NARRATOR:
Oh, sorry, kids.
6
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:43,880
I forgot to mention
there's a bit of a backstory
7
00:00:43,882 --> 00:00:45,716
to this particular slap.
8
00:00:45,718 --> 00:00:46,900
Oh, man.
9
00:00:46,902 --> 00:00:48,518
Oh.
10
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,787
At least it landed
on the mustard stain.
11
00:00:50,789 --> 00:00:53,390
Don't bother.
That suit is a stain.
12
00:00:53,392 --> 00:00:56,359
A stain on the very institution
of suits.
13
00:00:56,361 --> 00:00:57,894
You know what tie goes
with that suit?
14
00:00:57,896 --> 00:01:00,047
The tie at the top
of a Hefty bag.
15
00:01:00,049 --> 00:01:01,231
A suit like that
16
00:01:01,233 --> 00:01:03,667
only needs one button...
self-destruct.
17
00:01:03,669 --> 00:01:04,851
Hey, I bought him
that suit.
18
00:01:04,853 --> 00:01:06,536
Where? Barfs Brothers?
19
00:01:07,205 --> 00:01:09,106
Men's Outhouse?
20
00:01:09,108 --> 00:01:11,341
Giorgio Arms...
Are-Not-the-Same-Lengthy?
21
00:01:12,527 --> 00:01:15,645
That suit is a slap in the face
to all suits everywhere.
22
00:01:15,647 --> 00:01:17,898
A slap in the face.
23
00:01:17,900 --> 00:01:19,900
Uh, yes, Barney.
24
00:01:19,902 --> 00:01:22,569
There's something I need to
tell you about the next slap
25
00:01:22,571 --> 00:01:23,870
that you're going to receive.
26
00:01:23,872 --> 00:01:24,988
You see,
27
00:01:24,990 --> 00:01:26,773
I want this slap to be
28
00:01:26,775 --> 00:01:29,910
as painful as
humanly possible.
29
00:01:29,912 --> 00:01:31,812
BOTH: Sure. Sure.
Okay, okay.
30
00:01:31,814 --> 00:01:33,647
Yeah, I'm gonna stop you
right there.
31
00:01:33,649 --> 00:01:37,167
Yes, you won a slap bet
with me seven years ago.
32
00:01:37,169 --> 00:01:38,552
And, yes, over the years,
33
00:01:38,554 --> 00:01:40,720
you got in some great slaps.
34
00:01:40,722 --> 00:01:43,423
Some great slaps.
35
00:01:43,425 --> 00:01:44,491
But here's the problem.
36
00:01:44,493 --> 00:01:46,593
You've tormented me so much
37
00:01:46,595 --> 00:01:48,295
that I am now immune to it.
38
00:01:48,297 --> 00:01:49,162
Hmm.
It's as if
39
00:01:49,164 --> 00:01:52,265
my face, my psyche, my soul
40
00:01:52,267 --> 00:01:54,501
were covered
in that numbing cream
41
00:01:54,503 --> 00:01:56,837
we all put on our deals
so that we can go all night.
42
00:01:56,839 --> 00:01:58,054
Am I right, fellas?
43
00:01:59,607 --> 00:02:02,742
Okay, we'll all just pretend
like we've never done that.
44
00:02:02,744 --> 00:02:06,046
Just like we've never sat on our
left hand until it fell asleep
45
00:02:06,048 --> 00:02:08,148
and then used it
for an away gamer.
46
00:02:08,850 --> 00:02:10,033
Okay.
47
00:02:10,035 --> 00:02:11,034
We'll all pretend
48
00:02:11,036 --> 00:02:12,169
like we've never done that.
49
00:02:12,171 --> 00:02:13,136
Just like we've all never taken
50
00:02:13,138 --> 00:02:14,905
two live jumper cables...
51
00:02:14,907 --> 00:02:16,373
Please stop.
52
00:02:16,375 --> 00:02:17,958
Barney, I'm well-aware
that you've developed
53
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,076
a resistance to all
of my old tricks,
54
00:02:20,078 --> 00:02:23,313
which is why I sought
out special training.
55
00:02:23,315 --> 00:02:26,533
Hi, hey, I'm sure you get
this question all the time.
56
00:02:26,535 --> 00:02:29,619
But is there a special class
where I just learn slapping?
57
00:02:29,621 --> 00:02:31,304
We teach kung fu here.
58
00:02:31,306 --> 00:02:33,122
Right, see,
the thing is, I don't need
59
00:02:33,124 --> 00:02:34,608
to learn anything about kicking.
60
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:35,425
You know?
61
00:02:35,427 --> 00:02:37,144
'Cause, uh...
62
00:02:38,596 --> 00:02:39,646
So, yeah.
