This is really it. My last How I Met Your Mother recap. Deep breaths everyone. We’ll get through it.
And then we can rant all over again.
We open again at the Farhampton Train Station. Ted is still being needled by the old lady to go talk to the bassist. She believes that the bassist is The One and asks to sing at Ted’s wedding. Ted’s like “No. Calm down.” But he’s drawn to the bassist.
Go for it, Ted. Doooooo eeeeeeeeeet.

HIMYM: And As the Years Go By…
Here we are, folks. It’s the finale. Time for our last go around with the gang we’ve come to know and love. So, let’s start where it all began…MacLaren’s, 2005.
Barney is aghast that Ted used another wingman in his absence. That wingman—Robin. She apologizes that she wasn’t able to get him a date, but Ted says it’s alright. Robin offers to buy a round and gets up. Lily turns to Barney and Ted, threatening them. She says Robin could finally be the girlfriend she’s been waiting for. And she’s not going to let either of them ruin it for her. If they want to sleep with Robin, they have to marry her. Meanwhile, Robin orders scotch and cheers on sports—everything Lily didn’t think she wanted in a girlfriend—and has no clue what ride she’s just gotten on. It’s going to be a ride, Robin Scherblasky.
Enjoy it.

HIMYM: Cold Feet
It’s the penultimate episode, the last one before we say goodbye to this wacky group of friends forever. The one where everything was still a mystery and people weren’t…well, I’m getting ahead of myself. It’s time for Barney and Robin’s wedding, y’all!
Except the bride and the groom are both having pre-wedding panic attacks. Barney’s is over the color of his tie. He says he has the perfect cornflower blue one back in his apartment. He tries to climb out of the window to escape. Lily and Marshall hold him back, fully aware of pre-wedding panic attacks. (Marshall’s hair cut, anyone?)

HIMYM: NOPE
We’ll get more into that title later.
Instead, we open at the Farhampton Inn in 2024. A snowstorm rages outside as Ted and the Mother sit inside, alone. She comments that they made it just in time and that the storm looked bad. Ted says that this isn’t the worst storm he ever encountered. He starts talking about the Fiero Fiasco, but the Mother has already heard the story. So he tells about the time he and Barney took over MacLaren and Lily got stuck on her flight back to New York…but the Mother heard that one too. So then there was the time Marshall got stuck on the roof while putting up decorations…which (sing along if you know the words!) the Mother has already heard. Ted wonders if maybe Lily told her the story, but the Mother points out that the story contains a word (“ragamuffin”) more suited to Ted’s vocabulary. (And mine. What?)
So the Mother decides to tell a few stories of her own, but Ted’s heard them all as well. They realized they’ve heard everyone one of each other’s stories. Ted declares that it’s official—they are an old married couple. After a beat, the two smile and high five each other in celebration.
