How I Met Your Mother S06E24 – Challenge Accepted
Robin and Barney bond when they stop Ted from getting back together with
an ex (until they run into Nora), and Marshall and Lily watch a ticking
clock as he fears that he soon will be the victim of food poisoning.
Due to Marshall feeling down, Lily
decides to get them both some of their favorite soup from the Blue
Bowl, a local soup-ery. But shortly after eating it, Lily gets sick and
begins throwing up. Desperate to stop Marshall from eating any, after an
attempt to call him, she runs from the school to meet him at the house.
She stops him just before he takes a bite... of his third bowl.
Marshall has an important business meeting with a prospective
employer and has a countdown set to when he'll begin vomiting as well.
While at the meeting, he resists vomiting, despite a plethora of
disgusting images and stories that the employer tells. Eventually, he
gives up and tells the employer he is set to vomit soon and runs out of
the room.
Discouraged that he probably blew his chance at his dream job, he
comes home and just wants to get some rest before his "countdown"
finishes. He awakes in the morning to find out that he hadn't gotten
sick at all; only then strikes the fact, Lily is actually pregnant, and
had morning sickness.
Meanwhile, Barney and Ted are arguing about who is going to push the button to demolish the Arcadian. Just
then, he is made in charge of deciding what bulb to choose for the
50,000 bulbs that are to be used in the new GNB headquarters. Unable to
make a decision on what light bulb to use and searching for help
desperately, he runs into Zoey
who is down on her luck following their breakup. She asks him if he
wants to get coffee, and subsequently tells him she wants to get back
together. He decides to meet with her and buys her an orchid, like he
first did for her. However, despite arriving half an hour ahead of
Barney and Robin,
Ted is held up as he wants to give the "perfect orchid" and wastes half
an hour searching for it. Barney and Robin stop him before he can meet
Zoey and convince
him not to do so because it is a bad idea. So he passes the flower to
an old lady and asks her to give it to the blonde girl sitting in the
cafe but a random blonde receives the flower by mistake.
When it is time to demolish the Arcadian, Barney gives Ted the
button, because he earned it. Ted, Robin, and Barney watch the Arcadian
fall to the ground.
Soon after, Barney meets Nora again, and seems to desire reconciliation. Robin looks at the two longingly, implying unresolved feelings for Barney.
Finally, the scene cuts to the wedding that Ted is the best man
at. He is called by Lily to help the groom, and the groom is revealed to
be Barney.
