Quotes 

• Narrator : Kids, here's the deal with Trilogy Time. It all started a long time ago in a dorm room far, far away...

  [Star Wars-esque credits say "Wesleyan The Year 2000"] 

  Marshall Eriksen : Dude, if we fail this e-con final, for the rest of are lives we're not gonna be able to...

  [Waves hands, unable able to think of anything] 

  Marshall Eriksen : We won't know how to...

  [Fails again] 

  Marshall Eriksen : Do you even know what E-con is?

  Ted Mosby : No idea, we're screwed. Well there's only one thing left to do at a time like this: watch the entire Star Wars trilogy all the way through 'cause I haven't done that in like five years!

  Marshall Eriksen : Dude, you can't let that happen. If you're not trilling it at least once every three years, the dark side wins.

• Ted Mosby : [Imagining what 2003 will be like]  Our band is gonna be in demand.

  Marshall Eriksen : And luckily there will be plenty of supply.

  Ted Mosby : Supply? Demand? Dude, do you realize what we just did? We used E-con! We're gonna ace this final!

  Narrator : ...We both got zeros.

• Ted Mosby : Every three years we sit down and Tril it up, agreed?

  Marshall Eriksen : A-greedo!

• Marshall Eriksen : [In 2009]  How 'bout you Ted, how's your life gonna be different in three years?

  Ted Mosby : Oh, you know, the usual. Gonna met a nice girl and get married. I know I say that every year, but let's be honest in 2012, I'll be 34. If it still hasn't happened for me by then, something is seriously wrong with me.

  [Him and the guys laugh] 

  Ted Mosby : [In 2012, spoken sadly]  Something is seriously wrong with me.

• Barney Stinson : For the first time in my life, I don't want to find myself in three years with some random girl; no matter how many boobs she has. I want to be with Quinn. Guys, you're going to be seeing a lot more of Quinn.

  Marshall Eriksen : Dude, we've been to the Lusty Leopard, we've seen plenty.

  Barney Stinson : I kinda walked into that one.

• Marshall Eriksen : Where is Robin?

  Narrator : In the summer of 2009, Barney and Robin were secretly dating.

  Ted Mosby : Oh, Barney said she's taking some extension class on how to decoupage and Barney's taking a different decoupage class in the same building- that's why they shared a cab that one time.

  Narrator : We were idiots.

  Marshall Eriksen : Wait a minute. You're saying that Barney Stinson is at a decoupage class? That means we can watch Star Wars on his giant TV!

• Marshall Eriksen : TV... play... Star Wars trilogy... Play Star Wars tril' You know what? Screw it.

  Ted Mosby : Okay, you are about to see something awesome.

  Barney Stinson : And just know this: Han shot first.

• Marshall Eriksen : [In 2003]  I don't see anyway our lives are better now than they were three years ago.

  Barney Stinson : Oh really Marshall? Nothing comes to mind?

  [Points to girl he's with] 

  Barney Stinson : By the way guys, this is Lisa you'll be seeing a lot more of Lisa.

  [She leaves] 

  Barney Stinson : And they never saw her again. Waz-up!

• Marshall Eriksen : [Imagining 2006]  What about you Barney, any predictions for 2006?

  Barney Stinson : Oh yeah, picture it.

  [Flash to 2006, Barney's with another girl] 

  Barney Stinson : By the way guys, this is Jodie. You'll be seeing a lot more of Jodie.

  [She leaves] 

  Barney Stinson : And they never saw her again. Waz-up!

• Lily Aldrin : [In Ted's imagination]  I'm pregnant with baby number five!

  Ted Mosby : But baby number four isn't out yet!

  Marshall Eriksen : I'm just that good!
