Storyline

Marshall and Lily and Robin and Kevin having been double dating. Robin and Kevin have had to endure watching Marshall and Lily fight all the time, while they say that they don't fight. Regardless, Kevin decides that he wants to move to the next step with Robin: he asks her to marry him. After thinking about the proposal, Robin thinks she knows how she will answer, but first she needs to clear the air which may change the picture entirely. Meanwhile, despite Barney having a sure thing, he acts as wing man for Ted. Quinn, the wing girl of Ted's prey for the evening, ends up being wise to Barney's manipulative ways. For missing out on his sure thing, Barney believes that Ted owes him one. What Barney wants as his payment, after hearing about it from Marshall and Lily, is for him and Ted to take the "drunk train" i.e. the last train out to Long Island where everyone inebriated is willing to go to bed with anyone else on board. The drunk train experience doesn't end up being what either ...

I am not at all happy where the series is going .....

After 15 'Not so appealing' episodes of How i met your mother in season 7, Episode 16 brought another hopeless twist in the tale... Ted & Robin again coming back in action and this shows that writers have nothing left to think and deliver ( No offence).

Anyways, WE knew relationship of Kevin and Robin wouldn't last long but if they are breaking up and robin is getting back with ted then i put my money back on kevin and robin. It seems that they writers aren't sure of who the mother is and if robin on the other hand is aunt cum mother then this show is already on the path of its downfall..

Hope they think of something new and get robin and Barney back together or someone else. My opinion on ted and robin- 'Boringgggggggg'. All the best to the writers cuz they need that in abundance.
