How i met your mother doesn't get better than this. This episode of how i met your mother shows the traumatic life of the mother from when the man she loved died on her 21st Birthday. It just shows how this show works. Throughout the episode you see Ted being so close to meeting the mother due to being in the right place just a few seconds from he right time. We also meet the Mothers friendship circle which contains a female version of barney, just less well... Barney. There is no wonder this episode makes it's way into my favorite How I Met Your Mother episodes of all time since it shows all the moments we love from most series from a different angle. Final Word to sum it up: Perfect. 10/10
