• The Captain : I hear my wife got you pretty good.

  Ted Mosby : She caught me on tape trashing GNB.

  The Captain : Ohh that damn recorder... Try being married to that. You're a good guy Galactic President Superstar McAwesomeville. Tell you what, when Zoey goes to sleep, I'll find that tape and erase it for you, no hard feelings.

  Ted Mosby : Really? You'd do that to your own wife?

  The Captain : Sure, why not? I mean, I'm glad she has these little causes, they keep her out of trouble, but... When she throws a temper tantrum and it gets in the way of someone doing their job, that's a problem.

  Ted Mosby : No, you know what? Don't erase the tape. And for what it's worth, I don't think she's throwing temper tantrums. I just think she's standing up for what she believes in. I respect that.

  Narrator : Kids, there is an amazing architectural phenomenon in the Natural History Museum. If you stand in the right spot, you can hear a conversation, all the way across the room.

  [See Zoey has heard the entire conversation] 

• Zoey Pierson : Ted, this is my husband.

  Ted Mosby : So Captain, how did you get that name?

  The Captain : I gave it to myself. A real man chooses his real name.

  Ted Mosby : Well, pleased to meet you, Captain. I'm Galactic President Superstar MacAwesomeville.
