1
00:00:01,215 --> 00:00:03,586
Kids, the day you get married
is supposed to be
2
00:00:03,686 --> 00:00:04,975
the happiest day of your life,
3
00:00:05,348 --> 00:00:07,877
the perfect ending
to a perfect love story.
4
00:00:08,168 --> 00:00:10,489
My wedding...
at least my first wedding...
5
00:00:10,735 --> 00:00:11,816
didn't go so well.
6
00:00:25,833 --> 00:00:27,903
It's funny looking back on it now.
7
00:00:28,434 --> 00:00:30,795
I was so sure Stella was the one.
8
00:00:31,355 --> 00:00:34,096
And when she left me,
I was so devastated.
9
00:00:34,648 --> 00:00:36,231
But you guys got me through it.
10
00:00:36,677 --> 00:00:38,589
And now the painful part's over.
11
00:00:38,917 --> 00:00:41,674
I've come out the other side
a little bit stronger.
12
00:00:42,413 --> 00:00:45,345
You know, I hardly even
think about her anymore.
13
00:00:45,967 --> 00:00:47,717
That's what time does, I guess.
14
00:00:51,253 --> 00:00:52,869
Ted, the wedding was yesterday.
15
00:00:53,854 --> 00:00:55,405
It's been 24 hours.
16
00:00:55,730 --> 00:00:56,610
I know.
17
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,921
And this is me, moving on.
18
00:00:59,179 --> 00:01:01,619
A great new chapter
of my life began today,
19
00:01:01,748 --> 00:01:03,461
and we're gonna celebrate.
Right now,
20
00:01:03,625 --> 00:01:05,498
we need two things.
We need Kool,
21
00:01:05,838 --> 00:01:07,293
and we need the Gang.
22
00:01:07,575 --> 00:01:09,311
It's jukebox time, huh?
23
00:01:13,756 --> 00:01:15,062
I look at that young man
24
00:01:15,167 --> 00:01:18,264
popping and locking his way over
to the jukebox,
25
00:01:18,628 --> 00:01:20,845
and I think to myself,
you know...
26
00:01:21,654 --> 00:01:23,132
maybe Stella made the right call.
27
00:01:24,740 --> 00:01:25,444
Pain.
28
00:01:25,527 --> 00:01:26,969
How is he dancing right now?
29
00:01:27,063 --> 00:01:28,376
He should be smashing up
30
00:01:28,447 --> 00:01:30,418
Stella's car with a sledgehammer.
31
00:01:31,110 --> 00:01:32,177
Hypothetical.
32
00:01:32,670 --> 00:01:34,605
Ted isn't pretending to be happy.
33
00:01:34,922 --> 00:01:36,177
Ted really is happy.
34
00:01:36,271 --> 00:01:38,218
He never wanted to get married
in the first place.
35
00:01:38,417 --> 00:01:41,010
Ted just pulled off
the greatest train dodge
36
00:01:41,092 --> 00:01:42,628
since Stand by Me.
37
00:01:43,027 --> 00:01:45,584
Well, not the first kid,
but the other kids.
38
00:01:46,613 --> 00:01:49,593
No, he is in bad shape.
39
00:01:50,086 --> 00:01:51,141
What's up?
40
00:01:52,420 --> 00:01:54,262
Really bad shape.
41
00:01:54,637 --> 00:01:56,725
And we need to be there for him.
42
00:01:57,147 --> 00:01:59,707
But as much as my friends
wanted to be there for me,
43
00:01:59,871 --> 00:02:01,773
I was, by all appearances...
44
00:02:01,873 --> 00:02:02,586
fine.
45
00:02:02,686 --> 00:02:04,856
- Hey, buddy.
- Want to hang out?
46
00:02:04,997 --> 00:02:07,601
Guys, I'm fine.
47
00:02:09,109 --> 00:02:10,774
Hey, pal, you want to have a catch?
48
00:02:11,126 --> 00:02:12,276
I'm fine.
49
00:02:16,006 --> 00:02:17,531
Hey, kiddo.
50
00:02:18,651 --> 00:02:21,783
I'm fine.
This is not necessary, and
51
00:02:22,064 --> 00:02:23,312
it's actually kind of weird.
52
00:02:23,417 --> 00:02:24,461
No offense, ladies.
53
00:02:25,082 --> 00:02:27,147
I did not realize you'd be home.
54
00:02:28,296 --> 00:02:29,845
Ladies, to the stairwell.
55
00:02:44,133 --> 00:02:45,399
Finally, after two weeks,
56
00:02:45,482 --> 00:02:47,265
the inevitable emotions boiled over.
57
00:02:47,523 --> 00:02:48,997
Hey, you guys want to get some dinner?
58
00:02:49,091 --> 00:02:49,819
Oh, shut up.
59
00:02:51,144 --> 00:02:53,197
I'm sorry, sweetie.