63
00:02:39,648 --> 00:02:41,681
I'm good there.
64
00:02:41,683 --> 00:02:43,517
Um, what I really need
to learn is slapping.
65
00:02:43,519 --> 00:02:45,969
I need someone to teach me
how to slap my friend
66
00:02:45,971 --> 00:02:49,105
just like really hard
right in his stupid face.
67
00:02:49,107 --> 00:02:50,307
Can you teach me that?
68
00:02:50,309 --> 00:02:53,276
Kung fu is an ancient
and honorable martial art.
69
00:02:53,278 --> 00:02:54,561
It must be learned
with great devotion
70
00:02:54,563 --> 00:02:57,280
and respect.
71
00:02:58,449 --> 00:03:00,534
So, where are we on this
whole slapping thing?
72
00:03:00,536 --> 00:03:02,002
Yes, no, maybe...?
Get out.
73
00:03:04,422 --> 00:03:05,505
Psst.
74
00:03:05,507 --> 00:03:07,340
I know what you seek.
75
00:03:07,342 --> 00:03:08,608
You seek to learn
76
00:03:08,610 --> 00:03:10,427
the Slap of a Thousand
77
00:03:10,429 --> 00:03:12,429
Exploding Suns.
78
00:03:12,431 --> 00:03:14,664
Yes, that's totally
a thing I've heard of.
79
00:03:14,666 --> 00:03:16,049
Can you teach me?
80
00:03:16,051 --> 00:03:18,167
No, but I know who can.
81
00:03:18,169 --> 00:03:20,053
Can you take me
to this great master?
82
00:03:20,055 --> 00:03:21,304
I have much gold.
83
00:03:21,306 --> 00:03:24,975
It is not one great master
you seek but three.
84
00:03:24,977 --> 00:03:26,175
They will teach you
85
00:03:26,177 --> 00:03:29,779
the three mighty virtues
of slapistry.
86
00:03:29,781 --> 00:03:30,730
Speed.
87
00:03:31,799 --> 00:03:33,316
Strength.
88
00:03:33,318 --> 00:03:36,770
And accuracy.
89
00:03:36,772 --> 00:03:39,022
Put these
three virtues together,
90
00:03:39,024 --> 00:03:41,691
and only then
will you have mastered
91
00:03:41,693 --> 00:03:43,860
the Slap of a Million
92
00:03:43,862 --> 00:03:47,264
Exploding Suns.
93
00:03:47,266 --> 00:03:49,165
I'm sorry to interrupt,
but a second ago,
94
00:03:49,167 --> 00:03:51,835
wasn't it the Slap
of a Thousand Exploding Suns?
95
00:03:51,837 --> 00:03:54,104
Pretty sure I said a million, guys?
I heard a million.
96
00:03:54,106 --> 00:03:55,338
He said a million.
One million.
97
00:03:55,340 --> 00:03:57,674
MARSHALL:
So I went to Shanghai...
98
00:03:57,676 --> 00:03:58,775
You didn't go to Shanghai.
99
00:03:58,777 --> 00:03:59,576
I went to Shanghai.
100
00:03:59,578 --> 00:04:00,427
When did you go to Shanghai?
101
00:04:00,429 --> 00:04:01,561
Last year I went
to Shanghai.
102
00:04:01,563 --> 00:04:02,362
You didn't go to Shanghai.
103
00:04:02,364 --> 00:04:03,630
He went to Shanghai.
104
00:04:03,632 --> 00:04:05,248
He didn't go to Shanghai.
Totally went to Shanghai.
105
00:04:05,250 --> 00:04:05,916
You didn't go to Shanghai.
106
00:04:05,918 --> 00:04:06,816
So I went to Shanghai.
107
00:04:08,786 --> 00:04:11,571
In search of the first master.
108
00:04:13,441 --> 00:04:16,409
Are you Red Bird?
109
00:04:21,866 --> 00:04:24,317
BARNEY:
Okay, enough.
110
00:04:24,319 --> 00:04:25,852
I know you're trying
to freak me out.
111
00:04:25,854 --> 00:04:27,454
But like I said,
it's not working.
112
00:04:27,456 --> 00:04:29,556
So I will give you much gold
113
00:04:29,558 --> 00:04:31,424
to stop wasting my time.
114
00:04:31,426 --> 00:04:33,476
Hold that thought, I just want
to see if can fix this.
115
00:04:33,478 --> 00:04:35,045
(song skipping)
116
00:04:35,047 --> 00:04:37,213
(groans)
117
00:04:41,936 --> 00:04:43,053
(all gasp)
118
00:04:43,055 --> 00:04:44,387
ALL:
The Slap of...
119
00:04:44,389 --> 00:04:45,939
Ten Million Exploding Suns!
