How I met your mother Season 9 Episode 13: Bass Player Wanted



Saturday 10 PM. 20 hours before the wedding

After their Bus broke down on the way to Farhampton, Marshall thought that it would be an easy feat to walk all the way to Farhampton. But he was wrong. Fortunately the mother was passing by and offered them a lift. That's how Marshall met the mother.

Back in the Farhampton Inn, a mysterious guest approached Lily and Robin with the purpose of getting their trust and information that could ruin their friendship. The guest also approached Barney and Ted. He first told Robin that Lily was planning to ruin the wedding by focusing all the attention to Lily using Marshall's decision to take the judgeship. The guest also revealed to Barney that Ted is planning to leave for Chicago a day after the wedding which upsets Barney.



The mother and Marshall are talking on their way back to Farhampton. She told him that she met Lily was upset about Marshall's decision. She also revealed that she was took her bandmate's van in revenge for trying to get kicked out from the band that she started.

It is then revealed that the mysterious guest is Darren, the mother's band mate. She told Marshall that Darren always ruins friendship during weddings. Marshall convinced the mother to stand up for herself which she agrees to in the end.

In an attempt to mend his friendship with Barney, Ted stole a 30 year old Glen Mckenna from storage. Robin then made a Marshpillow for Lily to vent out her frustration. Barney and Ted made up and Barney realized that it would be hard for Ted to move on now that only Robin, Ted and him would stay in New York since Marshall and Lily would be moving to Italy for a year. While Lily was hitting Marshpillow, Marshall arrived with Marvin. When Lily saw them she opted to put their dispute on "pause".



Now that the gang are all back together again, they celebrated by drinking the Glen Mckenna that Ted stole. Back in the Farhampton Inn bar, the mother is considering confronting Darren about her band but did not have enough courage to face him.  While the Ted was pouring the Glen Mckenna, Darren bumped to Ted making him drop the bottle. Ted then punched Darren and knocked him out.

Darren was furious being punched by Ted. He told him that he was punched by the best man for no reason and asked the bartender for some ice. Darren saw the mother laughing and told her that she could have her band back. He quits the band and told them that he would be returning to band called the New Guns and Roses.



The mother then bought Ted a double of the finest liquor that they have. After being given his drink, Ted asked if it was from anyone from the gang. He also asked what he what was drinking. The bartender revealed that it was a Glen Mckeena 35 years. They asked him why he didn't tell them that they had that in Farhampton, the bartender simply replied that they didn't asked.

Marshall was apologizing to Barney for being late and was being obnoxious about it. Marshall said that he has a special gift but prefers to give it to him after the wedding photos. Barney was persistent. Marshall revealed that it was the final slap that he won from Barney years back.

Great episode. As I have thought previously another Glen Mckenna bottle would be broken before the season ends. It is hard to the calling the Ted's future wife the mother. I hope they reveal her name soon. So everyone has met the mother except for Robin and Ted. We should expect her to meet Robin before she meets Ted. Marshall will finally use the final slap. That is something to look forward to.

How I met your mother Season 9 Episode 12: Rehearsal Dinner


Saturday 8 PM. 22 hours before the wedding

The episode begins with Barney is handcuffed to Pipe in a security office for causing some disturbance in a laser tag arena. Robin is with Barney and was furious since their rehearsal dinner has started 10 minutes earlier in the Farhampton Inn. Barney was begging the guard to push the button on a novelty toy but was not able to since Robin objected.

A few months back, Robin told the gang about the idea of having the wedding in Canada. Queue Canada jokes. Barney had an idea of having a rehearsal dinner in a laser tag arena. Everyone shut down the Idea but Barney wasn't going to let it drop so easily. As a wedding gift, Ted wanted to play the piano during the wedding which was refused by Barney and Robin until Ted told them that he will wear a Liberace will doing it.


Back in Farhampton bar, Barney believes that Robin is planning to surprise him by having the rehearsal dinner at the Laser tag arena. He believes that the dinner in Farhampton is fake. When the ice dispenser has broken down, Barney insisted of getting the ice himself. Despite promising to Robin that he will not leave the Farhampton Inn, he went  to the shop near the laser tag arena to get some ice.




