How I Met Your Mother S09E07 – No Questions Asked
When Daphne sends a troubling text message to Lily, Marshall enlists the
gang’s help to remove the message while enforcing the “No Questions
Asked” rule.
On Friday at 11.30 PM, 42.5 hours before the wedding, Daphne has just texted Lily about Marshall taking his dream job as a judge in New York. When Lily calls, Marshall is relieved to learn that Lily has not read the message yet and is complaining that they have received room 13 at the Farhampton Inn. Room 13 is rumoured to be haunted by Captain Dearduff the Hooker, a supposed serial killer from 1843 who froze to death because his hook was stuck on the wall. Lily tries to get another room, but the receptionist Hamish keeps using Captain Dearduff as an excuse to all of Lily's complaints. Meanwhile, Barney plans to release 100 doves when he and Robin come out from the church. Unaware of Barney's plan, Robin mentions that the release of the doves would be problematic as her family will do a 21-gun salute with real bullets when they leave the church. Both Robin and Barney realize that they both always go on with their own plan without telling each other first.
That night, Lily has trouble sleeping and a stranger with a hook appears at her window, though it turns out to be Ted. It's revealed that Marshall called Ted to delete the text on in Lily's cellphone using his "No questions asked" that Ted owes Marshall after Marshall released him from a mailbox. Despite having been told the lock was broken, Ted insisted on climbing the drainpipe and entered Lily's room from the window. He manages to soothe Lily back to sleep by singing Marvin's lullaby, but his search is interrupted by Barney, who is in the air ducts leading to the room. As with Ted, Marshall had also asked Barney to delete the text message using another "No questions asked" Barney owes him from when he was trapped in a Macy's utility room with soiled pants and when Marshall had to discharge him from the hospital for swallowing real versions of lucky charms. Their subsequent arguing wakes Lily up, but they are interrupted by the arrival of food from room service. Because she did not request the food, Lily goes to confront the receptionist downstairs.
When Robin appears from under the food service cart, she reveals that Marshall also called her to delete the text on Lily's phone with a "No questions asked" she owed him when he helped her escape from a mysterious group who knew her as "Nightfalcon." When they try to find the phone, they realize that Lily has taken it with her downstairs. Barney and Robin manage to develop an overly complicated plan to take the phone while working together, resolving their issue with working alone. However, they are stunned to learn that Ted has already deleted the text by getting Lily to destroy her phone using a "No questions asked" she owed him when she had been tied up by her kindergarten class.
Ted calls Marshall and asks why he didn't use a "No questions asked" on Lily. Marshall explains that he never used one on Lily as he is always open and honest with her, making him realize he shouldn't be keeping his news from her. Using Ted's phone, Marshall tells Lily the truth about his new job. Lily is furious and tells Marshall that she never believed anyone died in their room, but somebody soon will. The final scene reveals how Ted got trapped in the mailbox: he had sent a sappy letter to a woman, then changed his mind almost immediately and tried to retrieve it. He saw the mailbox was unlocked and climbed in when the mailman passed, who ended up locking it with Ted still inside.