It's just...
60
00:02:53,432 --> 00:02:55,784
Ted, you've been through
something traumatic,
61
00:02:55,884 --> 00:02:58,182
and we're trying to
be there for you as friends,
62
00:02:58,276 --> 00:02:59,683
but you're not letting us,
63
00:02:59,783 --> 00:03:02,166
and it's pissing us off,
you selfish bitch.
64
00:03:02,694 --> 00:03:03,656
Sorry.
65
00:03:03,914 --> 00:03:06,685
Look, we're just worried that you're not
dealing with this whole Stella thing.
66
00:03:06,785 --> 00:03:08,761
Okay ? Do you remember
when Lily left me?
67
00:03:08,861 --> 00:03:10,767
You remember how
I held in my feelings?
68
00:03:11,453 --> 00:03:12,167
I...
69
00:03:12,556 --> 00:03:13,400
miss...
70
00:03:13,752 --> 00:03:15,676
her so much.
71
00:03:17,682 --> 00:03:19,736
Yeah, dude, you were a rock.
72
00:03:19,864 --> 00:03:21,612
Well, I should have been
even worse, okay?
73
00:03:21,682 --> 00:03:22,773
I should have gotten mad.
74
00:03:22,856 --> 00:03:25,495
I should have taken your advice
and set all of Lily's stuff on fire.
75
00:03:25,624 --> 00:03:27,301
Oh, nice.
Thanks, Ted.
76
00:03:27,794 --> 00:03:29,297
But I didn't,
and I think that that's why
77
00:03:29,379 --> 00:03:31,538
it took me so long to get better.
So, now, Ted...
78
00:03:32,781 --> 00:03:34,259
I want you to explode.
79
00:03:34,634 --> 00:03:35,913
Release the berserker.
80
00:03:36,065 --> 00:03:37,790
Okay, ready?
81
00:03:39,777 --> 00:03:40,495
Now!
82
00:03:41,466 --> 00:03:42,498
- I'm good.
- No.
83
00:03:43,402 --> 00:03:44,809
Guys, get off his back.
84
00:03:44,927 --> 00:03:45,806
He's happy.
85
00:03:45,994 --> 00:03:47,941
Listen, if Ted were married right now,
86
00:03:48,059 --> 00:03:52,105
he'd be married, he'd be living
in New Jersey, and
87
00:03:52,302 --> 00:03:54,073
he'd be married.
88
00:03:54,507 --> 00:03:57,369
He's fine. Now, let's eat.
How about Flat Michael's?
89
00:03:57,475 --> 00:03:59,294
No, that's 44th and Lex.
Can't do it.
90
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,100
Why not?
91
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,934
It's too close to Stella's gym.
Might run into her.
92
00:04:02,039 --> 00:04:03,071
Anywhere else, though.
93
00:04:03,564 --> 00:04:05,183
Okay... how about Hurley's?
94
00:04:06,110 --> 00:04:08,526
Right between Stella's office
and her dry cleaners.
95
00:04:08,643 --> 00:04:09,525
No, sir.
96
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,566
Well, what about meat loaf Charlie's?
97
00:04:11,859 --> 00:04:13,760
Two blocks
from Stella's mother's hairdressers.
98
00:04:13,971 --> 00:04:17,631
Well, geez, Ted, is there anywhere
in Manhattan we can go to dinner?
99
00:04:18,417 --> 00:04:19,531
Of course.
100
00:04:19,660 --> 00:04:21,253
Check this out.
101
00:04:23,036 --> 00:04:24,197
What you got there, Ted?
102
00:04:24,350 --> 00:04:26,203
A little reference map
I made for myself.
103
00:04:26,426 --> 00:04:29,323
A New York guide to places you
might run into Stella Zinman.
104
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,306
Red areas are places to avoid.
105
00:04:31,408 --> 00:04:32,675
White areas are safe.
106
00:04:32,933 --> 00:04:33,754
Blue is water.
107
00:04:34,012 --> 00:04:35,584
That is just ridiculous.
108
00:04:35,643 --> 00:04:37,261
Well, water is blue.
109
00:04:37,566 --> 00:04:39,209
You can't live that way.
110
00:04:39,314 --> 00:04:41,891
She leaves you at the altar,
and you're the one avoiding her?
111
00:04:41,973 --> 00:04:44,434
Yes, I'm avoiding her.
What's the big deal?
112
00:04:44,534 --> 00:04:45,687
That's how we do it.
113
00:04:45,787 --> 00:04:47,035
Who's we, gutless weenies?
114
00:04:47,135 --> 00:04:51,144
No, "we" is people
from the great state of Ohio.
115
00:04:51,507 --> 00:04:52,680
When life gives us pain,
116
00:04:52,774 --> 00:04:55,941
we Buckeyes take that pain
and we push it down.