Robin then receives a phone call informing him that Barney has been detained for causing some disturbance and insisted that there is a surprise rehearsal dinner for him in the arena. In the office, Barney told Robin that in the future it would be possible for him to lie to her if it means an amazing surprise. Barney finally pressed the button which lifted up the walls of the security office. Robin and Barney was in the middle of the skating rink. Barney told her that since they couldn't have the wedding in Canada, he prepared a Canadian-themed wedding rehearsal dinner for her. Ted then revealed to Lily that he has been taking skating lessons in the last few months. The episode ended with Robin thanking Barney for the surprise

No Marshall and Marvin in this episode. That means he missed yet another important moment in the Wedding weekend. Barney has made a great surprise we have to give kudos for making the episode not too cheesy but not to boring at the same time.

With a only few more episodes left n the series, I wish that they put the mother in the spotlight more. Since it took nine seasons for Ted and the mother to meet, I hope the wait for fans like me would be worth it.

What are your thoughts on the Rehearsal Dinner?

How I met your mother season 9 recap



Warning Spoiler alert

So far the mother has met Lily on the train and Barney in one of his challenges. The mother has set Barney straight and has made him realize that he wants to be with Robin for the rest of his life. There future scene with Ted and the mother in this season. So far Ted is seen with the mother in the Farhampton bar a year after the wedding and Ted proposing to her in the lighthouse. In my opinion this are great scene that writers have come up with. 




We still have to see how Ted would meet the mother. So far all the events would lead to that moment but there are a lot of detours before getting there. I don’t mind this detours but I wonder if the remaining episodes would be enough to end the series satisfying the fans. I personally find the season great so far. 
Bringing in Daphne as Marshall’s driving companion is a great part of the story. She has brought a lot of laughs to the story. But will we see her again after the 10th episode? I do hope so. As Marshall is about to reach Farhampton, the evitable fight between Marshall and Lily is about to begin. For those who haven’t seen the last ten episodes, Marshall just recently told Lily about his decision to take the Judge position without telling Lily first. This would spoil their plans to move to Rome for a year. We would have to see who would sacrifice their dream. 

Zabka has been great so far but I think I had enough of him. So far the season has been focusing too much time on the minor characters. That also goes with James and Loretta.

I would love to see that the mother met Ted before the season finale. As we all know that Ted would meet her in the Farhampton station with the iconic yellow umbrella and the first time he sees her is when she is playing at the reception. I think they should allot more than one episode of them getting to know each other. It’s been nine seasons. The wait is almost over. Will How I met your mother fans be given a fitting end to a great series or are we waiting for a big disappointment? What are your thoughts?

How I met your mother Season 9 Episode 10: Mom and Dad


Saturday 3 PM. 27 hours before the wedding


Barney has entrusted Ted with his surprise gift for Robin, an autographed photo of Wayne Gretzsky. Unfortunately Billy Zapka (the villain in the karate kid films that Barney thinks is the hero) has other plans for the photo. He sneaks in to Ted’s room and poured ink on the photo. 



Ted informs Lily what happen and tells her that Detective Mosby is going to investigate who is responsible for the act. Lily immediately replies that Detective Mosby sucks and that he still haven’t solved the Pineapple incident. He has three suspects: Zabka, the Bellhop and Robin’s cousin Claude. Ted suspected that Zabka was responsible because he wants to reclaim the best man role. Ted suspected that the bellhop ruined the photo because he complained about him. But bellhop didn’t know that he was being complained until Ted has informed him. Ted deduced that Claude is a huge Montreal Canadiens fan and hates the Gretsky and the Edmonton Oilers. After seeing ink on his hand he thought that Claude is guilty of the inking the photo. Claude’s Alibi did not help. According to him he was helping an Elderly when the hand glider that he was riding crash in to the beach and hit a squid. The ink squirted as he was about to help the Elderly. Ridiculous as his alibi may seem, it is true.There was indeed a giant squid in the beach. In the end Zabka was caught and he confessed that he did it to become Barney’s best man again. He apologizes to Ted and instead Ted took the blame for the photo. 