500 Exploding Suns!
120
00:04:45,941 --> 00:04:47,223
Three Billion Exploding Stars!
121
00:04:48,225 --> 00:04:50,777
Whoops.
122
00:04:54,449 --> 00:04:55,583
(chuckles)
123
00:04:55,585 --> 00:04:57,051
(sighs)
124
00:04:57,053 --> 00:04:59,253
(gasps)
125
00:04:59,255 --> 00:05:01,839
Relax, I'm not gonna
slap you right now.
126
00:05:01,841 --> 00:05:03,240
(grunts)
127
00:05:03,242 --> 00:05:06,710
When I slap you, it shall be
beneath a willow tree
128
00:05:06,712 --> 00:05:10,598
next to four women and a tiger.
129
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,933
A willow tree,
four women and a tiger?
130
00:05:12,935 --> 00:05:14,351
What are you talking about?
131
00:05:14,353 --> 00:05:17,438
Who said anything about a willow
tree, four women and a tiger?
132
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,739
Guys?
Nobody.
133
00:05:18,741 --> 00:05:20,040
A tiger?
You were totally silent just now.
134
00:05:20,042 --> 00:05:22,476
But Marshall just said that!
135
00:05:22,478 --> 00:05:23,544
What is going on?
136
00:05:23,546 --> 00:05:26,280
How did you do that
to the jukebox?
137
00:05:26,282 --> 00:05:28,749
Wait, it's fake.
138
00:05:28,751 --> 00:05:30,818
That's a prop jukebox,
139
00:05:30,820 --> 00:05:32,987
designed just to mess with me.
140
00:05:32,989 --> 00:05:35,389
Marshall, that jukebox
cost eight grand.
141
00:05:36,174 --> 00:05:38,626
I have much gold.
142
00:05:40,912 --> 00:05:42,596
Huh, that is much.
143
00:05:43,215 --> 00:05:44,682
You got lucky, Eriksen.
144
00:05:45,667 --> 00:05:47,451
I don't like this!
145
00:05:47,453 --> 00:05:49,270
I thought that nothing
I said or did
146
00:05:49,272 --> 00:05:50,721
could intimidate you anymore.
147
00:05:50,723 --> 00:05:52,690
(stammers)
That's right.
148
00:05:52,692 --> 00:05:54,492
It can't.
149
00:05:54,494 --> 00:05:56,677
(sniffs)
(yells)
150
00:05:56,679 --> 00:05:57,628
Itch.
151
00:05:57,630 --> 00:05:58,729
Look.
152
00:05:58,731 --> 00:06:00,114
If you're really nervous,
153
00:06:00,116 --> 00:06:01,816
don't think of it as a slap.
154
00:06:01,818 --> 00:06:04,218
Think of it as a high five.
Okay.
155
00:06:04,220 --> 00:06:06,170
For your stupid face.
(Barney crying)
156
00:06:06,172 --> 00:06:07,338
So, anyway, I'm in
the noodle house...
157
00:06:07,340 --> 00:06:08,522
I'll admit.
158
00:06:08,524 --> 00:06:09,957
I didn't expect Red Bird,
159
00:06:09,959 --> 00:06:13,744
Master of Speed, to be a girl.
160
00:06:13,746 --> 00:06:15,379
You sure you really
know how to...?
161
00:06:15,381 --> 00:06:17,882
What is the sound
of one hand slapping?
162
00:06:17,884 --> 00:06:20,384
I'm sorry, I don't understa...
163
00:06:20,386 --> 00:06:22,002
(slap)
164
00:06:22,954 --> 00:06:24,621
Wait, how did you...?
165
00:06:24,623 --> 00:06:25,806
(slap)
166
00:06:27,309 --> 00:06:28,509
Lucky shot, I wasn't ready...
167
00:06:28,511 --> 00:06:29,727
(slap)
168
00:06:31,446 --> 00:06:33,180
You know, that tip
isn't a full 20%...
169
00:06:33,182 --> 00:06:34,732
(two slaps)
170
00:06:36,234 --> 00:06:37,818
Train me, Red Bird.
171
00:06:37,820 --> 00:06:39,220
Teach me speed.
172
00:06:39,222 --> 00:06:40,488
No.
173
00:06:40,490 --> 00:06:42,256
I retired long ago.
174
00:06:42,258 --> 00:06:44,058
Retired? You're like, 32.
175
00:06:44,060 --> 00:06:45,860
I am 86 years old.
176
00:06:46,695 --> 00:06:48,095
But slapping is now
177
00:06:48,097 --> 00:06:49,363
a part of my past.
178
00:06:49,365 --> 00:06:53,250
Darn, I really wanted
to slap Barney Stinson.
179
00:06:53,252 --> 00:06:54,869
This is to slap Barney Stinson?
