Robin

Very funny episode!

Ted is still sharing an apartment with Robin and when he comes home one night there’s a naked guy sitting on his couch. This is Mitch, Robin’s blind date. Robin is outside taking a phone call and this guy’s just sitting there. Turns out that that’s his move: “The naked man”. He simply takes his clothes off and two out of three times he gets lucky. Ted doesn’t believe him until Robin falls for it. The gang all decide to try out “The Naked Man”.

Very funny episode. I liked how Ted picked up Vicky in the elevator, that poor girl put on less and less clothes just so Ted’d talk to her. Who goes to work (un)dressed like that? Great outfits though. And I really liked Robin trying to prove to herself that she’s not a slut, though I would have slapped Marshall if he’d called me a slut! Just because he’s all loved up with his first love doesn’t mean that the rest of us have to wait for true love to have sex! Luckily! Bit of a double standard going on there: Barney gets to sleep around all the time and Marshall never calls him a slut!

Quote:

Naked guy on couch: “The naked man is a last resort, kind of a Hail Mary of first dates, when you know there isn’t going to be a second date.”
Ted: “How do you know there isn’t going to be a second date?”
Naked Guy: “Just look at me Ted.”
Ted “I’d rather not.”