Daphne and Marshall are still on their road trip and trying to beat the time to reach Daphne’s daughter Model UN speech. They eventually did get there. The speech started like any speech a kid would write until she said that “Oil is the Future! Don’t listen to those gutless environmental sissies. Drill Baby Drill!” Daphne was so proud. Marshall was shocking having listened to a kid denounce environmentalism. He immediately bids farewell to Daphne and left for Farhampton.



Barney is playing Cupid and trying to reunite her mom Loreta with her dad Jerome (John Lithgow). Unfortunately James has the same plans as well. Barney came up with a plan to get rid of Jerome’s wife with the help of Ranjit. He hijacked the elevator while Jerome and Loreta and pours water on them hoping that they disrobe. James’ dad Sam while be Barney and Robin’s officiating minister for their wedding. Barney and James soon learned that Sam and Loreta are already hooking up but were not told about it. Robin explained to Barney that James needs Sam and Loreta to be together more than Barney because of James’ recent break up. Eventually Barney gives his blessing and trapped Sam and Loreta inside. Unfortunately James was with his parents when they started making out. 

It seems like Marshall will be with the gang next episode since it wouldn’t be much of a road trip without Daphne.I do hope that Daphne returns because she was great! I guess we have to brace ourselves for the Marshall-Lily fight. It is something that we have been waiting for a while now. With only a few episodes left with still have to learn about the truth about the Pineapple incident. Also there is the final slap from Marshall that we still haven’t seen. We still have to see how the mother will met Robin and Marshall. That is if they have met before the wedding. In the episode Barney drop the Glen Mckenna that he and James were about to drink. That’s Mckenna number 2. In episode three of this season, Ted dropped a Mckenna when Barney told him about seeing him with Robin trying to look for the locket. SO is that the last Mckenna or would there be more?

More mother please! But it seems we won’t see her in the next episode based on the preview. What do you think of Mom and Dad?

How I met your mother Season 9 Episode 7: No Questions Asked


Friday 11:30PM. 42.5 Hours before the wedding

Last episode Daphne has sent Lily a message regarding Marshall’s acceptance of the Judgeship. Marshall is relieved that Lily is complaining about the room that they got which room number 13 instead of learning about Marshall’s Judgeship. The room is rumored to be haunted by the supposed serial killer Captain Dearduff the Hooker. Rumor also has it that Dearduff died in room in 1843 when he froze to death next to the window when his hook got stuck in the wall.

Moments later Marshall asked Ted to do a “No questions asked” for helping Ted get out of a mailbox in New York City. Ted is to delete the last text message that Lily received. He instructed Ted to use the door since the lock is broken. But instead he climbed down the drain pipe and tried to use a hanger to unlock the window. He was discovered by Lily but he was able to put her back to sleep using a version of Marvin’s Lullaby. 


As he was searching for Lily’s phone he heard voices from the ventilation shaft. Barney was inside it and was searching for Lily’s phone as well. Barney also owes Marshall a no questions asked when he signed Barney out of the hospital for swallowing Lucky charms. Lily was awaken and was asking Barney what he was doing but shortly after room service arrived. Lily stormed off to complain about the room service and was refusing to pay it. Later Robin came out of the food cart and revealed that he owes Marshall a “No questions asked”. Marshall was asked by Robin to meet her in an alley. He caught her and escaped from weird people wearing spandex. Robin was wearing spandex as well. They all could not find found and then they realize that she has it with her. 

On the reception area, Lily was complaining about the room service. She was about to call Marshall when Ted asked her to destroy her phone for the “No questions ask” that she owes him. Apparently he helped Lily when her students tied her up in a chair.




Ted told Marshall that he succeeded and asked him why he didn’t ask him for a “No question asked”. Marshall told him that he never kept anything from Lily which prompted him to tell her the truth. Lily didn’t take it easily and said that he never believed that anyone died in room 13 but somebody will die there soon.
I was wondering about the whole concept of the “No question asked”. In real life would you do anything without asking questions? I am sure that I would if anybody asked me but I would sure make sure to make fun of that person. I don’t think anyone ask me that kind of request before? Has anyone asked you to do that? Now the concept did not appear in the whole show until this episode.  I wonder why they didn’t make any hints about that. It could have been a recurring plot like the Slaps which reminds me that Marshall still has one slap to give. What are your thoughts on No questions asked?

