How I Met Your Mother S08E14 – Ring Up!
Even though Ted has nothing in common with her, Barney begs Ted to continue seeing his much younger, much wilder girlfriend, until he learns who she is. Meanwhile, Robin must adjust to the power of her engagement ring.
While the others are at the bar, Ted walks in and starts telling them how he saved an old lady pinned under a cab. However, the others are paying more attention to the leather wristcuff he is wearing, which they start mocking. Ted tells them that he has a date because of the cuff, but she can't come in the bar, as she is only 20 years old. The others rush outside to see her, but Ted's gets a text and tells them that she had to leave to go to a flash mob. Ted tells them that he met her when he went to a leather cuff shop where she is the saleswoman. Ted later tells the gang after the next date that it was a total disaster. He tells them that he didn't understand half the words she said, they ate snacks consisting of weird food combinations, and she perceived him to to be much older than he really is. Although he thinks she is hot, Ted tells them that he has to end it.
While Ted is in bed, Barney comes to his bedroom and wakes him. He tells him that he has to sleep with his girlfriend. Barney explains that although he is in love with Robin and wants to be with her, his body is detoxing after years of one-night stands and that Ted has to proxy bang his girlfriend for him. However, Ted tells him that he has to connect with a girl at least a little in order for them to hook up. Barney asks him to find something simple to connect with his girlfriend. At their date, Ted tells Barney that he failed to connect with his girlfriend. However, when Ted is about to end thing with her, he hears her R2D2 ringtone, and realizes that she likes Star Wars like him. Later at the bar, Ted tells Barney that he hooked up with his girlfriend. He shows Barney a picture of her and Barney is shocked to see that Ted's girlfriend is his half-sister Carly. He becomes furious at Ted, ends their friendship and storms out of the bar. However, he later calls Ted and apologizes for over-reacting. He forgives Ted and invites him to his apartment to smoke cigars. While Ted is at Barney's apartment, Carly also arrives there, leaving both of them confused. He then arranges a shotgun wedding for them Barney tells him that if the don't get married, this will just be another one-night stand. Ted tells them that they are not getting married. But Barney tells them that they have to, otherwise Ted and Carly sleeping together is another "cheap, meaningless, disgusting" one-night stand. However, Ted realizes that Barney being opposed to one-night stands means that his detox is done and he is over one-night stands. Barney happily announces that he is free.
With Robin's engagement ring getting back from being re-sized, she starts wearing it in public. The next day she tells Marshall and Lily that while she usually gets free stuff, like her morning coffee and bagel, today was different; she had to pay for her stuff. Marshall and Lily tell her that her ring makes her invisible to men. Later at the bar, she has to wait her turn to get drinks (instead of guys letting her cut in front of them, as usual), which annoys her. She momentarily takes off her ring to get her drinks, but becomes invisible to the men at the bar when she wears it again. She tells Marshall and Lily that although she loves Barney, not getting attention by wearing the ring sucks. However, Marshall and Lily tell her that nothing beats the rush you get when "that one special person" looks at you and everyone else becomes invisible. Later that night, Robin understands the true power of her ring when she looks at Barney and everything else becomes invisible when she looks at him. Marshall asks her how she is going to get a drink at the bar now, and she tells him that she knows a way that will last forever. She then asks Barney to get her drink for her.
Meanwhile, when Marshall wears Ted's leather wristcuff, Lily asks him to take it off as he looks like some loser from a band. However she gets turned on by it and they start kissing. Later at the bar, Robin notices that Marshall's wrist has swollen as an allergic reaction to the cuff. She asks him why he doesn't take it off, but he replies that after having a child, anything that gets you close to having sex is worth the pain. Later, Lily notices Marshall's swollen hand and asks him to take the cuff off. Marshall says that he doesn't want to as it will stop they sex they have been having recently, but Lily tells him that he doesn't need a cuff for her to find him sexy. Later, Lily gets a pair of elastic waistband jeans by mistake. Marshall says that she looks like a suburban mom, which he gets turned on by and they start kissing again.