180
00:06:54,871 --> 00:06:56,704
Yeah, okay.
181
00:06:56,706 --> 00:06:58,956
I'll totally teach you.
182
00:06:58,958 --> 00:07:00,991
MARSHALL:
And so began my training.
183
00:07:00,993 --> 00:07:04,161
Slap this tree.
184
00:07:04,163 --> 00:07:05,162
Slap the tree?
185
00:07:05,164 --> 00:07:06,931
If you can.
186
00:07:09,301 --> 00:07:11,218
I mean...
187
00:07:11,220 --> 00:07:12,853
Seems pretty easy.
188
00:07:17,526 --> 00:07:18,926
Ooh!
189
00:07:18,928 --> 00:07:20,528
What the...?
190
00:07:21,679 --> 00:07:23,864
Ooh!
191
00:07:23,866 --> 00:07:26,483
The fabled Slapping Tree
192
00:07:26,485 --> 00:07:28,536
of Gongqing Forest.
193
00:07:28,538 --> 00:07:29,520
BARNEY:
Beg your pardon.
194
00:07:29,522 --> 00:07:31,522
The "Fabled Slapping Tree
195
00:07:31,524 --> 00:07:34,542
of Gongqing Forest"?
Sure.
196
00:07:34,544 --> 00:07:36,460
Really? "Fabled."
Mmm.
197
00:07:36,462 --> 00:07:38,112
'Cause I've never heard of it.
198
00:07:38,114 --> 00:07:39,079
I'm pretty sure
everybody's heard of it.
199
00:07:39,081 --> 00:07:40,331
Guys?
Yup.
200
00:07:40,333 --> 00:07:41,966
Totally, yeah.
I backpacked there in college.
201
00:07:41,968 --> 00:07:42,900
See?
202
00:07:42,902 --> 00:07:44,385
Fabled.
It even inspired
203
00:07:44,387 --> 00:07:46,720
a popular Chinese
children's book.
204
00:07:47,956 --> 00:07:49,423
It's a poignant parable
205
00:07:49,425 --> 00:07:52,810
whose message, is if you
love someone, set them free.
206
00:07:53,511 --> 00:07:54,979
But not before first
207
00:07:54,981 --> 00:07:57,548
slapping them right
in their stupid face.
208
00:07:58,350 --> 00:08:00,184
As my training continued,
209
00:08:00,186 --> 00:08:03,487
I also learned the delicate art
of Chinese painting.
210
00:08:05,073 --> 00:08:07,057
That looks nothing
like this bowl of fruit!
211
00:08:09,194 --> 00:08:10,544
MARSHALL:
My training went on for a year.
212
00:08:10,546 --> 00:08:12,229
A year?
A year.
213
00:08:12,231 --> 00:08:14,031
One year?
None of us noticed
214
00:08:14,033 --> 00:08:16,867
you were stuck in Shanghai
for a year?
215
00:08:16,869 --> 00:08:18,568
I wasn't being held slaptive,
216
00:08:18,570 --> 00:08:20,971
I chose to stay and
complete my training.
217
00:08:20,973 --> 00:08:23,123
I'm not even gonna...
218
00:08:23,125 --> 00:08:24,592
Just, whatever.
219
00:08:25,377 --> 00:08:26,477
You have shown great slaptitude,
220
00:08:26,479 --> 00:08:28,045
young one.
221
00:08:28,047 --> 00:08:30,581
You are ready
for your final test.
222
00:08:30,583 --> 00:08:32,783
Slap me.
223
00:08:32,785 --> 00:08:33,917
What?
224
00:08:33,919 --> 00:08:34,852
Slap me, now!
225
00:08:34,854 --> 00:08:36,604
No, Red Bird, I can't.
226
00:08:36,606 --> 00:08:38,038
Slap me-- that is not a request.
227
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:38,839
I won't!
228
00:08:38,841 --> 00:08:39,773
The Vikings will never
229
00:08:39,775 --> 00:08:41,591
win the Super Bo...
(slap)
230
00:08:42,427 --> 00:08:44,144
Wait, how did you...?
(slap)
231
00:08:44,146 --> 00:08:45,095
Lucky shot.
232
00:08:45,097 --> 00:08:46,680
I wasn't re...
(slap)
233
00:08:46,682 --> 00:08:47,881
That's a big tip.
234
00:08:47,883 --> 00:08:48,932
You must have much gold.
235
00:08:48,934 --> 00:08:50,985
(two slaps)
236
00:08:50,987 --> 00:08:53,504
You are ready
for your final step.
237
00:08:53,506 --> 00:08:55,105
Awesome! Oh, man!
238
00:08:55,107 --> 00:08:57,107
I can't wait
to slap Barney Stinson
239
00:08:57,109 --> 00:08:58,775
right across his stupid fa...