How I met your mother Season 9 Episode 9: Platonish



Saturday 11 AM.  31 hours before the wedding

Robin is still upset after learning that her mother would not be able to attend her wedding. Barney then accepts the challenge of cheering her and claimed that once a challenge is accepted it can not be unaccepted and has to be seen though. Lily argues that Barney failed to finish one challenge to pick diapers and Samosas while picking up a woman. 

Flashback a couple months back. Lily, Robin and Barney are on Mclaren’s bar and Lily has argued that Barney only accepts challenges that he create. She then gave him his first challenge. Picking up a girl while speaking like a dolphin. Eventually he succeeded. Second is pickup a girl without using the letter E.
The third challenge is picking up a girl who Robin has chosen. Before explaining the challenge to Barney, she talked to a girl on bar telling her that she is an assistant of Ryan Gosling and that Gosling would not speak to her if she talks to any guy.

When Barney arrives in Mclaren she refused to talk to him. Barney had to trick her that he was Ryan Gosling and that he had facial surgery to play a role of a guy who is much more handsome than Gosling.  She gave in and gave him her number.




Robin and Lily made one more challenge getting diapers and Samosas while trying to get a girl. While trying to complete the challenge, Barney met the mother and asked him if he wants to keep on playing or if he wants to win. He decided to stop the challenge and started creating a plan on how he would propose to Robin.

Also in the Episode, Marshall is trying to push Ted in making his move on Robin. He explained that Ted still had feelings for Robin and should not let the opportunity pass. Ted has argued that the end result would still be the same and it would end the same way as before.



Ted gets a phone from Hammond Druthers (Bryan Cranston of Breaking Bad) offering him a job in Chicago. Ted has declined and Druthers has promised to make him miserable if he refused by calling him non-stop, tweeting and even flooding Ted’s Facebook page with messages in which Ted replies that they are not Facebook friends. In the end Ted declines the Job as he is still not yet ready to leave New York and not yet ready to give up on Robin.

There are two things great about this episode. First Barney meeting the mother and second is Bryan Cranston as Hammond Druthers. Barney’s meeting with the mother has set things on perspective for Barney. It was a turning point and if they did not meet, Barney would still not consider settling down. Cranston played his role perfectly. It is funny seeing him like this in comparison on how he acts on Breaking Bad. The episode explains why Ted is going to Chicago. This is one of the best episodes of the season so Far. What are your thoughts on Platonish?

How I met your Dad on the works


From the creators of how I met your mother comes a spinoff of sort, How I met your dad. Carter Bays and Craig Thomas will write the Pilot episode. There were rumors that the cast of the spinoff while be introduced in the final season of How I met your mother but later it is revealed that the story would be entirely unrelated to the show. Story would be on a woman’s point view and how she would meet the man that he will marry.
I have been a fan of the show since it first air. I love the show and how it has been written. But could I invest my time to this spinoff? Who knows how much Bays and Thomas have left for this new show. I wouldn’t mind giving it a try. I just hope that they don’t make the same mistake of what Scrubs did. If they are going to make a spinoff, it should be totally unrelated. In Scrubs they tried start the spinoff series where they left off with the original series. I personally had a hard time adjusting to the idea of the main character being changed to a new actor. That was the flaw in my opinion. I hope this would not be the case for How I met your dad. What are your thoughts?

Friday 9 PM. 45 hours before the wedding

Robin and Barney are trying to set Ted up with three of their friends: Sophia, Cassie and Grace. Barney tells Ted that it is an important decision and choosing wrong would lead to a miserable weekend. Barney compares it to Indiana Jones’ decision when trying to find the Holy Grail on the movie Indiana Jones and the last crusade. 
Ted chooses Cassie. Immediately Ted sees a vision of a knight in the Indiana Jones movie telling him that he has chosen poorly. Little that Ted knows, Cassie has just broken up with his ex-boyfriend Wesley. Soon she learns that she is getting fired from work. She asked if she got meet with her students to say goodbye but was informed that her class hates her. Cassie then started to get depressed. 


