I want to give you the package.

Lily

The package? You've already given me the package. You've got a great package, Marshall. I love your package.

Lily, you are the most incredible woman I know. You deserve a big package.

Lily

Your package has always been big enough. You may not realize this Marshall Eriksen, but you've got a huge package!

[Marshall turns around to see a hot girl nearby eyeing him and smiling fiendishly]

LGLittle girl

Do you have a fiancée?

Lily

Marshall was here yesterday, they just learned the word fiancée.

Oh no, I don't have a fiancée.

LGLittle girl

Then who do you live with?

Well, actually, I've got five dogs.

LGLittle girl

Don't you get lonely?

No, I've got five dogs.

LGLittle girl

My grandma has five cats and she gets lonely.

Well, yeah, that's cats, I'm not some pathetic cat lady, not that your grandmother is some pathetic cat lady – does anybody else have questions?

LBLittle boy

Are you a lesbian?

NO, ARE YOU? Jeez. [mumbles] Every woman that lives alone is not a lesbian.

[Lily is freaking out because a New Jersey high school that has The 88 for a prom band wouldn't let them in. She thinks Barney's ideas of sneaking in may the only way to see the band.]

You're getting on board with Barney's idea. Man, you really have snapped!

Lily

It's nine weeks 'til the wedding. I'd say "yes" to just about anything.

[saunters to Lily] Well...

Lily

No, Barney.

[She and Lily come out in fancy dresses] All right, what do you think?

[Looks up] Horrible.

Lily

You're gonna make such a great dad.

You look so classy and nice, you're gonna stick out like a sore thumb. Have you seen how the kids are dressing these days, with the Ashlee and the Lindsay and the Paris? They all dress like strippers. It's, "Go ho or go home." Now ladies...SLUT UP!

[Lily admits to Ted about the arts program and how it could derail her and Marshall's wedding]

Lily

There are certain things in life where you know it's a mistake but you don't really know it's a mistake because the only way to really know it is a mistake is to make that mistake and look back and say, "Yup, that was a mistake". So really, the bigger mistake would be to not make the mistake because then you'll go your whole life not really knowing if something is a mistake or not. And damn it, I made no mistakes. I've done all of this: my life, my relationship, my career mistakes-free. Does any of this make sense to you?

I don't know, you said 'mistake' a lot.

[Marshall and Lily talk about Lily's program in San Francisco]

So that's it? We're breaking up?

Lily

Marshall, I'm sorry. I just, I just need to go to San Francisco and do this art program and-and figure out who I am outside of us, and the only way I can do that is if...if we don't talk for a while.

For a while. Try never, okay? You walk out of that door, and we're done. You're never going to hear my voice again! [segue to Marshall talking to Ted] I should call her.

No, no, if you call her when she asks you not to, you're just gonna look weak and you're gonna regret it. Whenever you feel like calling her, you come find me first... and I will punch you in the face.

You're a good friend, Ted.

FTFuture Ted

The thing about a hangover is that everyone has their own special remedy.

WWaiter

Morning, guys! What can I getcha?

Lily

Shhhhh..... bring me the dirtiest, greasiest Tuna Melt you got. And a milkshake.

WWaiter

For you, sir?

Uggh.... gravy.

WWaiter

Do you want that gravy on something?

...Surprise me.

I'd take you with gravy if my boyfriend wasn't sitting right here, heehee! Just kidding, I'm good!

Lily

What are you so chirpy about?

She's still drunk from last night.

I don't think so! [looks around, then shakes her chest] WOOOO!

Lily

Why would I want to change anything? This place is great, except you don't have a TV.

[Points to wall] See that wall? [Turns on TV] 300 inch flatscreen! They only sell them in Japan but I know a guy. They ship it over in a tugboat like freakin' King Kong!

Lily

It hurts my eyes...

Yeah, that doesn't go away.

Lily

[about Ted's boss, who has designed a building resembling a penis] I can't believe how Mr Druthers treats people, and that building? Talk about overcompensating.

