How I Met Your Mother S07E07 – Noretta
Kevin helps the gang realize that their partners remind them of one of
their parents. Meanwhile, Barney and Nora's romantic evening doesn't go
the way they planned.
Future Ted recounts that in the fall of 2011, all of his friends were in a relationship, and remarks that with Barney's brother James in town, it made their MacLaren's booth very crowded.
In MacLaren's Pub, Barney tells the gang that tonight, after two months, he and Nora will finally sleep together, since she offered him a "special surprise" that night. However, as the night unfolds, several disasters take place that threaten to ruin the night. Nora loses a tooth while ice-skating, has a rat attack her on the streets of New York, and witnesses a suicide jumper off the roof of Barney's apartment building. However, despite all this, and Barney's worries that the night was ruined, the two of them still sleep together for the first time.
Back at MacLaren's, James Stinson expresses concerns that Nora is just like his Mom, Loretta Stinson. Kevin mentions that it's not uncommon to date people similar to your parents.
This causes a problem between Marshall and Lily. Lily feels she's not sexy anymore due to her pregnancy. This prompts Marshall to create a sensual board game, to help her feel sexy again. Lily's dad, Mickey Aldrin, is the only other person she knows that is as enthusiastic about board games as Marshall is. Remembering what Kevin said at the bar, Lily can't help but start thinking of Marshall as her Dad, completely ruining all the romantic things Marshall is trying to do.
On the other hand, Marshall realizes that Lily is just like his dad, further ruining the night.
Meanwhile, Kevin is concerned that Robin and Ted are too close, especially considering they are roommates and have a complicated past. Robin claims that she's only being particularly nice to Ted because he's so fragile; despite his desire to be married, he's currently single, and all his friends are dating. When Kevin confronts Ted, Ted tries to hold up a strong front, but eventually breaks down and reveals how vulnerable he is right now. Kevin takes pity on him and agrees to go to a Weird Al Yankovic concert with him, and the two become closer.
