using butter instead and falling over in the bathroom.
Lily gets a text from Ted that they’re “coming up sars” and everybody ends up frantically running around the apartment trying to get out of the living room. Ted’s incredibly nervous and awkward with the girls, and when he goes into his bedroom to get the cd, he finds everyone in his room. He freaks out, and they tell him he can use Lily and Marshall’s room instead. He asks Barney to hand him the cd, the only thing left for him to seal the deal, and Barney breaks it in half. He says that the belt is his birthright, not Ted’s. Also, Lily goes to peek at the girls and finds out that Rachel is the same girl who stole a pair of boots from her at a shoe sale earlier that day. Ted pays her for the boots she lost, and goes out to tell the girls he can’t find the cd.
Ted wimps out and goes to get the girls’ coats. Turns out, Barney also wimped out the time he had a chance at the belt, and he gives Ted a pep talk and walk him through how to seduce them. But when Ted goes out to the living room the girls are gone. But then he hears them in Marshall and Lily’s bedroom, where we flash to everyone in the bar. Ted won’t tell Barney who’s having a fit because Ted won’t tell him whether or not he did.
The Mother- Not my favorite episode. Robin’s story doesn’t really interest me, Lily, Barney, and Marshall are funny, but barely there, and I could care less about Ted scoring with two chicks. I mean really, who tells that to their kids?