240
00:08:58,777 --> 00:09:00,961
(slapping)
241
00:09:02,464 --> 00:09:04,965
What? What did I say?
242
00:09:04,967 --> 00:09:07,685
You must not slap anyone
until your training is complete.
243
00:09:07,687 --> 00:09:10,054
The consequences could be dire.
244
00:09:10,056 --> 00:09:13,273
First, you must meet
White Flower,
245
00:09:13,275 --> 00:09:16,794
the second master,
who will teach you strength.
246
00:09:16,796 --> 00:09:18,412
She lives atop a mountain.
247
00:09:18,414 --> 00:09:19,496
Which mountain?
248
00:09:19,498 --> 00:09:22,599
No, not Witch Mountain.
249
00:09:22,601 --> 00:09:24,551
Slap Mountain.
250
00:09:24,553 --> 00:09:27,855
BARNEY: Hate to cut in
again here, but...
251
00:09:27,857 --> 00:09:30,157
Slap Mountain?
That's right.
252
00:09:30,159 --> 00:09:32,009
You're claiming there's
a mountain in China
253
00:09:32,011 --> 00:09:34,611
in the exact shape of a hand?
254
00:09:34,613 --> 00:09:35,612
Everyone knows that.
255
00:09:35,614 --> 00:09:36,646
Right, guys?
True.
256
00:09:36,648 --> 00:09:38,399
Totally.
I backpacked there in college.
257
00:09:38,401 --> 00:09:41,035
It's the largest
of the Slappalachian Mountains.
258
00:09:41,037 --> 00:09:42,219
(groans)
259
00:09:42,221 --> 00:09:43,420
And at the top...
260
00:09:47,759 --> 00:09:49,493
Excuse me? Uh, do you know
261
00:09:49,495 --> 00:09:51,562
where I can find White Flower?
262
00:09:52,647 --> 00:09:55,299
How dare you speak that name?
263
00:09:55,301 --> 00:09:58,719
That is the most feared name
in 40 villages!
264
00:09:58,721 --> 00:10:01,105
Really? "White Flower"?
265
00:10:01,107 --> 00:10:03,307
I'm sorry, it's just,
it's not exactly Voldemort.
266
00:10:03,309 --> 00:10:04,375
Bro!
267
00:10:04,377 --> 00:10:05,976
Why don't yo
just say "Candyman"
268
00:10:05,978 --> 00:10:07,344
three times and be done with it?
269
00:10:07,346 --> 00:10:08,562
Geez!
270
00:10:16,104 --> 00:10:18,322
(fly buzzing)
271
00:10:22,277 --> 00:10:24,411
Awesome!
272
00:10:24,413 --> 00:10:26,497
Can-can you teach me
how to do that?
273
00:10:26,499 --> 00:10:29,316
No, I retired
from teaching long ago.
274
00:10:29,318 --> 00:10:30,934
Retired? You're like, 32.
275
00:10:30,936 --> 00:10:33,253
I am 106 years old.
276
00:10:33,255 --> 00:10:35,122
What is in these noodles?
277
00:10:35,124 --> 00:10:37,725
I'm sorry,
but my slapping days are over.
278
00:10:37,727 --> 00:10:39,876
Darn, I really wanted
279
00:10:39,878 --> 00:10:43,280
this next Barney Stinson slap
to be special.
280
00:10:43,282 --> 00:10:44,932
This is to slap Barney Stinson?
Mmm.
281
00:10:44,934 --> 00:10:46,984
Yeah, okay,
I'll totally teach you.
282
00:10:49,871 --> 00:10:51,438
The true power of any slap
283
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,507
comes from the anger behind it.
284
00:10:53,509 --> 00:10:56,226
So for a truly devastating slap,
285
00:10:56,228 --> 00:10:59,263
you must harvest
the anger of many.
286
00:10:59,265 --> 00:11:00,597
Every time
287
00:11:00,599 --> 00:11:03,450
someone who hates Barney
slaps you in the face,
288
00:11:03,452 --> 00:11:07,121
the power of their anger goes
from your face
289
00:11:07,123 --> 00:11:08,589
into your hand.
290
00:11:11,092 --> 00:11:13,994
MARSHALL: White Flower and I made love
that night in the forest.
291
00:11:13,996 --> 00:11:16,063
No, sorry. Flag on the play.
292
00:11:16,065 --> 00:11:17,765
You banged White Flower?
293
00:11:17,767 --> 00:11:20,601
I made love to White Flower.
294
00:11:20,603 --> 00:11:22,753
And then I banged her.
295
00:11:22,755 --> 00:11:23,687
In the forest?
296
00:11:23,689 --> 00:11:25,689
In Gongqing Forest, yes.
