S8 E23Something Old

[Lily and Marshall ask Ted why he wants them to bring their old beanbag chair to Italy]

Ted, if this means so much to you, why don't you just take it for yourself?

No, it's important that you keep it.

Why?

This is the first thing we bought when we moved here after college. It was the only piece of furniture we had for a week, and now you two are moving to Italy. What if our friendship doesn't pass the "Have you used it in a year?" test? If you can throw out this chair, who's to say you can't throw me out too?

That could never happen.

You're not a chair, you are our best friend.

You can say that, but a lot can change in a year.

[Robin is stunned to finally uncover her old locket's box - with no locket for her "Something Old."]

This is a sign from the universe.

It's not a sign from the universe.

Yes it is! The locket, it's gone and you tell me that doesn't mean anything? You know this is a bad omen, Ted. You're Universe Guy.

And you're Skeptic Girl! You're not supposed to believe any of that.

Maybe I've grown skeptical of being skeptical. This is a sign!

It's not a sign, you're doing the right thing marrying Barney. The universe isn't sending you some message! [begins to rain] As we know from science, rain is liquid water in the form of droplets which have condensed from atmospheric vapor and precipitated - it's not a sign!

Ted, this is a sign and you know it! I mean the universe is screaming at me right now and how can you of all people tell me to ignore that?

Because maybe it's dumb to look for signs from the universe, maybe the universe has better things to do - and dear God, I hope it does. Do you know how many signs I've gotten, how I should and shouldn't be with someone? Where has it gotten me? Maybe there aren't any signs. Maybe a locket's just a locket; a chair's just a chair. Maybe we don't have to give meaning to every little thing. Maybe we don't need the universe to tell us what we really want. Maybe we already know that. Deep down. [Robin holds his hand]

S8 E24Something New

[Lily has seen a House For Sale sign at Ted's newly remodeled house]

Why would you move to Chicago?

Because it's the perfect town for me. I-it's like a Clevelandy New York and don't act like you haven't noticed. My hair excels in the wind. Besides, you're moving to Rome.

Yeah for a year and when we get back, we need you to be here waiting for us, hopefully in this house with your future bride.

What future bride?

The girl. She's out there walking around New York City right now, probably in a pair of really cute boots that she's gonna let me borrow whenever I want because we're the same size. She's out there, Ted.

Is she, really? Because I've looked. I've looked high and low for someone I can love and adore and cook waffles for. The closest I've come is Marshall.

He does love your waffles.

It's the cinnamon. I add cinnamon. She's not in New York. Maybe in Chicago.

[A girl with a yellow umbrella approaches a train ticket office]

GGirl

Hi. One ticket to Farhampton, please.
