331
00:18:14,406 --> 00:18:18,364
April just finished her shift,
and she's looking to blow off some steam.

332
00:18:18,476 --> 00:18:19,670
(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

333
00:18:19,777 --> 00:18:22,177
Would you excuse us for one sec?

334
00:18:23,014 --> 00:18:25,243
- What are you doing?
- Well, you were so nice to me tonight,

335
00:18:25,348 --> 00:18:28,374
I wanted to return the favor,
wingwoman style.

336
00:18:29,219 --> 00:18:32,882
So, as I was saying, April, Barney
is the Yankees' new second-baseman.

337
00:18:32,989 --> 00:18:35,286
And Barney, April asked if tomorrow,

338
00:18:35,391 --> 00:18:39,191
you could hit a goal for her
during the baseball match.

339
00:18:39,295 --> 00:18:41,559
You can't make this stuff up.

340
00:18:42,198 --> 00:18:44,290
So, you two kids have fun.

341
00:18:46,768 --> 00:18:48,998
So, are you nervous about the game?

342
00:18:49,104 --> 00:18:53,938
Yeah, I'm nervous for the other team,
'cause when I step up to that plate...

343
00:18:56,844 --> 00:18:59,404
Look, April, I am not a New York Yankee.

344
00:18:59,513 --> 00:19:02,481
Any other night, I would probably try
to convince you that I am, but I'm not.

345
00:19:02,582 --> 00:19:06,484
I'm just some guy
who's in love with the girl that just left,

346
00:19:06,586 --> 00:19:09,554
and she's never gonna feel the same way.

347
00:19:11,389 --> 00:19:13,380
So I'm just gonna go.

348
00:19:14,126 --> 00:19:17,493
- And that was it.
- I'm so sorry, Barney.

349
00:19:19,029 --> 00:19:20,860
But you can't give up.

350
00:19:20,965 --> 00:19:24,366
You know, it may take some time,
but once Robin really sees the new you...

351
00:19:24,468 --> 00:19:27,301
Barney, when my family
gets to Yankee Stadium,

352
00:19:27,403 --> 00:19:29,064
are the tickets under your name or mine?

353
00:19:29,205 --> 00:19:31,639
My name, and tell your nephews
to bring their mitts.

354
00:19:31,741 --> 00:19:35,108
- They're going to be in foul-ball country.
- Okay.

355
00:19:36,146 --> 00:19:39,410
Come on. Okay, well,
the Robin stuff was completely true.

356
00:19:39,515 --> 00:19:40,504
Ow!

357
00:19:40,616 --> 00:19:41,844
Damn it, Barney.

358
00:19:41,950 --> 00:19:47,387
I mean, for the last time, you can't,
you can't be in love with Robin

359
00:19:47,488 --> 00:19:50,582
and still be sleeping with
every bimbo on the planet.

360
00:19:50,691 --> 00:19:52,989
You have to choose right now.

361
00:19:54,561 --> 00:19:55,960
- I choose bimbos.
- What?

362
00:19:56,062 --> 00:20:00,965
Hey, Lily, bimbos make me happy.
Bimbos make me feel alive.

363
00:20:01,067 --> 00:20:05,264
Bimbos make me want to pretend
to be a better man.

364
00:20:05,371 --> 00:20:07,134
This whole thing with Robin
was just a fling,

365
00:20:07,239 --> 00:20:10,731
but at the end of the day,
my heart belongs to bimbos.

366
00:20:10,843 --> 00:20:15,336
No, no, this is just a defense mechanism
because you're afraid of getting hurt.

367
00:20:15,446 --> 00:20:17,414
You're just confused.

368
00:20:17,515 --> 00:20:21,848
I'm not confused, Lily.
You know who is confused?

369
00:20:21,952 --> 00:20:24,352
Bimbos. They're easily confused.

370
00:20:24,454 --> 00:20:27,787
It's one of the thousand little things
I love about them.

371
00:20:27,891 --> 00:20:31,291
I love their vacant, trusting stares,

372
00:20:31,394 --> 00:20:36,855
their sluggish, unencumbered minds,
their unresolved daddy issues.

373
00:20:36,966 --> 00:20:39,957
I love them, Lily, and they love me.

374
00:20:40,068 --> 00:20:44,334
Bimbos have always been there for me,
through thick and thin.

375
00:20:44,439 --> 00:20:47,738
Mostly thin. B-man don't do thick crust.
What up?

376
00:20:47,842 --> 00:20:49,502
See you, Barney.

377
00:20:49,977 --> 00:20:51,001
Oh.

378
00:20:56,784 --> 00:20:58,182
(SIGHS)

379
00:21:03,756 --> 00:21:04,723
(INAUDIBLE)

380
00:21:17,902 --> 00:21:19,767
(ALL LAUGHING)

381
00:21:19,870 --> 00:21:21,997
- Chimichanga.
- We have to go.
