Warning: Spoilers
I don't write reviews on episodes usually however i was compelled to write one here. This is the best episode of season 7 without doubt.

We finally see the story move on from the monotonous nature of season 7 so far. The story told about the Hurricane Irene helps us connect to the ongoing situations of the characters even more, especially Barnie and Robin.

The season started on the note that Robin still isn't over Barnie and via this episode we learn how. The love and affection Robin never got from her father, she sees all this in Barnie. Hence now i understand why it was necessary to introduce a shrink into the scenario; to make sense out of the relationship between Robin and Barnie.

Even more intriguing is the fact that throughout this season and almost the whole of this episode, Barnie shows he is in love with Norra. So what happens at the end of this episode left me stunned.

After a long time, i cant wait for the next episode of HIMYM. I remember this happened during the first 5 seasons, i was hooked on it. After that most episodes weren't about the story but just laughs.

I hope the writers recapture our imagination and keep us hooked. My request to the writers, keep it funny but also run the story along.

I can safely say this after a long time, i am so looking forward to the next episode of How I Met Your Mother ......
