One Of The Best Episodes

TV gold right here ladies and gentleman, this is one of THE best episodes of "How I Met Your Mother"

Plot In A Paragraph: When the gang hear of a desperate move by a date got Robin in to bed, Barney is impressed enough to want to try it, and convinced Ted that he too should try the move known as "The Naked Man". Meanwhile Lily tries to compile a list of reasons to have sex.

This was brilliant. When Barmey and Ted were both naked trying out positions for the naked man, I was actually howling with laughter, and did not stop!! It was hilarious.

I was talking about this episode the next day in a bar with my friends, and they all agreed it was one of the best episodes.

Trivia
The bookmarked poem by Pablo Neruda is "Mañana XXVII", the first line of which is "Desnuda, eres tan simple como una de tus manos". In English, that's "Naked, you are as simple as one of your hands". The rest of the poem describes features of his lover's naked body.

Goofs
In the beginning of the episode, Ted states that he has walked into very strange stuff in his room over the years. When the goat is shown, the date below says 6 May, while he states in an earlier episode that the thing with the goat happened on his 31st birthday, which is on April the 25th

Quotes
Ted Mosby: A toast, to Mitch. By the sum of his parts, he's just a man. But with what he does with those parts, he becomes so much more. He may not fit society's definition of a hero, but he is the hero I needed. The hero who helped me recover the disaster of my failed almost marriage and back into the game. He lives in the shadows. Is he a dream? Truth? Fiction? Damnation? Salvation? He is all these things, and none of them. For he is... "The Naked Man."