297
00:11:25,691 --> 00:11:28,609
Actually right near
the Slapping Tree.
298
00:11:28,611 --> 00:11:31,612
Which may or may not
have come into play.
299
00:11:31,614 --> 00:11:32,863
Oh, my God,
you had a tree-way?
300
00:11:34,933 --> 00:11:37,167
And, Lily, you were okay
with Marshall having an affair?
301
00:11:37,169 --> 00:11:39,203
What happens
in the magical Gongqing Forest
302
00:11:39,205 --> 00:11:41,405
stays in the magical
Gongqing Forest.
303
00:11:41,407 --> 00:11:43,307
Best wife ever.
304
00:11:44,309 --> 00:11:45,626
Like I was saying,
305
00:11:45,628 --> 00:11:47,377
you need to harvest the anger
306
00:11:47,379 --> 00:11:49,196
of others into your own slap.
307
00:11:49,198 --> 00:11:50,214
Now, dig deep.
308
00:11:50,216 --> 00:11:52,749
Can you think of anyone,
309
00:11:52,751 --> 00:11:54,168
anyone at all
310
00:11:54,170 --> 00:11:56,620
who hates Barney Stinson?
311
00:11:57,405 --> 00:11:59,189
(both laughing)
312
00:12:00,892 --> 00:12:02,926
I know, I know, I almost
couldn't get through it
313
00:12:02,928 --> 00:12:04,228
with a straight face!
314
00:12:04,230 --> 00:12:06,430
There are just so many people
315
00:12:06,432 --> 00:12:08,982
who hate Barney's guts!
316
00:12:10,134 --> 00:12:12,135
Moving on.
317
00:12:12,137 --> 00:12:13,470
(sighs)
318
00:12:13,472 --> 00:12:16,023
The point is, you need
to go get slapped in the face
319
00:12:16,025 --> 00:12:18,659
by a bunch of gullible chicks
Barney banged.
320
00:12:18,661 --> 00:12:20,911
I'm a friend
of Barney Stinson. Ooh!
321
00:12:20,913 --> 00:12:22,496
I'm a friend of Barney Stins...
322
00:12:22,498 --> 00:12:24,814
I-I'm-I'm a friend
of Barney Stinson. Aah!
323
00:12:24,816 --> 00:12:25,916
Ooh!
324
00:12:25,918 --> 00:12:26,884
I'm so sorry.
325
00:12:26,886 --> 00:12:27,918
I thought you said you were
326
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:28,936
a friend of Barney Stinson.
327
00:12:28,938 --> 00:12:30,487
I did. Ooh!
328
00:12:30,489 --> 00:12:31,538
Oh!
329
00:12:31,540 --> 00:12:35,158
Ooh! Wow!
330
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,595
Could you... also...
331
00:12:38,597 --> 00:12:41,215
slap me in the face?
332
00:12:41,217 --> 00:12:43,734
God, you're just
as perverted as Barney.
333
00:12:43,736 --> 00:12:45,769
Ooh!
334
00:12:45,771 --> 00:12:47,855
(groans)
335
00:12:47,857 --> 00:12:50,107
And after a while...
336
00:12:54,279 --> 00:12:56,613
Look at this thing--
it's all hot and glowy!
337
00:12:56,615 --> 00:12:59,182
I'll never have
cold pizza again!
338
00:12:59,184 --> 00:13:01,869
I'll never have cold pizza
again.
339
00:13:01,871 --> 00:13:02,586
Silence!
340
00:13:02,588 --> 00:13:04,037
Sorry, White Flower.
341
00:13:04,039 --> 00:13:05,689
I've just got
a slappetite for destruction.
342
00:13:05,691 --> 00:13:06,856
Thanks for everything!
343
00:13:06,858 --> 00:13:08,075
I'm gonna go slap Barney Stinson
344
00:13:08,077 --> 00:13:09,493
right in his stupid face!
345
00:13:09,495 --> 00:13:12,045
Wait, first you must
go learn accuracy
346
00:13:12,047 --> 00:13:14,381
from the one who is called
The Calligrapher
347
00:13:14,383 --> 00:13:17,534
in the far-off,
mystical land of...
348
00:13:19,671 --> 00:13:21,071
Cleveland?
Cleveland.
349
00:13:21,073 --> 00:13:22,389
Why Cleveland?
350
00:13:22,391 --> 00:13:23,640
It's the city equivalent
351
00:13:23,642 --> 00:13:25,375
of being slapped in the face.
352
00:13:25,377 --> 00:13:26,593
Bro.
353
00:13:26,595 --> 00:13:29,963
Man, is this place
a chain or something?
354
00:13:29,965 --> 00:13:30,931
One for dinner?
355
00:13:30,933 --> 00:13:34,902
No, I'm here to meet her.
