How I Met Your Mother

Edit this Page

Starting in 2005, HIMYM tells the story of Ted, a hopeless romantic looking for his soul mate in NYC. With his best friends Lily and Marshall, his "wing man" Barney and one time girlfriend Robin with him, will Ted Mosby find love?

Trivia:

During the episode there is an ongoing countdown to the bad news starting at 50. Number 50 shows up in the first sceene on the doctors desk all the way to 1 that's on the cab from which Lilly steps out of to tell Marshall the bad news. All numbers are shown in numeric form except for the number 5. It's the number of fingers Marshall holds up when Barney is giving him a high-five.

Quote: Barney Stinson

The lesson of Blauman is when your boss screams at you, you never scream back. That's why there's a little thing in corporate America I like to call "The Chain of Screaming."

Marshall Eriksen

Chain of screaming?

Barney Stinson

Yes. The chain of screaming starts at the top. Arthur's boss boss screams at Arthur's boss. Arthur's boss screams at Arthur. Arthur screams at you. You go home and scream at Lily. Lily, screams at one of the kids in her kindergarten class. Then, that kid screams at her dad, Arthur's boss boss. Then the whole thing starts all over again, thus completing "The Circle of Screaming."

Ted Mosby

I thought it was a chain of screaming?

Barney Stinson

It's a circle Ted. I called it a circle.

Marshall Eriksen

I don't scream at Lily.

Lily Aldrin

And I don't scream at my kids, none of whom have parents who work at Marshall's firm.

Robin Scherbatsky

So its not a circle.

Barney Stinson

(Barney in a very angry tone) Fine! You want it to be a chain of screaming!? Its a chain of screaming! I came up with the circle idea halfway through because I thought it was a more elegant metaphor. But fine ruin it! (Barney beings to yell) You guys always undermind me, when I'm trying to make a point and I'm sick of it! God! I'm surrounded by idiots! Idiots! (Barney talks in a normal, calm voice) See, doesn't everybody feel better now?