117
00:04:56,340 --> 00:04:57,806
And if the pain starts
to come up again,
118
00:04:57,912 --> 00:05:00,129
we push more pain down on top of it.
119
00:05:00,364 --> 00:05:02,449
Why confront something
when you can avoid it, right?
120
00:05:02,766 --> 00:05:04,842
All I have to do
is never see Stella again,
121
00:05:04,948 --> 00:05:06,543
and I'll live a long, happy life.
122
00:05:07,622 --> 00:05:08,801
Now, who wants to get something to eat?
123
00:05:08,901 --> 00:05:11,048
Oh, somebody just told me about
a tapas place
124
00:05:11,148 --> 00:05:12,496
that's in the white zone.
125
00:05:12,596 --> 00:05:14,180
Great. Let's go there.
126
00:05:15,893 --> 00:05:16,772
You ready to order?
127
00:05:17,382 --> 00:05:18,188
Not quite yet.
128
00:05:18,329 --> 00:05:20,065
Can we get some of those almonds
for the table?
129
00:05:20,229 --> 00:05:21,062
Certainly.
130
00:05:21,988 --> 00:05:23,103
Nice call, Lily.
131
00:05:23,208 --> 00:05:24,428
This place looks great.
132
00:05:24,651 --> 00:05:25,531
Who told you about it?
133
00:05:25,848 --> 00:05:27,431
You know, I don't remember.
134
00:05:30,495 --> 00:05:31,410
What?
135
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,076
I'd just remember.
136
00:05:42,777 --> 00:05:44,419
Oh, my God.
137
00:05:44,583 --> 00:05:46,272
Okay, just be cool.
138
00:05:46,413 --> 00:05:47,961
We're just gonna have
to deal with this.
139
00:05:48,231 --> 00:05:49,240
Everyone...
140
00:05:49,973 --> 00:05:51,169
follow my lead.
141
00:05:54,090 --> 00:05:55,662
- You're kidding.
- Is he serious?
142
00:05:55,744 --> 00:05:57,738
I am not getting under this table.
143
00:05:58,313 --> 00:06:00,530
I'd maybe get under that table.
144
00:06:01,269 --> 00:06:02,419
She's turning around.
145
00:06:08,413 --> 00:06:09,539
Think.
146
00:06:10,384 --> 00:06:12,175
Everyone, just stay here.
I'm gonna go take a look.
147
00:06:13,313 --> 00:06:14,427
Marshall, go take a look.
148
00:06:21,229 --> 00:06:22,672
And will you need utensils?
149
00:06:22,954 --> 00:06:24,303
No, I'm just going straight home.
150
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,854
She's placing an order to go.
151
00:06:28,936 --> 00:06:29,675
Did she seem happy?
152
00:06:29,746 --> 00:06:30,872
Did she say anything about me?
153
00:06:31,602 --> 00:06:32,553
I don't even care.
154
00:06:32,811 --> 00:06:33,913
Where are those almonds?
155
00:06:34,054 --> 00:06:35,485
Gosh, where would Ted's nuts be?
156
00:06:35,696 --> 00:06:38,476
Hey, why don't you check
the vise in Stella's garage?
157
00:06:39,063 --> 00:06:40,119
Go yell at her.
158
00:06:40,201 --> 00:06:41,655
Ted, you may be from Ohio,
159
00:06:41,714 --> 00:06:43,271
but you live in New York now.
160
00:06:43,412 --> 00:06:45,512
We don't push down
our feelings in New York.
161
00:06:45,570 --> 00:06:48,526
We take our feelings and we shove them
in somebody else's face!
162
00:06:48,644 --> 00:06:49,958
Oh, spare me, Lily.
163
00:06:50,063 --> 00:06:52,128
You'd be doing the same thing
if you were in this situation.
164
00:06:52,221 --> 00:06:53,265
That's outrageous.
165
00:06:53,359 --> 00:06:55,300
There is not a person on Earth
166
00:06:55,394 --> 00:06:57,271
I would hide under a table from.
167
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,382
Really, not a single person?
168
00:06:59,488 --> 00:07:00,356
Not even...
169
00:07:01,036 --> 00:07:02,045
Gasser?
170
00:07:02,233 --> 00:07:04,906
How dare you mention that name to me.
171
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,126
Who's Gasser?
172
00:07:06,325 --> 00:07:09,657
He's the last person I'd want to see
walk through that door.
173
00:07:09,903 --> 00:07:11,287
Michael Sasser.
174
00:07:11,545 --> 00:07:13,434
He's a guy I went to high school with.
175
00:07:13,727 --> 00:07:16,199
Michael sat next to me
in freshman biology.
176
00:07:16,457 --> 00:07:19,131
He had been a bit of a loser
all through middle school,
177
00:07:19,248 --> 00:07:20,797
but the summer before ninth grade,
178
00:07:20,914 --> 00:07:23,553
he grew 12 inches
and joined the baseball team.
