Episode Discussion: 1.02 - Purple Giraffe

Season 1 - Episode 02: Purple Giraffe



Aired: Monday, September 26th, 2005
Written by: Carter Bays & Craig Thomas



After telling Robin that "He loves her", things fall apart for she and Ted and he figures that it's all over for the two of them, but not for long as Ted finds out from Lily after she met Robin that she (Robin) likes him and Ted tries once again to win her affections, by throwing a party at his and Marshall's place, but it turns into 3 parties in 3 nights, when Robin was a no show for the first 2. Meanwhile, after Lily said yes to Marshall's marriage proposal, she has become extra affectionate to him in the bedroom and Marshall is worrying about finishing a huge paper to write for law school, that is due soon.

We only got the board during season three, so there are a lot of episodes without threads! So thus begins our Great Rewatch! Watch along with us, or just post about the old episodes from memory, whatever's easiest for you! And while you're watching, if there are any terms or phrases from these early episodes that we've forgotten to add before now, be sure to add them to our Lexicon thread!

Thanks for the thread, girl!

Oh this episode...Oh Ted . See, I can totally understand why people got so attached to Ted and Robin here, the show was a bit misleading for a while

Thanks for the thread!

I totally agree, they pitched it so hard at the beginning of the series that's why people got hooked to TR. He's like did anything to get her. 3 parties for her were funny and Marshall expression when he was ranting where Robin was and he saw her was priceless lol

I love how Lily's keeping Marshal from doing his work by just pointing to her ring

&& The roof... the roof... the roof is on fire! oh god, I LOVE Barney

Aww, I feel bad for Ted because Robin did not show up for the first 2 parties, but luckily she came to the 3rd one.

They finally kissed! It's good that they both told each other what they felt.



ugh the vid stopped loading there were just like 3 minutes left

Thanks for topping the thread Rhi

since I forgot to squee about David Henrie in the last episode Ill do it now he's so cute anyways ...

I love that Teds just sitting there when Lilys coming unto Marshal, they totally ignore him

Ted is sooo bad at being "casual" whateverrrr and his whole imaginary scenario, oh poor Ted, you'll never be able to pull that off

'so that was Robin' - Aww poor Ted, what if she hadnt gone on the third night either?

'Im not sure I like her' Aww Barney, so clueless at first

I loooove that he ran to the store to see Robin and then he was on camera all sweaty