356
00:13:34,904 --> 00:13:37,888
Bro.
357
00:13:42,293 --> 00:13:43,810
Can you teach me accuracy?
358
00:13:43,812 --> 00:13:45,345
I can.
359
00:13:45,347 --> 00:13:47,614
The proper question is: will I?
360
00:13:47,616 --> 00:13:49,583
Grammar is the first step
361
00:13:49,585 --> 00:13:52,636
on the thousand-mile journey
to accuracy.
362
00:13:52,638 --> 00:13:56,490
I'm, uh, assuming there's
no Mrs. The Calligrapher?
363
00:13:56,492 --> 00:13:58,926
The path I've chosen
is lonesome.
364
00:13:58,928 --> 00:14:00,043
But it's no big deal.
365
00:14:00,045 --> 00:14:02,078
I prefer being alone,
I really do.
366
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,580
Unless you know
any single ladies
367
00:14:03,582 --> 00:14:05,015
you-you-you could
set me up with.
368
00:14:05,017 --> 00:14:08,084
Nope.
Good, because I prefer being alone.
369
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,070
Also I'm sorry,
370
00:14:10,072 --> 00:14:13,507
but I retired
from teaching long ago.
371
00:14:13,509 --> 00:14:15,042
Retired? You're like, 35.
372
00:14:15,044 --> 00:14:17,444
(groans)
I'm 34.
373
00:14:17,446 --> 00:14:18,445
Oh, sorry.
374
00:14:18,447 --> 00:14:20,147
I use moisturizer every night.
375
00:14:20,149 --> 00:14:22,616
I thought my skin
still looked vibrant.
376
00:14:22,618 --> 00:14:23,917
It does, it does.
377
00:14:23,919 --> 00:14:25,402
Look, uh, I'm just...
378
00:14:25,404 --> 00:14:27,738
I'm really just here
to finish my training,
379
00:14:27,740 --> 00:14:29,790
um, so, the, uh,
look, the truth is,
380
00:14:29,792 --> 00:14:32,909
I have a divorced cousin
just outside of Akron.
381
00:14:32,911 --> 00:14:35,879
Now, I wouldn't call Janice
easy on the eyes--
382
00:14:35,881 --> 00:14:38,081
or the springs
of a bathroom scale--
383
00:14:38,083 --> 00:14:40,500
but if you want,
I could set you up.
384
00:14:40,502 --> 00:14:42,502
Sold! Now, the most
important lesson
385
00:14:42,504 --> 00:14:44,755
in learning accuracy...
(choking)
386
00:14:49,811 --> 00:14:52,128
He was dying right
before my eyes.
387
00:14:52,130 --> 00:14:55,032
So I did the only thing
that I could think to do.
388
00:14:55,034 --> 00:14:57,901
(stammers)
Please!
389
00:14:57,903 --> 00:14:59,569
I slapped his back.
390
00:14:59,571 --> 00:15:00,804
And that's when I found out why
391
00:15:00,806 --> 00:15:03,073
"No slapping until
your training is complete"
392
00:15:03,075 --> 00:15:05,075
is the most important rule.
393
00:15:05,077 --> 00:15:06,943
Because my slap...
394
00:15:06,945 --> 00:15:09,646
was too powerful.
395
00:15:09,648 --> 00:15:12,082
I hadn't learned accuracy
396
00:15:12,084 --> 00:15:14,785
and so I couldn't control it.
397
00:15:14,787 --> 00:15:16,169
And, well...
398
00:15:25,229 --> 00:15:28,749
No!
399
00:15:28,751 --> 00:15:30,650
Stop it! Just stop!
400
00:15:30,652 --> 00:15:33,937
You did not slap the heart
out of a man's body!
401
00:15:33,939 --> 00:15:35,889
If only that were true.
402
00:15:35,891 --> 00:15:38,225
You're saying
that you committed a murder?
403
00:15:38,227 --> 00:15:40,009
I was trying to save him!
404
00:15:40,011 --> 00:15:42,512
Shh, baby, it's okay,
you didn't mean to.
405
00:15:42,514 --> 00:15:43,697
He doesn't sleep.
406
00:15:43,699 --> 00:15:44,848
You got to move on.
You were only trying to help.
407
00:15:44,850 --> 00:15:46,917
You're making
this whole story up.
408
00:15:46,919 --> 00:15:48,852
I wish that I were.
409
00:15:48,854 --> 00:15:50,370
Because of the tragedy,
410
00:15:50,372 --> 00:15:51,538
I never got to
finish my training.
411
00:15:51,540 --> 00:15:54,207
I never learned accuracy.
412
00:15:54,209 --> 00:15:57,244
Because of that,
I shall remain...
