Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Season 2, episode 4: "Ted Mosby: Architect" There was a brief dialogue that occurred thrice in the episode, going as follows: A: "Yeah, you did!" B: "Had to..." It was heard in scenes when Ted, Barney and Marshall discussed Ted's boss's artistic perspective plan of a 78-story skyscraper to be constructed at Spokane, Washington, and when Ted had to leave Anna (who remarked about architects as "sexy" professionals) to Barney in order to finish the project. Which of the following lines did not act as the keywords to initiating the said dialogue?

Answer: "Instead, I'm spending 12 hours a day designing the cornices." (Ted)

Of course, there was a humorous metaphor surrounding the dialogue and its threefold recurrence. When Marshall remarked about the skyscraper as being "the whole package", he exhibited admiration over it and metonymically wanted to "hit" on the building. Barney declared that he wanted to inhabit (or "hit") a condominium with that design--anywhere excluding areas near the "shaft" or column. When Ted imagined his skyscraper project getting more difficult to work on, he jokingly stressed himself to "hit" on it "harder and harder". All cases came with a fist bump.

"Yeah, you did!" "That doesn't work."
2. Season 4, episode 9: "The Naked Man" According to Future Ted's narration for the story, Ted had gone across numerous "crazy [occasions] in [his] old apartment all over the years", encountering them upon his entry to the room. What voices or sounds did he hear on the 15th of December 2006?

Answer: "Ike, why are you pointing your gun at me?!"

The episode presented real-life examples of these phenomena before the cinematography went on to Ted's meeting with Mitch, sitting naked on the couch to pull off a way to start having sex with Robin, the latter's date at that time. Ten days before Christmas in 2006, the apartment was almost robbed.

However, Robin braced her gun upon catching the two foolish robbers in the act while Marshall and Lily hugged each other on the couch feeling scared. Ted stood by the door in fear, holding some groceries. "Drop it!" "You first!" "Ike, why are you pointing your gun at me?!" "Don't use my name!" "Put the gun down now!"
3. Season 1, episode 17: "Live Among The Gorillas" A co-worker in UltraCell's legal department, Bilson (Bryan Callen), teased Marshall (Jason Segel)--in the latter's internship as a lawyer-- by devising a game in which the player chooses between two women based on fictional accounts. There was a primary expression in that game, which was further mentioned six times throughout the episode. What was it?

Answer: "What do you do? Go."

Bilson and Blauman (starred by Taran Killam) employed their casual and almost perverted behavior to engage Marshall in such a game. They asked him to choose between at least two women to get with, including Jessica Alba and Jessica Simpson, the four Golden Girls (Bea Arthur, Betty White, Rue McClanahan, and Estelle Getty), and Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson. Future Ted (voiced by Bob Saget) adopted such a game to demonstrate Ted's dilemma over his waiting for Victoria's call from Germany, producing a cliffhanger ending to the story.
4. Season 6, episode 2: "Cleaning House" To what Norwegian traditional dish was Marshall making a reference on what he claimed Santa Claus needed to eat along with milk when he secretly entered every home to put gifts, before Lily said "Santa doesn't get cookies in Minnesota?"?

Answer: Lutefisk, salted whitefish prepared with lye

Lily and Marshall argued about telling their future kids about Santa Claus with regards to his being a fictional character. The former responded that she would be telling her kids that Santa does not exist.

"That's just what Santa needs at 3:00 am when he's battling a snowstorm over the Rockies--a sugar crash! No. Santa needs protein."
5. Season 3, episode 5: "How I Met Everyone Else" Excluding flashbacks and foreshadowed scenes, all of the dialogues for the episode took place at MacLaren's Bar in the fall of 2007.

Answer: True

The gang, along with Ted's girlfriend (named "Blah Blah" after forgetting her real name), all spent time in a booth in MacLaren's conversing about how they met one another to change the subject of Ted's "embarrassing" online encounter with Blah Blah. The girlfriend, played by Abigail Spencer, was found to be acting crazy to assume that Robin, single at the time, had feelings for Ted.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no... Barney and I are not together. No, no..."
6. Season 2, Episode 4: "Ted Mosby: Architect" What five-word phrase can complete the following statement, as read in a "lovely form letter" to Anna, whom Barney addressed as an unknown "resident"? "Dear resident, the time we spent together, however long it was, meant the world to me. I would love to see you again but, unfortunately, I cannot. You see, I... am a ghost. I can only materialize once every decade on the anniversary of my death. I'd chose to spend my one day among the living with you, sweet resident. Perhaps, we will meet again in another decade, ________. Until then, all my love from the beyond... Barney."

Answer: provided you keep your figure

We learned that Barney only pretended to be Ted, a career architect, to prove that such skilled drafters and planners, like the latter, appear attractive in the eyes of women. Knowing for a long time that Ted cheated her, Robin felt relieved but not on her flaws as her girlfriend who thought too much about him cheating her after their first major spat as a couple.

"And, that led to a couple of hours that I cannot, as a gentleman, divulge to you. We did it right here, and here, and here."
7. Season 4, episode 9: "The Naked Man" Who said the following lines? "All these years, I have been bustin' my hump with my secret identities, and my tricks, and my gadgets. I mean, I'm like Batman! But, this Mitch fellow?! He's Superman! He just rips off his clothes and he's good to go!"

Answer: Barney Stinson

Barney, despite knowing about someone dating Robin whom he fell in love with (much to Lily's perplexity), felt overjoyed about the move called "The Naked Man", which may "revolutionize the one-night stand". In his words, he praised Mitch for being the first to pull off what he may call the move beyond all that were written in his Playbook.

