Recurring Role |
Lily mentions that Barney has a life sized Storm Trooper in his house. However, it is a life sized Clone Trooper. Whilst it is possible that Lily would not be able to tell one from the other, Barney would almost certainly know the difference, yet he does not correct her.
(Barney walks into his apartment)
Barney: Oh, and P to the S, I never got my payout from Seattle two weeks ago, yeah. Don't make me call the gaming commissions on you , I'm sure they'd be very interested to know what's going on over there, alright, alright? Ok I love you too mom, take care.
Ted: Okay, we HAVE to get Lily out of that apartment. Her roommate is a raccoon.
Robin: I'd offer her my place, but I have dogs and she's allergic.
Ted: Dogs? I live with her ex-boyfriend. I think she's more allergic to that.
Robin: What about your place, Barney? I know it's surrounded in mystery, but it's gotta have a couch.
Barney: The Fortress of Barnitude?? No way.
Robin: Oh come on. She's desperate.
Barney: Mmm, normally a prerequisite for the women I bring home, but pass.
(About going to brunch with Brad)
Marshall: We're here, we're hungry, get used to it, Brunch!
Barney: Look around Lily, you are in the heart of bachelor country. And as a woman, you are an illegal immigrant here. Now you can try to apply for a sex visa, but that only lasts twelve hours. Fourteen if you qualify for multiple entry.
(Barney turns on another massive flat-screen T.V)
Lily: Okay, seriously, what do you do for a living?
Barney: Mmhehe. Please.
Barney:You spooned me against my will.
Ted: Is that a toilet in your kitchen?
Robin: Or a stove in your bathroom?
Lily: Oh, that's not just a stove, that's a stove-ink-erator. A combination of a stove, oven, sink, and refrigerator. Stove-ink-erator. Isn't that futuristic?
Ted: God, I hope not.
Barney: That's why I make it crystal clear to every girl that walks through that door that this is no place to leave a toothbrush, this is not a place to leave a contact lens case..this is a place to leave. Come on, I'll give you a tour..and no flash photography. The bedroom, king-size bed, full-size blanket, one pillow, everything about this bed says: Our work here is done. The bathroom, only one towel. What? No hairdryer? You know where I keep that stuff? Your place, beat it! Velkommen to the hallway. While guys like Ted and Marshall hide their porn,...
Lily: Marshall doesn't have porn.
Barney: Oh, that's sweet. While guys like Ted and Marshall hide their porn, I had mine professionally lit. Girls see this, they can't get out of here fast enough.
Lily: If that doesn't drive them enough, there's always your life-size Storm Trooper.
Barney: No, that's just awesome. So you see, when a girl wakes up here, I never have to tell her to go build her nest somewhere else; my apartment does it for me.
When watching the 300-inch TV
Lily: It hurts my eyes.
Barney: Yeah, that doesn't go away.
Barney: What was the first rule again?
Lily: Don't change anything?
Barney: And what was the second rule?
Lily: There was no second rule.
Barney: Exactly, there was only one rule and you broke it!
Barney: We redecorated my place. We stayed in on a Friday night to watch Letterman, and then slept together and didn't have sex! Ohmygod, we're in a relationship!
Barney:You somehow managed to circumvent my security, how did you do it?
Lily: Ted gave me you spare key.
Barney: Spare key, brilliant!
Marshall: Even if you don't believe it, tell me he looks fat.
(Ted turns around and takes a peek at Brad)
Ted: Totally looks fat.
Barney: You are better than porn!
Lily: Thanks!
Lily: You have a room for your suits.
Barney: I'm at the point in my life where my suits are my family.