179
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,957
He was right on the precipice
of becoming one of the cool kids.
180
00:07:27,309 --> 00:07:28,411
Until one day...
181
00:07:32,282 --> 00:07:33,639
We've all been there.
182
00:07:33,733 --> 00:07:35,375
When you've ripped one,
it's not pretty.
183
00:07:35,704 --> 00:07:36,877
What did you do?
184
00:07:37,006 --> 00:07:38,061
Are you kidding?
185
00:07:38,179 --> 00:07:39,821
This was ninth grade.
186
00:07:40,255 --> 00:07:41,897
I only had one choice.
187
00:07:42,484 --> 00:07:46,423
Oh, my God, Sasser.
Fart much?
188
00:07:46,927 --> 00:07:49,074
No, it wasn't me. It was her.
189
00:07:49,191 --> 00:07:50,939
As if, Sasser.
190
00:07:51,033 --> 00:07:52,628
More like Gasser.
191
00:07:53,188 --> 00:07:57,035
Gasser!
192
00:07:57,469 --> 00:08:00,214
I'm on the baseball team.
I'm cool.
193
00:08:02,126 --> 00:08:04,081
The nickname Gasser stuck.
194
00:08:04,363 --> 00:08:07,647
He got teased so much, eventually
he had to change schools.
195
00:08:07,905 --> 00:08:09,196
Kids are awesome.
196
00:08:09,372 --> 00:08:11,507
I've always felt awful about that.
197
00:08:11,765 --> 00:08:12,850
But if Gasser...
198
00:08:12,979 --> 00:08:13,871
Michael...
199
00:08:14,270 --> 00:08:15,783
walked in right now,
200
00:08:16,170 --> 00:08:18,258
as hard as it would be,
I would go up to Gasser...
201
00:08:18,328 --> 00:08:19,372
Michael...
202
00:08:19,724 --> 00:08:21,413
and I would resolve things between us.
203
00:08:21,507 --> 00:08:23,372
Right, clear the air, as it were.
204
00:08:23,803 --> 00:08:25,223
Oh, man.
205
00:08:25,633 --> 00:08:27,357
Those don't come around often.
206
00:08:27,838 --> 00:08:29,269
Y'all are welcome.
207
00:08:31,709 --> 00:08:33,117
- Hey, are you guys okay?
- Oh, yeah.
208
00:08:33,234 --> 00:08:35,234
We're just gonna be eating down here
if that's okay.
209
00:08:35,433 --> 00:08:36,442
Well, here's your almonds.
210
00:08:36,712 --> 00:08:38,506
Thanks...
you guys have any specials today?
211
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,524
Ted, this is ludicrous.
212
00:08:40,735 --> 00:08:42,682
Ted, I am a person who...
213
00:08:42,870 --> 00:08:43,965
Well, let's just face it.
214
00:08:44,058 --> 00:08:46,170
There are a lot of people
I don't want to see...
215
00:08:46,346 --> 00:08:48,956
people of the
"chicks I banged" persuasion...
216
00:08:49,056 --> 00:08:51,472
but if any of them were to walk in here,
I would stand up,
217
00:08:51,578 --> 00:08:53,583
and I would look them right in the eye.
218
00:08:54,006 --> 00:08:55,590
Some of them for the very first time.
219
00:08:56,751 --> 00:08:58,886
Really, you wouldn't hide from anyone?
220
00:08:59,777 --> 00:09:01,490
Not even, say...
221
00:09:01,701 --> 00:09:02,956
Becca Delucci?
222
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,587
You son of a bitch.
223
00:09:05,079 --> 00:09:06,314
Who's Becca Delucci?
224
00:09:06,678 --> 00:09:07,675
Do you mind?
225
00:09:11,933 --> 00:09:13,235
So, who is Becca Delucci?
226
00:09:13,388 --> 00:09:14,185
Becca is just this
227
00:09:14,303 --> 00:09:16,820
girl who lives upstate.
I used to visit her now and again.
228
00:09:17,594 --> 00:09:20,069
Where exactly upstate, Barney?
229
00:09:21,148 --> 00:09:23,377
Bedford Hills Federal Penitentiary.
230
00:09:23,647 --> 00:09:27,655
And yes, the visits were
of a conjugal nature.
231
00:09:29,086 --> 00:09:31,421
- No way, really?
- Really.
232
00:09:31,737 --> 00:09:35,069
And what I had with Becca
was a perfect relationship.
233
00:09:35,210 --> 00:09:38,694
She was only allowed, by law,
to call me once a week.
234
00:09:38,957 --> 00:09:41,921
If she ever got clingy,
the armed guards stopped her.
235
00:09:42,390 --> 00:09:43,939
And I never had to pay for dinner.
236
00:09:44,138 --> 00:09:45,030
Well, that's not true.
237
00:09:45,241 --> 00:09:46,214
I pay taxes.
