How I Met Your Mother · Season 6, Episode 21

Barney and Jerry in “Hopeless”

[Barney talks to his father about how he settled down and how his life had been]

Barney

When I think about going for anything more than that, I look at my life and who I am. I'm too far gone. I'm broken.

Jerry

[looks back at Barney] Son, I was far more broken than you'll ever be...and look at me now. Don't get me wrong, settling down is a challenge - it's the biggest challenge of your life.

Barney

So how do you do it?

Jerry

A magician never reveals his greatest trick, but I'll give you a hint: you got to meet the right girl. Who knows, maybe you'll meet her tomorrow.

Barney

Maybe I've met her already.
