In "The Pineapple Incident" Ted said he left Trudy a message, and she never called him back. However, in this episode Ted says he wishes he had called her.
The "Belt" is a replica of the WWF Championship belt from the Attitude Era.
Marshall: Okay, new scenario: We're caught in a car crash, you die, I'm left paralyzed. Two sexy nurses come in with a six-pack of wine coolers. I try to blink at them in Morse code. (blinks his eyes) Please... no... I love my dead wife. But they're medical professionals and I have to assume this is good for me. Lily: Fine, sleep with your nurses. Tonight you ride the unicycle. Marshall: Already did this morning.
Ted: What? We agreed! I suited up! Barney: You take too long to get ready. Ted: What are you talking about? I got the low-maintenance, just-rolled-out-of-bed look. Marshall: Which takes about an hour-and-a-half of waxing, tugging, and teasing to achieve. Barney: And then he starts on his hair.
Marshall: If Lily died before me, I could easily go for the belt. Lily: If I died before you, I could easily come back and haunt your penis.
Marshall: (not wearing pants) Wait, I thought we were in for the evening. Barney: That's what I thought about your bangers and mash, but apparently we're both wrong, governor!
Barney: The real Wimbledon lasts a fortnight. Marshall: British words are cool. Also, their lawyers wear wigs. I wore a wig at work once, and they laughed at me.
Trudy: (fantasy) Ted, what's wrong? Ted: I was just thinking about this documentary I saw once. About something called a super volcano. (to Barney) Okay, what the hell? Barney: Wait for it... Ted: (fantasy) It can happen at anytime. And obliterate all life on Earth. Which is why I live by three simple words; don't postpone joy. Rachel: Oh, my God. Trudy: That's so true. Ted: (present) Mortality angle. That's actually pretty good. I can do this.
Rachel: (fantasy) You give the most amazing foot massage. Ted: That's because I used to practice all the time on my grandmother. (to Barney) Why in God's name would I say that? Barney: It's endearing! You're a caregiver. Never take family values out of the equation.
Lily: I cannot give up my bedroom to a boot thief. She should be punished, not rewarded. Ted: Fine, then I'll try to work in a little light spanking.
Ted: It's a tricycle!
Barney: No way, no way, no way!
Marshall: What's happening?
(Barney gives Marshall the phone)
Ted: It's a tricycle!
Marshall: No way, no way, no way! It's a tricycle!
Lily: I'll say it now, all sorority girls are sluts.
Barney: (on women with unshaved legs) Guys just want to get on the green. They don't mind going through the rough.
Ian: Hey, Robin, the valet just pulled my car in. I thought we could go back to my place, if you're in the mood for a nightcap. Robin: Absolutely, I just have to go to the ladies room. I've got TB: tiny bladder.
Barney: Ted, if you're going to go for the Belt, then the bylaws require me to ask the following questions: 1. Is the aggregate age of all participants under 83? Ted: Yes. Barney: 2. Is the aggregate weight of all participants under 400 pounds? Ted: Yes. Barney: Theodore Mosby, are you paying these women? Ted: No! Barney: Ted...
