Episode 1: Wait for It
When Robin shows up with a new boyfriend Gael, Ted decides he is ready to hit the town with Barney. He meets Amy, a tattooed party girl with whom he hooks up. Ted wakes up the next morning with a butterfly tattoo--a "tramp stamp"--on his lower back. Marshall also calls Barney and shows him he has 55 days until his next slap.

Episode 2: We're Not from Here
Realizing women are attracted to Gael because he is from out of town and has an accent, Barney and Ted pose as tourists to meet women. Robin evolved into a new person in Argentina, but once back in New York City, she becomes annoyed at things that she loved on vacation. When Gael brings Australian travelers to live with them, she finds it hard not to return to her old self. Meanwhile, Marshall writes a letter to Lily for his "death folder," which contains important information and comforting words for the surviving spouse if the other dies. He is tempted and opens her letter to him prematurely, but finds it is short and impersonal. They subsequently have their first fight as a married couple.

Episode 3: Third Wheel
Ted bumps into Trudy. While on a date with her, her sorority sister Rachel shows up and acts very interested in Ted. He tries to orchestrate a threesome ("tricycle"), but never reveals if it actually happened. Meanwhile, Robin goes on a date with unshaved legs so that she'll "behave" and can't sleep with the guy.

Episode 5: How I Met Everyone Else
Ted introduces a new girlfriend whom he met over World of Warcraft. She becomes jealous because the story of how they met is worse than the stories of how their friends met, and she becomes progressively less stable. Barney describes his "crazy scale" and how she ranks.

Episode 6: I'm Not That Guy
Ted discovers that a porn star is using his name. Jeff Coatsworth courts Marshall into joining his "evil" corporate law firm in exchange for an enormous salary and great benefits. Lily reveals her deep credit card debt to Robin, but is too ashamed to tell Marshall to abandon his dream job in favor of a job that will help their financial woes. Marshall accepts Coatsworth's offer when he discovers he will only be protecting a local theme park.

Episode 7: Dowisetrepla
Marshall finally tires of Ted's never-ending presence and his invasion on the married couple's personal space, so he decides to buy a new apartment with Lily. In a neighborhood called Dowisetrepla, Marshall falls in love with the first apartment that he and Lily visit. Lily feels guilty because of the huge credit card bill she hides from Marshall and because she knows they can't afford the apartment. Robin urges Lily to tell Marshall about the debt. Meanwhile, Barney hooks up with a woman, Meg, and takes the girl to the apartment in Dowisetrepla so he can sneak out while she is in the shower.

Episode 8: Spoiler Alert
Ted thinks he has found the perfect girl, but the group disagrees. At first they refuse to give a reason so as not to "spoil" her for him, but eventually Marshall tells him that she talks too much. Now that Ted knows, he cannot stand her garrulousness. The five friends then let slip each other's flaws until all are "spoiled," and thus are more annoying to those who had previously not realized the flaws. Marshall's bar exam results have been released, but he can't remember the password he needs to retrieve the results. Barney offers to help, but his help is only a ruse, and, with Marshall angry at Barney and the whole gang annoyed with one another, the arguments reach a climax in which Marshall's flaw of singing all the time saves him: One of Marshall's nonsense songs contains his password, leading him to be able to see that he's passed the bar.

Episode 9: Slapsgiving
As Lily and Marshall host their first Thanksgiving as a married couple, Barney is tortured by the tick-tock of the Slap Bet countdown clock and the certainty of the exact moment the slap is going to be delivered. Meanwhile, Ted and Robin try to settle their feelings for each other when she brings an older suitor to Thanksgiving with her. Marshall delivers his third slap.

Episode 10: The Yips
After everyone joins a gym, Barney sees Rhonda (the woman who took his virginity) there. After learning that his performance with her was poor, he loses his ability to approach women. After his attempts at a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show party go awry, Barney has sex with Rhonda again, and she claims it was the best she ever had.

Episode 11: The Platinum Rule
Ted asks the dermatologist removing his tattoo to go on a date and his friends try to discourage him from going out with someone he sees regularly--the "Platinum Rule"--recalling their own horror stories of bad experiences. (Robin dated a coworker, Barney dated Wendy the waitress, and Marshall and Lily double-dated with their neighbors). Ted's date is a bust anyway as the doctor says it's illegal to date patients.

Episode 12: No Tomorrow
Ted and Barney go out in the town to celebrate St. Patrick's Day as if there is no tomorrow, where Ted is seemingly rewarded for every bad behavior. Meanwhile, Lily and Marshall discover a major flaw with their new apartment, the floor is slanted. Robin helps them invent "roller luge". Ted finds a yellow umbrella that may be "Mother's".

Episode 13: Ten Sessions
When Ted goes to see a dermatologist named Stella to have his tattoo removed and instantly falls for her. She's not interested, however, and so Ted sets out to change her mind before the ten sessions are up. Abby, Stella's secretary, has a crush on Ted.

Episode 14: The Bracket
When Barney's love life is sabotaged by a mystery woman, he turns to tournament bracketology to narrow down the field of 64 women with the most cause to hate his guts.

Episode 15: The Chain of Screaming
When Marshall is verbally berated by his boss, he questions whether the decision to work for a big law firm was the best career move. Robin, Lily and Ted each describe how they would deal with Arthur's aggression, and Barney explains that Marshall shouldn't deal with it - the way that the chain (or circle) of screaming works is that one person screams at someone "below" him, then that person screams at another person, and so on. Meanwhile, Ted has bought himself a new car. All of his friends think a nice car is totally unnecessary in New York City and proceed to eat ice cream and smoke cigars inside the car, despite Ted's protests.

Episode 16: Sandcastles in the Sand
Robin's old boyfriend, Simon, from another of her teenage pop videos comes to town, leading to a rekindling of their former romance, and Barney being thrown into a frenzy to find the second video in question. Ted, Lily, and Marshall ponder their former personalities being brought back in the presence of old friends. When Robin is dumped by Simon again, Robin feels vulnerable leading her and Barney to sleep together.

Episode 17: The Goat
Guilt-ridden, Barney breaks the "Bro Code" by sleeping with Robin, and he ruins his friendship with Ted. Meanwhile, Lily decides to rescue a goat while the gang plans Ted's surprise party. In the end, future Ted realizes that he is confusing his 30th and 31st birthdays, that Barney's betrayal occurs before his 30th, while the goat incident — during which Robin will live in the apartment currently shared by Ted, Lily, and Marshall — will occur on his 31st.

Episode 18: Rebound Bro
Barney finds a new wingman to replace Ted, but he's painfully shy and awkward around women. Meanwhile Ted discovers that his new girlfriend Stella hasn't had sex in 5 years.

Episode 20: Miracles
After rashly breaking up with Stella, Ted is involved in a car accident. He re-evaluates his life and relationship with Stella, who didn't realize she had been dumped. Surrounded by Marshall, Lily, and Robin, Stella then dumps him. Meanwhile, Barney rushes to the hospital but is hit by a bus, seriously injuring him and leading to Ted and Barney's reconciliation. He then realizes he is in love with Robin. Robin and Marshall spend the episode arguing about the existence of miracles.