238
00:09:46,402 --> 00:09:47,563
Then again, I guess
we all paid for dinner.
239
00:09:47,645 --> 00:09:48,555
Thanks a lot, guys.
240
00:09:48,865 --> 00:09:51,118
Anyway, the last time I visited,
241
00:09:51,452 --> 00:09:53,059
I kind of screwed things up.
242
00:09:53,247 --> 00:09:55,018
I know it's hard, baby,
243
00:09:55,382 --> 00:09:57,599
but I'm in a prison, too.
244
00:09:57,927 --> 00:09:59,892
A prison of my own heart.
245
00:10:00,797 --> 00:10:04,105
Is that room ready yet or what?
Can we...? Tick-tock.
246
00:10:05,349 --> 00:10:07,859
Barney, you're the only thing
that's keeping me going here.
247
00:10:08,035 --> 00:10:09,424
That's what I'm here for, baby.
248
00:10:09,576 --> 00:10:10,609
I'm your rock.
249
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:13,834
I'm... oh, my God.
Hello, strange.
250
00:10:19,086 --> 00:10:21,116
Barney Stinson, attorney at law.
251
00:10:21,292 --> 00:10:24,107
- Let's talk about getting you off.
- Oh, hell, no!
252
00:10:36,303 --> 00:10:38,731
Now I get letters from Becca
and she's all,
253
00:10:38,836 --> 00:10:41,209
"I'm coming to get you the day
I get out of here.
254
00:10:41,308 --> 00:10:44,357
I'm gonna hang your eyes
from my rearview mirror."
255
00:10:45,378 --> 00:10:46,411
Women, huh?
256
00:10:47,630 --> 00:10:48,522
See?
257
00:10:48,615 --> 00:10:50,819
You're scared of Becca.
Lily's scared of Gasser.
258
00:10:50,972 --> 00:10:52,274
We're staying under the table.
259
00:10:55,816 --> 00:10:56,767
We don't have to.
260
00:10:56,896 --> 00:10:59,640
- Stella's gone.
- Oh, my gosh.
261
00:11:01,981 --> 00:11:06,674
There, all done,
and that's how we do it Ohio style.
262
00:11:06,826 --> 00:11:09,196
Problem showed up. We avoided it.
It went away.
263
00:11:09,313 --> 00:11:10,358
Now we can enjoy our meal
264
00:11:10,452 --> 00:11:12,012
- in peace and...
- She's back.
265
00:11:16,740 --> 00:11:19,133
Ted, we all think that you need...
266
00:11:19,496 --> 00:11:20,653
Wait, where's Barney?
267
00:11:27,116 --> 00:11:29,415
We all think that you need
to go talk to her.
268
00:11:29,486 --> 00:11:30,495
- I don't.
- What?
269
00:11:30,612 --> 00:11:32,154
Yeah, if the last person I wanted to see
270
00:11:32,219 --> 00:11:33,967
walked through the door,
I wouldn't say a damn word.
271
00:11:34,096 --> 00:11:35,610
- Really?
- And who's that?
272
00:11:35,797 --> 00:11:36,583
My father.
273
00:11:37,756 --> 00:11:40,107
You guys, that other table
is off the hook.
274
00:11:40,787 --> 00:11:42,570
- What are we talking about?
- Robin's dad.
275
00:11:42,652 --> 00:11:44,013
I haven't spoken to him in three years
276
00:11:44,071 --> 00:11:45,503
and I don't intend to start now.
277
00:11:45,632 --> 00:11:46,523
Why?
278
00:11:46,957 --> 00:11:48,998
It goes back to the day I was born.
279
00:11:49,092 --> 00:11:51,072
You give me my son now. Push.
280
00:11:57,769 --> 00:11:58,672
He wanted a son
281
00:11:58,836 --> 00:12:00,995
and the fact that I was a girl
didn't change his plan.
282
00:12:01,170 --> 00:12:02,097
What do you mean?
283
00:12:03,024 --> 00:12:06,836
My full legal name is
Robin Charles Scherbatsky, Jr.
284
00:12:08,067 --> 00:12:09,569
And it only gets worse from there.
285
00:12:10,132 --> 00:12:13,228
When I was eight, he took me
hunting for the first time.
286
00:12:13,357 --> 00:12:15,094
I don't want to shoot a deer.
287
00:12:15,223 --> 00:12:16,243
Nonsense, R.J.
288
00:12:16,618 --> 00:12:18,905
Shooting deer
is the noblest of pursuits.
289
00:12:19,093 --> 00:12:20,840
But they're cute.
290
00:12:20,993 --> 00:12:22,952
You said the same thing
about our rabbits.
291
00:12:23,315 --> 00:12:24,876
Remember how delicious they were?
292
00:12:26,553 --> 00:12:28,344
Over the years, as my body developed...
