This show is starting to get a bit annoying. They are pulling a Friends with the back and forth of "who's in love with Robin this week" crap.
Well they've both been in love with Robin for awhile, so it shouldn't really come as a surprise.
I'm really glad they are done with Kumar's character though, should have never been on the show in the first place.
Ted and Robin have been done for a long time now and it was just BOOM "I love you Robin!" Pretty much lazy writing IMHO. Plus we know she's not the mother so why waste time with this rehash.
So... Ted ends up marrying Robin. But since Robin can't have children, he meets his children's "mother" by being introduced to a surrogate. And, since Robin had told Kumar that she never wanted to be a mother, she agrees as long as the children will refer to her as Aunt Robin.
Any other questions?
Still, Marshall said, "not yet" at the end, about the bet. That makes me wonder if they're still planning on getting them back together somewhere down the road. That plot is tired, please drop it, writers.
I really found that episode kind of pointless; seems the writers ran of idea and threw this in as a filler episode. Out of nowhere Ted confesses his love for Robin and then it gets cleared up in the span of one episode.
that's been a fixture for every season. lots of dead ends, but you're missing the key point that was made. The next woman Ted says "I love you" to is the mother. And whoever it is, he's never said that to her before.
