S1 E21Milk

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

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.

S1 E22Come On

[Ted and Barney are in a library trying to recruit Barney's friend Penelope for a rain dance]

PPenelope

Why the hell should I help you?

Come on, I know it didn't work out between us, but we did have a relationship.

PPenelope

We had sex in your car twice and then you dumped me. How is that a relationship?

Twice!

PPenelope

[loudly] Barney, there is no way I'm- [student shushes her]

Seriously, come on.

Penelope, I really need to make it rain this weekend.

PPenelope

Why?

There's this girl-

PPenelope

Oh, there's this girl! You know the traditional rain dance is a sacred prayer to nature. I don't think the great spirit looks too kindly on white dudes who co-opt it to get laid.

But this is the girl I love! If it doesn't rain this weekend, she's gonna end up with the wrong guy!

PPenelope

This wrong guy. Is he a huge jackass?

Absolutely.

PPenelope

Kinda like Barney?

Kinda.

Hey!

PPenelope

You hit on my mom!

We weren't exclusive!

PPenelope

[To Ted] I'm in.

[Ted goes to Robin's apartment after the rains begin]

Robin! Hey! Robin! Oh, thank God you're here!

My camping trip got rained out!

I know, I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

Yeah, it is. Come down here.

But it's pouring! You come up!

No, you have to come down here!

Why?

Why? Because I MADE IT RAIN! That's what I did today! And that's enough! I..I've done my part, now get down here!

I'm not dressed, Ted! Come up!

I'm not coming up there, Robin. I'm not. You have to come down here!

[Robin contemplates going outside, looks at the blue French horn Ted gave her, and decides to go outside. She opens her door to find Ted.]

I was gonna...

I know. [Ted and Robin kiss]