He's not usually this bad. It's just that his partners have made it clear that this project is make or break for us, so lately, he's been testy. [Lily and Robin smirk] You know what I mean, crotchety. [Lily and Robin begin to laugh] I'm just saying, it's been hard on him. [Lily and Robin laugh harder] All right, stop.

Did you show Lily your design?

No.

Lily

What design?

It's nothing.

It's fantastic. Just for fun, Ted's been working on his own design, and it doesn't look at all like male genitalia...at least, not healthy male genitalia.

Lily

You should pitch your building to Druthers.

Are you kidding? He's Hammond Druthers! He's a legend -- I'm just part of his team. This building is huge for the firm, so it's important that we don't blow it. [Lily and Robin collapse laughing] All right, enough!

Hi, we need a marriage license but we need to skip the waiting period because we're in love.

CClerk

Aaww..I'm gonna waive this waiting period right now!

Lily

Really!?

CClerk

Is what I would say if I could waive the waiting period but unfortunately only a judge can do that.

Lily

Oh, so can we see a judge?

CClerk

Absolutely!

Lily

Really?

CClerk

Is what I would say if there was any chance of you seeing a judge today, which there isn't.

[clenched teeth] Why are you doing this to us?

CClerk

Because you're on CANDID CAMERA!

Really?

CClerk

Is what I would say--

You know what? We get it.

[The gang watches 'Let's Go to the Mall']

Lily

This is the most amazing thing I have ever seen!!

That's YOU?

Yes. I had one minor hit. I had to go all over Canada and sing this song in malls. For a whole year I lived off of Orange Juliuses and Wetzel's Pretzels.

Lily

So, just to be clear...you want us to go to the mall...today?

OK, here's my thing - if gay guys start getting married, then suddenly the whole world's gonna be doing it. That's how it works: they start something, then six months later, everyone follows. Like... now everyone gets manicures.

Yeah... I don't get manicures.

OK, then, like, how... like getting your chest waxed.

Lily

[gasping] Oh! You get your chest waxed?

[annoyed] You know what I mean! Gay marriage is going to cause single life as we know it to die out. Think of how the American family will be strengthened!

[Flashback.]

I'm sorry, but i'm not apologizing! Look-I was just trying to put the guy back together. You smashed him to pieces!

Lily

Are you seriously not going to apologize for leaving that message?!

NO!

Lily

Why not?!

BECAUSE, Lily, this summer you were KIND OF A GRINCH!

RBRobin and Barney [present]

Oooooooohhhhhhh.

LFLily [flashback]

[coldly] You'll be sorry, Ted Mosby.

[Present, at MacLaren's.]

Ted Vivian Mosby!

That's not my middle name.

You kiss your mother with that mouth?!

Like you've never said that word.

I don't kiss your mother with my mouth. Yet...

[Barney sneezes]

Are you sick?

Is it sick to find maturity and experience sexy?

No, I meant do you have a cold?

I'm fine. [blows his nose; Ted and Robin look at him] I'm fine. My nose is just overflowing with awesome and I had to get some of it out. If you'll excuse me, holiday is the time when people are lonely and desperate. It's the most wonderful time of the year.

[At Lily's apartment, Ted and Lily try to patch up over the dirty word]

Lily

Oh, shut up. You think I don't know your fake apologies by now, Ted Mosby? You're clearly still mad at me.

I'm not mad at you.

Lily

Yes you are.

[seething] I am NOT mad at you Lily, now can we please just...

Lily

I've apologized to Marshall and he's forgiven me, and we've moved past it. Why can't you?

Because you've never apologized to me. Marshall's not the only one you walked out on. You leave for three months, you don't even call? Come on, Lily we're supposed to be friends!

Lily

Yeah, some friend, you called me a Grinch!

You were a grinch!

Lily

How can you...

Grinchy, grinch grinch grinch, grinch grinch grinch.

[All the lights in the apartment turn off.]

Lily

Happy?! Now you've pissed off the big guy upstairs.

Yeah, i'm sure God cares if I-

GUGuy upstairs

You use that language again, and i'll turn off your water!
