How I Met Your Mother: Is There A Barney/Robin Sex Tape?

thumbnail icon: How I Met Your Mother: Is There A Barney/Robin Sex Tape?

Whoa! On last night's only so-so episode (full episode here), Barney rebounds from his breakup with Ted by taking up with Will Forte as his "rebound bro," and Ted and Stella's relationship moves forward even though we know she can't be The Mother because, as commenter Carol pointed out last week: "The kids would know if they had an older half-sister." We know from the last two episodes that Barney and Robin hooked up, everyone found out, and now they're pretending it never happened. There were few references to the incident in this episode, but this throwaway line of dialogue could provide clues for the future. Robin showed up to help Barney train Will Forte as a wingman:

Barney: My friend Robin here has agreed to help out.
Robin: Because you threatened to put a video of us on the internet which I'm still not convinced you have.
Barney: Right, which is why you came all the way from Brooklyn at midnight.

There are no clues on Barney's updated blog, but there is an hilarious application to become his wingman ("For some reason you're pretending to be British. Who is your president?"). Still, I predict a Barney/Robin sex tape Season 3 cliffhanger!

Carol's point from last week is a good one: "The kids would know if they had an older half-sister." I can't really tell the age of the kids Ted is talking to, but is it possible that one of them is now his step-daughter, Stella's daughter? Even if not ,I still don't think that anything Ted said excludes the possibility that the kids do have an older half-sister and Ted is telling the story of how she met Stella (and her kid).

I suppose you are right. There's ways around it and I imagine the show is aiming to keep it that way. I love that this blog over-analyzes HIMYM as much as I do.
