The Final Page: Part One

This episode is one of the sillier episodes of "How I Met Your Mother" but unlike a lot of this season, it is a lot of fun. And it's all down to one man. Neil Patrick Harris take a bow sir.

Plot In A Paragraph: Ted wants to rub his new building in the face of an old professor, Barney is the victim of a very lengthy jinx, meanwhile, Marshall and Lily run into an annoying old acquaintance, and Robin gets an opportunity to fire Patrice.

Neil Patrick Harris is a lot of fun (when isn't the man brilliant??) as the silent Barney, and the episode ends with a surprise revelation about Barney's future plans....

Guest stars Seth Green (Alyson Hannigan's co-star in Buffy) and Perer Gallagher are both fun here too, hopefully this sees a turn Round in the fortunes of the season.

Marshall jinxes barney and he is not allowed to say another word till his name is said by someone present in the time of jinx.

Ted's building is finally gonna open the next day. so he sends an R.S.V.P to his architecture professor back in college Professor Vinick. only to find that he refuses as he doesn't remember him. this leads to a road trip where Marshall and lily meet their hack amigo friend Daryl and Ted tries to have revenge over Vinick and barney tries to get out of the jinx.

meanwhile robin gets a chance to fire Patrice by sandy rivers her co host.

this was a great episode leading to great moments and with a beautiful message. thumbs up himym.

I like the bit where he smokes and farts in the car
