How I Met Your Mother: Season 5 Premiere Preview
By
The day Ted, Marshall and Lily finally learn about Barney and Robin’s relationship has finally arrived! How I Met Your Mother returns tonight for its highly anticipated fifth season with an episode that’s fittingly entitled “Definitions.”
Ever since Barney told Robin how he feels about her in How I Met Your Mother’s fourth season finale, I’ve been imagining what will happen to these two if they got into a relationship, officially. Barney, the show’s resident playboy, isn’t exactly the type who would put a label on his affairs but this time, he’s seeing not just any other girl… it’s Robin!
Still, I’m having a hard time picturing Barney being all romantic and cheesy just because he’s with Robin now. But I’m not alone on this one. Barney himself is struggling with that thought and when the gang finds out about his relationship with Robin, both Barney and Robin hesitate to define what they have.
As you’d expect, Marshall and Lily encourage Barney to have “the talk” with Robin, even suggesting that it would only take five minutes and that he can have sex afterwards. Ted, on the other hand, is not in favor of having “the talk” because he simply believes that Robin is already Barney’s girlfriend. It’s a hilarious scene, which you can check out below, and it finds Barney defying the rules he created.
Meanwhile, Ted is anxious about teaching his first lecture at Columbia. He’s very nervous and is not used to speaking in front of so many people so he decides to maintain control of his students by releasing his “inner douche.” Unfortunately, this approach backfires miserably.