293
00:12:28,602 --> 00:12:29,623
Hold on a sec.
294
00:12:31,042 --> 00:12:32,309
Sorry, go on.
295
00:12:33,259 --> 00:12:36,837
It became harder and harder for him
to pretend I was a boy.
296
00:12:36,983 --> 00:12:39,142
The lowest moment came
when I turned 14.
297
00:12:39,271 --> 00:12:42,015
My peewee hockey team had just
won the Squamish Invitational
298
00:12:42,086 --> 00:12:44,024
and everyone came back
to my house to celebrate.
299
00:12:44,159 --> 00:12:47,795
You lads availed yourself
splendidly out there on the ice.
300
00:12:47,877 --> 00:12:49,297
Splendidly.
301
00:12:49,860 --> 00:12:50,830
You go on outside.
302
00:12:50,900 --> 00:12:53,610
I'll come back with an assortment
of soft drinks
303
00:12:53,892 --> 00:12:55,159
and American pretzels.
304
00:12:58,791 --> 00:13:00,879
I can't believe you missed that
last empty-netter, you hoser.
305
00:13:00,973 --> 00:13:03,777
- You're the hoser.
- No, you're the hoser.
306
00:13:11,391 --> 00:13:12,599
What are you doing?
307
00:13:13,631 --> 00:13:16,482
You're teammates,
hockey players.
308
00:13:17,455 --> 00:13:19,379
Teammates don't kiss!
309
00:13:19,966 --> 00:13:22,479
Hockey players don't kiss!
310
00:13:24,544 --> 00:13:25,717
Oh, my God.
311
00:13:27,042 --> 00:13:28,039
I have no son.
312
00:13:32,249 --> 00:13:33,727
You poor thing.
313
00:13:34,443 --> 00:13:36,554
To have to grow up in Canada
314
00:13:36,695 --> 00:13:38,372
with America right there.
315
00:13:39,052 --> 00:13:41,727
That sucks about your dad, Robin,
316
00:13:42,034 --> 00:13:44,204
but congratulations on that game.
317
00:13:45,635 --> 00:13:48,017
And Kyle and I weren't even doing
anything serious.
318
00:13:48,110 --> 00:13:49,635
We only went to the blue line.
319
00:13:49,847 --> 00:13:51,137
- blue line?
- Yeah.
320
00:13:51,254 --> 00:13:52,083
you know how when you're a kid,
321
00:13:52,154 --> 00:13:53,690
you put everything into hockey terms?
322
00:13:53,784 --> 00:13:55,989
The blue line is kissing,
the red line is getting naked,
323
00:13:56,060 --> 00:13:58,476
and I think "in the crease" speaks
for itself.
324
00:13:59,409 --> 00:14:00,547
Anyway, after that,
325
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,069
my relationship with my dad
pretty much went north.
326
00:14:03,162 --> 00:14:04,356
I moved in with my mom,
327
00:14:04,438 --> 00:14:05,471
grew my hair out,
328
00:14:05,611 --> 00:14:08,298
became a Canadian pop star.
You know, normal teen stuff.
329
00:14:09,201 --> 00:14:12,344
Don't you think it would feel better
to talk to him about all this?
330
00:14:12,450 --> 00:14:15,469
No, that's the point.
It wouldn't solve anything.
331
00:14:15,516 --> 00:14:17,439
It's in the past. It's done.
332
00:14:18,366 --> 00:14:19,621
I mean, what would I even say to him?
333
00:14:19,715 --> 00:14:21,604
"I wish you hadn't raised me as a boy"?
334
00:14:21,721 --> 00:14:24,036
"I wish you hadn't taught me
how to hunt
335
00:14:24,177 --> 00:14:26,511
and fish and smoke cigars
and drink Scotch
336
00:14:26,593 --> 00:14:28,095
because that's not what girls do.
337
00:14:28,552 --> 00:14:30,371
And you know the reason
I throw like a girl, Dad,
338
00:14:30,453 --> 00:14:32,118
is because I am a girl."
339
00:14:35,833 --> 00:14:37,757
You held onto that for a long time?
340
00:14:40,372 --> 00:14:41,733
It really messed you up.
341
00:14:44,296 --> 00:14:45,296
- That sucks.
- I'm sorry.
342
00:14:45,396 --> 00:14:46,396
It's hot.
343
00:14:48,178 --> 00:14:49,598
And then I realized...
344
00:14:52,272 --> 00:14:54,149
all of my friends were haunted,
345
00:14:54,708 --> 00:14:57,265
but there was a difference
between my ghost and theirs.
346
00:14:58,309 --> 00:15:00,116
It wasn't too late for me.
347
00:15:01,277 --> 00:15:02,509
I'm gonna go talk to her.
348
00:15:08,806 --> 00:15:09,838
She's gone.
349
00:15:10,190 --> 00:15:12,665
- I'm going after her.
- Go, go, go.