"What kind of gadgets are we talking about?"
8. Season 1, episode 17: "Life Among The Gorillas" What word should fill each blank in this dialogue? Marshall: "I wanna give you the _______." Lily: "_______? You've already given me the _______. You've got a great _______, Marshall. "I love your _______." Marshall: "Lily, you're the most incredible woman I know and you deserve a big _______." Lily: "Your _______ has always been big enough! You may not realize this, Marshall Eriksen, but you've got a huge _______."

Answer: package

The conversation took place at a karaoke bar after Marshall accepted Bilson and Blauman's offer that he would work as a lawyer after graduating from Columbia Law School. This was despite feeling the nerves before encountering a probable risk of shifting from his plan to achieving expertise in environmental law.
9. Season 3, episode 5: "How I Met Everyone Else" Which of the following lines did Lily say throughout the episode?

Answer: "Dude, we're 42."

The line was said during a foreshadowed scene, when Ted, Marshall and Lily gathered in a Wesleyan University Batch 2000 reunion. While they secretly ate and shared a piece of "sandwich" (euphemism for "marijuana"), Marshall asked Lily if they could grow some "sandwiches" in their garage and she remarked that way.

"Where's my wife?"
10. Season 6, episode 2: "Cleaning House" How did Robin and Ted, sitting in the backyard of Sam Gibbs's house, react to how the day was going by?

Answer: "Weird day..."

After discovering Sam Gibbs, who eventually turned out not to be his father but his half-brother James' father, Barney Stinson had to take it only positively as though Sam was also his father. During Sam and James's duet ("Stand By Me" by Ben E. King), Barney interrupted them through his scat-singing. This scene immediately transitioned to that of Robin and Ted's reaction. "Weird day..."
11. Season 5, episode 22: "Robots Versus Wrestlers" At what line/pagination from Dante Alighieri's poem, "The Divine Comedy", did Ted pause before answering a cellphone call during Jefferson van Smoot's Annual Spring Social at The Alberta in Manhattan?

Answer: "...che la verace via abbandonai."

It was revealed in the episode that Ted would get interrupted by fart noises, that the rest of the gang make, whenever he tried to act intellectual and classy. As he mingled with the elite-class attendees in the party, he recited to them the Italian translation of "The Divine Comedy".

The English translation to the line is "...when I forsook the pathway of the truth." While Ted recited, Peter Bogdanovich (as himself) tried to hinder a nosebleed in tolerating Ted's high-minded expression.
12. Season 1, episode 17: "Life Among The Gorillas" Ted once asked Victoria in a phone call a few things, including about what she was eating in Germany for lunch, which was rye bread. What did Ted do afterwards in the middle of the discourse?

Answer: He unintentionally fell asleep.

In the same phone call, Ted had to know then from Victoria if she received his New York-themed care package (some bagels, an Empire State Building key chain, a New York Time newspaper dated three days ago). However, although not meant to happen, Ted inevitably got himself some shut-eye and his mouth open. "Oh, Teddy Boy!"
13. Season 5, episode 22: "Robots Versus Wrestlers" Where in France did the white wine, which Ted blind-tasted in the Spring Social and described as having "citrus and honeycomb flavors with crisp acidity", originate?

Answer: Sancerre, Loire Valley region

Ted was invited by Marissa Heller, a high-class individual, for a blind-tasting of French white wines. He remarked using the word "decant" as a pun: "Well, I 'decant' miss that." During the tasting, he correctly guessed he took a sip of a sauvignon blanc produced from the area of Sancerre. In one flashback, he tried a drink of a Syrah wine, that is produced in the Rhône region.
14. Season 3, episode 5: "How I Met Everyone Else" In this episode, Barney was seen imaginatively illustrating the graph for the "Hot-Crazy Scale", which defined the ratio of a woman's hotness to her craziness and proposed that an appropriate "hot and crazy" woman for a certain guy should have equal magnitudes of such factors, the graph for which was dubbed as the "Vicky Mendoza diagonal". When he brought about a date of his, Vicky Mendoza, he plotted the ratio values to describe with correspondence to different occasions. When he plotted the point where hotness was equally "at its highest" as craziness, what did he say of her?

Answer: "She'd stab me with a fork..."

For Robin's knowledge, Barney illustrated the "Hot-Crazy Scale" to prove Ted wrong about his girlfriend (whose name he ended up forgetting after 23 years) that she was only hot and not crazy at all. Barney suggested that she was also crazy given the scale. Throughout the episode, Barney made references on the scale to two of his dates, Vicky Mendoza and Shelly Gillespie.

The so-called "Shelly Gillespie zone" covered the area on the scale where women are only halfway as hot as they are crazy. "I should give her a call."
15. Season 2, Episode 4: "Ted Mosby: Architect" Which actors/actresses (A and B) were the participants in this dialogue? Which actress (C) physically accompanied A and B in the conversation? A: "And, what made you decide you want to become an architect?" B: "Well, you know... Soul of an artist, hands of a master craftsman... It was inevitable, I guess." A: "I bet you can draw it, can't you?" (B snickers.) A: "You should draw me!" B: "Well, I could try but you might end up looking like a mid-century tri-level." (A, B, and C laugh.)

Answer: Dawn Olivieri (A), Josh Radnor (B), Maria Arce (C)

With initial hesitation, Ted (Josh Radnor) tried surveying women's impressions of architects like him. When he scored a positive reaction from Anna (Dawn Olivieri), he continued the talk. Based on how the story presented itself one scene at a time, the conversation moved to a booth within MacLaren's Bar, alongside Paula (Maria Arce).

In actuality (although not shown), Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) would have been in the place of Ted pretending to be him as an "attractive" architect.
