HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER 2009: Clues You May Have Missed

October 14th, 2008

With an opening scene so brilliant you’d think Barney belonged on THE BIG BANG THEORY [would he not make the perfect new friend for Sheldon, Leonard, Wolowitz and Raj?], a string of hilarious interventions [Marshall’s hat would make Joey proud!] and an ending so littered with clues that it almost gives LOST a run for its money, last night’s HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER was a return to form for the series and dare we say it, “Legen…… wait for it…… dary!”

Like “First Time in New York” before it [the episode where each member of the gang recounts their ‘first time’] “Intervention” allowed for every character to have their moment to shine [particularly Robin in all of her Canadian inebriated glory]. That is, until the gang reached the inevitable conclusion that moving on and growing up is indeed a fact of life.

Of course, what still has this TV Addict smiling is that “one year later” final scene. Which is why we compiled our favorite four clues in case you missed them.

Tim G. Says:

What is this, LOST?

Seriously, nice eye.

Lindlee Says:

All good points, but that is Robin’s right hand correct? I don’t think that’s a wedding ring. Yet how ironic would that be if she got married before Ted?

Josh C. Says:

i’d like to believe that robin marries barney but in the same shot you can’t see a wedding ring on his finger. I have to agree though that last nights episode was absolutely hilarious and had me laughing the whole time. Though, I don’t know if i want the gang to grow up. makes me sad. good news is that marshall and lily obviously move back!!

Heather Says:

Yeah, that’s Robin’s left hand, not her right.

What I want to know is, who is living in the apartment in 2009!??!

Dave Says:

I don’t think Marshall & Lily move back - I think Robyn moves in. Remember the goat episode when they said Robyn was living in the apartment?

Sarah Says:

No - that’s Robin’s RIGHT hand. So it wouldn’t be a wedding ring.

Holli Says:

That’s Robyn’s right hand.

theTVaddict Says:

hehehehe… not being an expert on wedding rings, I had a feeling some far more knowledgeable women would correct me!

Nick.C. Says:

Man,i hope Ted does not marry Stella!I hope your right Tv Addict.She (Stella)is such a drag to the show.This episode without her was great…

Nick.C. Says:

One more thing….

I hope one of these days Cobie Smulders gets the recognition she deserves.She is one of the funniest people on TV,not to mention the best looking!

charlane Says:

I think their statement “move the party upstairs” pretty much says it all. we know that Lily and Marshall do live in their place because he’s talked about it before to the kids and we know that Robin is a world traveler because he talked about that too….so, it leaves by process of elimination, Ted in the apartment.

Josh Emerson Says:

The best, funniest scene last night was Robin getting really Canadian when drunk. That’s already gotta be a shoe-in for Fav Quotes of the Week!

That’s a good point, about the goat. It sounds like Robin somehow ends up living in that apartment. Maybe with Ted, as friends? She’ll need a place to stay when she comes back from Japan, and he’ll probably end up not marrying Stella. Which is good. I liked her at first, but I think that was mainly because it was Sarah Chalke. I’ve found the character boring.

kb Says:

umm, yeah, the ring is definitely on her right hand. wedding bands are worn on the left hand, just in case you forgot. the other clues are good, though. it’s good to know i wasn’t the only one looking for this stuff.

NC Says:

OMG! Please let Robin and Barney be married!

Judi Says:

In some European countries, the wedding ring is worn on the right hand. Maybe she met someone on her world travels?

Julie Says:

Some traditions include a surviving spouse continuing to wear a wedding ring reflecting their marriage after their partner’s death - but on the other hand from where they wore it during his/her life.

Shageen Says:

Well I have to say I’ve never thought he married Stella. When he’s explaining “How I met your Mother” it’s only to 2 kids.. both teenagers. Stella currently has a 7 year old daughter wouldn’t he be telling the story to her as well? (of course unless she’s move out of the house and is old enough to already know etc..) Just seems odd you’d have a big life conversation and not have the step Sister.

Flannery Says:

I remember reading an interview with the cast, and when asked about the Ted/Stella wedding, one of them said “There will be a wedding.” Maybe “a” wedding referred to someone other than Ted?

Kate Says:

I’m still hoping Ted gets back together with the bakery girl! Nice job with the clues!

Kate Says:

Also I seriously want a cookie jar named R2 Sweet Tooth!

Jess Says:

I think that pregnancy clue is spot on, but even though that’s Robin’s right hand the most telling clue is that you can’t see Barney’s left hand at all. It’s purposely hidden.

Rachel Says:

Lily is totally preggers!!! I’m so glad you guys caught that too, she totally just sniffed her drink! I also hope Ted ends up with Victoria (the cupcake lady from S1).

BobBarker Says:

Yeah, I also hope Ted marries the bakkery girl! She was awesome!

Bridget Says:

I think that Ted decides not to marry Stella and Robin moves to Japan and comes back to visit her friends. That leaves Marshall and Lily who live in the apartment and have sold their condo finally!

Mattmanwv Says:

I think Barney and Ted should get married

Rach Says:

I think while it’s possible Lily is pregnant, you can’t read into it that she definitely is. I think the writers are just covering their bases in case they do decide to go that route - they wouldn’t want eagle eyed fans complaining that Lily was drinking in the flash forward. She didn’t drink in the flash forward in Single Stamina, either.

[…] in the last How I Met Your Mother. If you haven’t seen the episode, don’t click on this link yet. Nothing really spoilerish here (if you saw the ep, you saw these pictures), but interesting […]

Victoria Says:

I noticed a ring on that same finger of Robin earlier in the episode as well. Not sure if it is the same ring, but she is definitely wearing one on the right hand (same as picture above, and not the wedding ring hand as many have pointed out) when they are in the apartment packing/unpacking.

kay Says:

i think lilly will get pregnant but she’s probably pregnant to alexis denisof (wesley from angel) and her pregnancy will have to be written into the show. lol

i really hope that barney and robin finally get together i am such a huge shipper its not funny. hope he declares his love 4 her soon and they should get married 2 .and i loved how in that episode ted’s like “get out of our booth” to those people sitting in their spot lol ted’s awesome!

[…] pistas son cuatro y están en este enlace a TV Addict. Lo único que me preocupa es que igual la semana que viene no nos cuentan que pasó en el 2009, […]

Michelle Says:

Robin isn’t married! Even before the scene from the year later, Robin is still wearing that gold band on her RIGHT hand.

Dan Says:

I think that robin will end up going to Japan, barney and robin will maybe date. nothing to extravagant. Somthing happens to the condo. you know how they just like to make up that stuff last moment. Ted and stella will break up, but she will break up with him. Ted hasen’t got his heart broken yet. before you even meet ted on the pilot show, what was his life before that? nothing serious? he has always been the dumper ,now he’s going to fall in love and for some reason, get dumped and heart broken
