How I Met Your Mother S01E05 – Okay Awesome

Ted and Barney join Robin at a nightclub where she is on the VIP list. Meanwhile, Lily and Marshall host a wine and cheese tasting night with other couples at the apartment.

Robin has been invited by the club's owner to come to Okay, a new dance club. Ted and Barney agree to come, but Marshall and Lily are hosting a wine tasting party so that Marshall and Lily can begin to be more mature. Lily felt out of place when she found out that other couples their age are much more mature than they are. Ted and Barney go; Ted has agreed to meet Robin's friend Kelly, while Barney decides to find a "cutlet" and grind with her all night.

Marshall becomes very bored at the wine tasting party, and escapes by jumping out the bathroom window (although Future Ted questions whether this actually happened). Meanwhile, Robin cannot get in to the VIP area even though she was invited there. She leaves to call to try to get in the VIP area, and lets Marshall in to the club. However, Robin cannot get back in because a different guy is now a bouncer.

Ted becomes frustrated by the loud music, and starts yelling nonsense upon discovering that Kelly can't hear him anyway. This leads to him ruining his chances with her, as he yells "I'm wetting my pants!" just as the music suddenly shuts off; Future Ted notes that it was then he realized that clubs, in fact, sucked. Ted prepares to leave, but stays for a bit when Marshall arrives. They both get beers, but Marshall's elbow is bumped as he is drinking, and because he had a temporary crown put in earlier that day, Marshall is now in pain. Ted goes down to the coat check area to hang out with the coat check girl, while Marshall finds Barney, who suggests going to the bathroom to find some aspirin. When Marshall comes out of the bathroom, he is miraculously no longer in pain.

Meanwhile, Lily comes to the club, having also escaped from their party in the same manner as Marshall after she called him and heard the music of the club. Robin convinces Lily that she doesn't have to mature like the other couples, while Lily convinces Robin to flash their breasts at the bouncer to get back into the club (which works).

Inside, Barney has discovered that the "cutlet" he has been grinding with all night is actually his cousin, Leslie (after he finds out he makes Ted swear not to tell anyone ever). Barney tries to leave, but because Robin and Lily have returned, they stay for a bit, and Marshall and Lily dance at the club, while Robin, Ted, and Barney watch.