413
00:15:57,246 --> 00:15:59,329
forever...
414
00:15:59,331 --> 00:16:02,332
a mere slapprentice.
415
00:16:02,334 --> 00:16:04,084
What does that mean, baby?
416
00:16:04,086 --> 00:16:05,719
NARRATOR:
Here's what it meant.
417
00:16:05,721 --> 00:16:08,422
("O Fortuna" playing)
418
00:16:13,694 --> 00:16:14,845
(Barney gasps)
419
00:16:14,847 --> 00:16:15,896
(yelling)
420
00:16:15,898 --> 00:16:17,881
Damn it!
421
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,205
Please! Somebody!
422
00:16:21,251 --> 00:16:22,917
Help me!
423
00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:26,837
There's a crazy guy trying
to slap me and he's...
424
00:16:26,839 --> 00:16:28,506
Oh, my God.
425
00:16:28,508 --> 00:16:30,241
Four women.
426
00:16:30,243 --> 00:16:31,592
And a willow tree.
427
00:16:33,428 --> 00:16:35,012
At least there's no tiger.
428
00:16:36,882 --> 00:16:38,249
Oh, my God.
429
00:16:38,251 --> 00:16:41,252
Is that... half a tiger?
430
00:16:41,254 --> 00:16:42,853
You got here early.
431
00:16:42,855 --> 00:16:45,256
Aah!
432
00:16:46,591 --> 00:16:47,642
It's time.
433
00:16:47,644 --> 00:16:50,427
But you never completed
your training.
434
00:16:50,429 --> 00:16:52,280
Actually...
435
00:16:52,282 --> 00:16:54,431
Listen to me.
I must speak fast.
436
00:16:54,433 --> 00:16:56,450
Once you've had your heart
slapped out of your body,
437
00:16:56,452 --> 00:16:58,819
you've only got ten,
15 minutes to live, max.
438
00:16:58,821 --> 00:17:01,539
Sure.
The trick to accuracy
439
00:17:01,541 --> 00:17:03,941
is to, like,
try to be really accurate.
440
00:17:03,943 --> 00:17:05,493
Okay? Don't just slap.
441
00:17:05,495 --> 00:17:07,444
Like, like, really try to aim.
442
00:17:07,446 --> 00:17:09,947
Look where you're slapping,
that's important.
443
00:17:09,949 --> 00:17:12,133
And then try to slap that spot
444
00:17:12,135 --> 00:17:15,119
instead of some other spot.
445
00:17:15,121 --> 00:17:16,721
Well, I guess
that's pretty much it.
446
00:17:16,723 --> 00:17:17,838
You can slap people now.
447
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,790
(groans)
448
00:17:22,010 --> 00:17:23,594
He's gone.
449
00:17:23,596 --> 00:17:24,795
One other thing.
450
00:17:24,797 --> 00:17:26,480
Cleveland has a lot to offer.
451
00:17:26,482 --> 00:17:29,300
Be sure to check out
the James A. Garfield Monument.
452
00:17:29,302 --> 00:17:31,819
Um, I mean, sure, he was only
president for four months
453
00:17:31,821 --> 00:17:33,271
before he was assassinated,
454
00:17:33,273 --> 00:17:35,606
but if you get up to the top,
you can see almost for 30 miles.
455
00:17:35,608 --> 00:17:37,858
As long as the steel factory's
not smelting.
456
00:17:37,860 --> 00:17:40,661
(groans)
457
00:17:41,697 --> 00:17:42,947
He's gone.
458
00:17:42,949 --> 00:17:46,083
No, like I said,
ten, 15 minutes.
459
00:17:47,636 --> 00:17:49,287
Oh, God, this is awkward.
460
00:17:49,289 --> 00:17:50,788
Yeah, yeah.
461
00:17:50,790 --> 00:17:52,006
It's like when you're saying
good-bye to someone,
462
00:17:52,008 --> 00:17:53,124
and then you realize
you're both heading
463
00:17:53,126 --> 00:17:54,175
in the same direction.
464
00:17:54,177 --> 00:17:55,176
It's like, what
do we, what do we
465
00:17:55,178 --> 00:17:57,161
we say good-bye again or...?
466
00:17:57,163 --> 00:17:59,180
Right...
(groans)
467
00:17:59,182 --> 00:18:01,665
He's gone.
468
00:18:03,435 --> 00:18:06,304
Wait, are you just pretending
so it'll be less awkward?
469
00:18:07,105 --> 00:18:09,190
Should I just, like, go?
470
00:18:09,908 --> 00:18:12,093
Okay.
471
00:18:17,683 --> 00:18:20,568

I love you.
475
00:18:29,412 --> 00:18:30,694
Enough to take this slap for me?
476
00:18:30,696 --> 00:18:32,913
No.