350
00:15:14,847 --> 00:15:16,120
There she goes!
351
00:15:23,381 --> 00:15:24,964
Okay, I see her.
She's two cabs ahead on the right.
352
00:15:25,034 --> 00:15:26,231
Just stay with her, okay?
353
00:15:26,372 --> 00:15:27,153
Finally.
354
00:15:27,252 --> 00:15:28,531
Finally, you're doing this.
355
00:15:28,613 --> 00:15:29,622
You're going to confront her.
356
00:15:29,716 --> 00:15:31,675
- Yes, I am going to confront her.
- Yeah.
357
00:15:31,862 --> 00:15:33,293
- This is so exciting.
- Totally.
358
00:15:33,375 --> 00:15:34,384
What are you going to say?
359
00:15:34,501 --> 00:15:36,589
I'm gonna say, "Stella,
360
00:15:37,635 --> 00:15:39,101
I'm sorry things didn't work out."
361
00:15:41,189 --> 00:15:42,738
We're going to talk
about this like adults.
362
00:15:42,902 --> 00:15:44,826
She can tell me her side and...
363
00:15:45,201 --> 00:15:46,667
I'm going to listen.
364
00:15:46,855 --> 00:15:48,656
Probably should have done
a little more of that before.
365
00:15:48,832 --> 00:15:50,510
Driver, can you run us
into the nearest lamppost?
366
00:15:50,592 --> 00:15:52,163
Everyone, buckle up.
Not you, Ted.
367
00:15:53,161 --> 00:15:55,284
Ted, you got to get mad right now.
368
00:15:55,401 --> 00:15:56,351
Come on.
369
00:15:56,515 --> 00:15:57,237
Dig deep.
370
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,430
Dude, come on.
This isn't about me waving my arms,
371
00:15:59,515 --> 00:16:01,204
stamping my feet,
and getting really mad.
372
00:16:01,298 --> 00:16:04,090
This is about Stella and I
finally communicating.
373
00:16:04,230 --> 00:16:06,811
- I mean, clearly, that was...
- Stella hated Star Wars.
374
00:16:07,104 --> 00:16:08,320
She lied to you.
375
00:16:08,449 --> 00:16:11,346
Search your feelings, Ted.
You know it to be true.
376
00:16:12,484 --> 00:16:13,516
Well, that's her business.
377
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,718
Come on, Ted.
She left you at the altar.
378
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:17,934
I don't understand!
379
00:16:18,228 --> 00:16:19,928
Ted, in the name of all
that is sacred...
380
00:16:20,011 --> 00:16:21,113
Wait!
381
00:16:21,313 --> 00:16:22,093
Where is she going?
382
00:16:22,187 --> 00:16:24,128
Her cab just missed the turn
for the Lincoln Tunnel.
383
00:16:24,198 --> 00:16:25,747
Why would anybody buy take out food
384
00:16:25,829 --> 00:16:27,934
and bring it all the way back
to New Jersey anyway?
385
00:16:28,074 --> 00:16:29,599
Maybe she's going to her office.
386
00:16:31,324 --> 00:16:32,368
The waiter asked her,
387
00:16:32,555 --> 00:16:33,553
"Will you need utensils?"
388
00:16:33,670 --> 00:16:35,699
and then she said, "No,
I'm just going straight home."
389
00:16:36,133 --> 00:16:38,245
But if she's going home,
why are we still heading...
390
00:16:39,352 --> 00:16:40,325
Oh, my God.
391
00:16:41,709 --> 00:16:43,035
Tony lives downtown.
392
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:44,572
"Home"
393
00:16:45,029 --> 00:16:46,531
is Tony's apartment.
394
00:16:46,636 --> 00:16:47,786
She was going to make me
395
00:16:47,868 --> 00:16:49,197
move to New Jersey
396
00:16:49,314 --> 00:16:52,810
and then she moves into the city
with Tony?!
397
00:16:53,385 --> 00:16:54,687
Son of a bitch!
398
00:16:57,033 --> 00:17:00,338
- I am so angry right now!
- I know, and I love it!
399
00:17:02,086 --> 00:17:03,752
Yeah, that is awesome!
400
00:17:03,893 --> 00:17:07,259
Sir, we'd be happy to cover
the cost of that window crank.
401
00:17:07,455 --> 00:17:08,933
I love angry Ted!
402
00:17:09,063 --> 00:17:10,200
So do I!
403
00:17:11,854 --> 00:17:14,036
Get it out, baby.
Let it out.
404
00:17:14,142 --> 00:17:15,173
She's stopping.
405
00:17:15,783 --> 00:17:18,352
- It is on. It is on!
- Yes, Ted.
406
00:17:18,434 --> 00:17:20,909
- Go get her, buddy!
- Go get rid of your demons!
407
00:17:21,038 --> 00:17:22,915
- My leg is asleep!
