Barney: Let's be clear. I don't love her, okay? I just ...
miss her when she's not around, I think about her all the time
and I imagine us one day running toward each other in slow motion and
I'm wearing a brown suede vest.

Barney: Ted, I have to tell you the truth. I'm in love with - Taaacos!

Robin: I'm surprised to see you had it in me. You. Had it in you.

Barney: 200. Now what?

Barney: Maybe I don't wanna be saved the trouble. Maybe I want the trouble.
I haven't wanted the trouble in a long time but with you,

the trouble doesn't seem so ... troubling.

I think both us and fans of the show saw that they had great chemistry back in season one,
when Barney and Robin kind of wingman'ed each other one night in Zip, Zip, Zip -
they played laser tag and smoked cigars and stuff, and all the fans started speculating that clearly it has to go that way.
We just didn't want to rush towards it, so we held off for a while.
But ultimately we knew we wanted to get to that because they're great together.

It's not classic happily ever after, to say the least. It's two people that aren't
programmed for happily ever after and never would have prioritized that,
were it not for the fact that they're crazy about each other.