Every decision Ted made was mistake and every time he makes them immediately after the knight appears and tells him that he did not make poor decisions. Starting with place where Ted plans to dish Cassie in. Ted plans to dump Cassie in the dining area. Apparently Cassie’s parents were there which make the situation more awkward for Ted. 

Meanwhile Lily meets Reverend Lowell and tells him how she met Marshall. Lowell got angry and left Lily. She later learns that Robin and Barney used the details of their first meeting and passed it as their own. Lowell eventually learns that truth and refused to marry them. Barney and Robin told him the truth but it was too much for the Reverend to handle. Later they realize that the reverend died in his chair. 
Ted and Cassie meet Wesley on their way to their room to make out. Wesley is currently with Sophia, one of the single ladies that Robin and Barney are trying to hook him up with. With an attempt to get rid of Cassie, Ted told Sophia that they should leave Cassie and Wesley to talk. Wesley protested and Cassie and Ted went to the room. 



Back in the room Ted and Cassie were trying to make out. Ted realized that Cassie was too much of wreck and the chance of them making out is slim. Cassie then let Ted off the hook. Back in the Bar Grace arrives. Since everyone in the wedding is thinks that Cassie and Ted is a couple, Ted has forced Grace to the bar and has bought drinks before Grace talks to anyone. Barney then informs Ted that the Reverend has passed away. Ted then proposed a toast in memory of the reverend which the Knight tried to stop. Ted went through the toast but learned that Cassie is the Reverend’s niece. Ted was forced to comfort her in front of all the people throwing his chance of hook up away with Grace.

This is the best episode of the season so far. The knight was great and really funny. This event leads again on how the mother meets Ted. If Ted went with either Grace or Sophia, she might have not met the mother. What are your thoughts?

How I met your mother Season 9 Episode 5: The Poker Game



Friday 6 PM. 48 hours before the wedding


In the poker table, Ranjit, Barney, Ted, Billy Zabka, Tim Gunn, James and Marshpillow were playing. At the last stages of the game Robin and James were left. Robin irritated by James’ negative comments about marriage asked him wager to his wedding ring. Robin won but later has brought Loretta to ask Barney to tell Robin to return the Ring. Barney was put in a difficult position on choosing between his mother and Barney over Robin. Robin and Loretta then played poker and Robin eventually wins Loretta’s favorite blouse.

Meanwhile Ted informs Lily that he plans to give Robin and Barney three wedding gifts. This ticked Lily off since Ted did not even get them a wedding present. Marshall has tried several times to send Ted the message that he did not get them a gift. At the same time Ted was also trying to send a message to Lily and Marshall about not receiving a thank you note. Apparently their friend Stuart has used Ted’s wedding present and passed it as his own wedding gift. Lily confronts Stuart and he confessed. He asked Lily not to tell his wife Claudia and has 
claimed that the wedding gift has changed the course of their marriage positively. 




As Marshall was passing Chicago, Ted has asked Grazzola, Ted and Marshall’s favorite pizza place that closed down due to sanitary reason but is now back in business, to deliver a pizza while they are passing Chicago. This is way to reconcile with Marshall. 

In the end she chose Robin and wanted to severe his ties with Loretta and James. He also said that it was all Robin’s Idea. Robin wanted to apologize to Loretta by returning the blouse. Loretta did not take it back and told Robin that it isn’t over yet. 



Alright marshpillow again? Marshpillow sucks! Good thing that is the end of it. The thing between Robin and Loretta is far from over. We expect them to clash in future episodes. Bringing in Grazzola is good touch to story. If you watch the previous season, Grazzola is the one place they love even though the food is not safe to eat. Only Ted and Marshall have eaten it so far. Will everyone in the gang eventually have a taste of the Grazzola pizza? It would be great if that would happen but it seems that is the end of it. What are your thoughts about the poker game?