- Okay, wa-wa-wait.
408
00:17:22,997 --> 00:17:24,229
- Wait, hold on.
- Lily, what are you doing?
409
00:17:24,999 --> 00:17:26,770
All right, hold on.
410
00:17:27,087 --> 00:17:28,495
Look, Ted,
411
00:17:28,718 --> 00:17:29,633
it's great
412
00:17:29,738 --> 00:17:31,216
- that you're angry right now.
- It sure is.
413
00:17:32,471 --> 00:17:35,012
And that you're finally dealing
with this, but
414
00:17:35,223 --> 00:17:36,889
you only get one shot here.
415
00:17:37,076 --> 00:17:38,273
Let's just take a beat and,
416
00:17:38,373 --> 00:17:40,402
and think about
what you're going to say.
417
00:17:41,698 --> 00:17:43,341
Oh, I know exactly what I'm gonna say.
418
00:17:54,462 --> 00:17:55,857
You picked the wrong guy.
419
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,453
You picked the wrong guy.
420
00:18:03,072 --> 00:18:04,489
You made a really,
421
00:18:04,923 --> 00:18:06,155
really,
422
00:18:06,624 --> 00:18:08,079
really bad choice.
423
00:18:09,721 --> 00:18:10,824
What were you thinking?
424
00:18:11,176 --> 00:18:12,196
That guy?
425
00:18:12,548 --> 00:18:14,108
Are you kidding me?
426
00:18:14,703 --> 00:18:17,014
Have you learned nothing
in the last eight years?
427
00:18:17,941 --> 00:18:19,067
You're just gonna regret this.
428
00:18:19,243 --> 00:18:20,029
You know that, right?
429
00:18:20,123 --> 00:18:21,812
You are going to regret this,
430
00:18:21,906 --> 00:18:23,559
and now there is nothing
you can do about it
431
00:18:23,689 --> 00:18:25,096
because it's too late.
432
00:18:26,343 --> 00:18:27,657
All you can do now is go up there
433
00:18:27,751 --> 00:18:29,651
and start your crappy,
434
00:18:29,886 --> 00:18:31,070
disappointing life
435
00:18:31,950 --> 00:18:33,393
that will never be nearly as happy
436
00:18:33,522 --> 00:18:35,493
as the one you could have had with me.
437
00:18:37,638 --> 00:18:38,366
Good-bye.
438
00:18:39,175 --> 00:18:40,512
- Ted, wait.
- Look, Stella,
439
00:18:40,594 --> 00:18:42,765
I am not here to win you back.
440
00:18:43,445 --> 00:18:44,489
I am here because
441
00:18:44,571 --> 00:18:45,697
I need to know
442
00:18:45,826 --> 00:18:46,882
that you know
443
00:18:47,935 --> 00:18:49,601
you made the biggest mistake
of your life.
444
00:18:51,114 --> 00:18:51,982
I know.
445
00:18:55,606 --> 00:18:56,381
Good.
446
00:18:59,638 --> 00:19:00,963
That's what I'm gonna say.
447
00:19:01,761 --> 00:19:03,579
- Dag!
- Cold-blooded.
448
00:19:03,661 --> 00:19:05,785
Yeah, that's good.
Go say that.
449
00:19:08,714 --> 00:19:09,441
Thanks.
450
00:19:10,309 --> 00:19:13,078
So I got out of the cab,
ready to say all of that stuff,
451
00:19:13,265 --> 00:19:14,509
ready to explode,
452
00:19:14,943 --> 00:19:15,682
but then...
453
00:19:15,711 --> 00:19:18,204
- Mommy!
- Hey.
454
00:19:21,944 --> 00:19:23,727
It all just went away.
455
00:19:28,513 --> 00:19:29,616
And that was it.
456
00:19:29,956 --> 00:19:32,217
In that moment, I wasn't angry anymore.
457
00:19:33,132 --> 00:19:35,572
I could see Stella was meant
to be with Tony.
458
00:19:36,757 --> 00:19:38,293
Kids, you may think
your only choices
459
00:19:38,352 --> 00:19:39,537
are to swallow your anger
460
00:19:39,642 --> 00:19:41,462
or throw it in someone's face.
461
00:19:41,837 --> 00:19:43,163
There's a third option:
462
00:19:43,409 --> 00:19:44,922
you can just let it go,
463
00:19:45,509 --> 00:19:47,397
and only when you do that
is it really gone,
464
00:19:47,491 --> 00:19:48,770
and you can move forward.
465
00:19:49,415 --> 00:19:50,459
And that, kids,
466
00:19:50,599 --> 00:19:53,489
was the perfect ending
to a perfect love story.
467
00:19:53,810 --> 00:19:55,194
It just wasn't mine.
468
00:19:56,167 --> 00:19:57,563
Mine was still out there
469
00:19:57,763 --> 00:19:58,833
waiting for me.