How I met your mother Season 9 Episode 2: Coming Back

Friday at noon, 54 hours before the wedding

Barney’s Brother James has arrived in Farhampton. Barney told Robin, Ted and Lily about the Stinson’s family curse that caused all Stinson men to be desperate for sex. Barney however believes that the curse has been lifted when James was married to Tom. James has told Barney that they are getting a divorce. Robin persuaded James in not telling Barney in fear that it might cause him not go through with the wedding. James reluctantly agreed however an intoxicated Lily has spilled the beans.

Robin followed Barney how has stormed off. Robin thought that he was fazed with news but he was just asking the inn keeper for James’ room key to remove the erotic surprise gift that he prepared for James and Tom.
Marshall is still stuck in Minnesota with Marvin. The last remaining flight to New York was cancelled due to a storm. Marshall had to race Daphne, the passenger got ban from the flight along with Marshall, to rent a car. The cars ran out but Marshall got the last key. They made an agreement that Daphne would rent the car and purchase a baby seat and Marshall would pay for the gas.



Ted is in bar when James arrived. James told Ted that it is difficulty to be truly happy knowing that what happens after the marriage isn’t always good. The inn keeper gave James’ room key leaving Ted alone in the bar. A flashforward is seen in which Ted is with the mother exactly a year after. He told her that he made a promise to himself to bring her to Farhampton a year after that date. The mother told her that he hasn’t met her in which he replied that he knew that they would meet.The episode ended with Ted getting his room key but the surprise gift the Barney prepared was in the room.



It was a funny episode. Seeing Ted and the mother together for the first time was a great scene. In my opinion they did a great job casting the mother role and she is great with it. With a few more episodes left in the series, I can’t wait to see how it would the story unfold.

How I met your Mother Season 9 Episode 1: The Locket

Friday 11 AM, 55 hours before the wedding



Ted and Lily driving their way to Farhampton Inn for Braney and Robin’s wedding. Ted has irritated Lily with his detours about historical figures that Lily does care about. He asked Ted to drop her at the train station. In the Train she meets Ted’s future Wife.


Barney and Robin are being driven by Ranjit to Farhampton. While having a conversation about possible Wild cards of those who are likely to ruin their wedding, they both mentioned a “Crazy cousin Mitch”. They were horrified with the possibility that they are related. But Robin’s grandma confirmed that Mitch is related to Barney by Marriage and Robin by Adoption which was a relief for both of them.



Marshall is on a plane with Marvin when he received a text message from his mom about Marshall becoming a judge. He asked her to delete the picture since Lily is still not aware of him taking the Job. He was asked to turn off the phone by a flight attendant. Sitting next to her Daphne has Marshall to turn off the phone. He refused to turn it off until her mom deletes the photo. Eventually Marshall and Daphne were banned from the flight. In the Airport, Marshall accessed her mom account but was unable to delete it since he could not click on options. Marvin click on a random key and the photo was deleted before Lily seeing it.



On the train, Lily has met the mother. Lily took some of the cookies that the mother offered her and they started conversing. Lily told her about Ted and his behavior which she secretly finds cool. The mother then commented that it seems that Ted wanted her to take the train. And Lily remembered that a few days earlier, Ted helped Robin in locating a locket that she buried a few years back. Ted remembered that the locket might be with Stella, his ex-girlfriend, who now lives in Los Angeles. He confessed to Lily that he emailed her about the Locket and was told that he had to go to Los Angeles himself to find it in a storage unit. Lily is worried that Ted will use the Locket to try to win Robin back.

In Farhampton, Ted was about to give his gift to Robin but was tackled by Lily. When Robin opened the gift it was a picture of the group taken 8 years ago. Ted tells Robin that he wants Robin and Barney to find happiness. Lily apologizes and made Ted promise that he won’t do anything to ruin their wedding. Future Ted said that he meant the promise at that time. It was also revealed that Ted flew to Los Angeles days before.

I always thought that Robin and Ted look great together. There were times that I wish that they ended up together. Ted has always been a romantic and if he ever pulled off in acquiring the locket, it would be a big surprise and might be a game changer. But also seeing the mother in this episode I know that she is the perfect fit. What are your thoughts?
