Wow, I have to say though I expected the ending it was a bit rushed and way too sad. Why the heck did they do the entire season 9 then of Swarkles wedding to break them up? It just didn't make much sense but I guess it was a pretty good finale.
"Ted?" she calls out to him in shock. It's like they went backwards in time and she had just moved to New York.
His smile fades as he sees her stunned look. "I can't do this" he moans and sits on the curb. She quickly runs out of her apartment and is beside him in less then five minutes.
"What's going on Ted?" she asks. He looks to her and his eyes scream pain and anguish.
"I'm sorry Robin, the kids thought it was an awesome idea but…I really…I really can't…I just really can't be that guy again" he stammers.
"You can't relive the past" she muses and he nods. "I told the kids the story how I met their mom because its been so long since she's been in my arms. I thought it'd help ease the pain but they thought it was me asking them if I could date you again" he responds.
"You don't want to date me again?" she asks and he just shrugs. "I wasn't really thinking about it to be honest. When the kids told me to go for it I decided it was worth a try, so I stole the horn again and came here" he answers.
"What changed your mind?"
"When you popped out and held a confused look on your face, I just felt like I was cheating her, like I was trying to pretend I didn't even meet her. Like you were the only love of my life."
"No Ted, you were just trying to be happy again. I have no doubt in my mind you love Tracy immensely. Out of every woman you ever been with, me included, you love her the most, you always have and always will"
"Why'd she have to get hurt then Robin? I still really love her and I just want to be with her forever" he asks and tears fall from his eyes.
"Oh Ted, I'm so sorry" she tells him softly and he allows her to hold him tightly.
"I'm so scared Robin. I'm tired of being alone but all I want is Tracy to come home, I'm so sorry for coming here and acting like a jerk" he mumbles.
She rubs his back. "It's okay Ted, I had a feeling you were just feeling lonely finally and getting tired of being so brave for your children" she tells him.
He gives her a smile and stands up. "Thanks for being such an amazing friend to me Robin" he says as he helps her up.
"Are you kidding me Mosby? After all the times you've helped me this is the least I can do" she answers. "Lets go upstairs where the chairs are comfy" she then suggests and he nods. She gets him upstairs and seats him on the couch.
"Why don't you just relax a bit first" she suggests. He nods again and she goes to get him some water. When she returns she finds him sound asleep and takes off his shoes and tucks him onto her couch.
She watches him sleep a moment and then picks up her phone. "Hey, it's me, are you busy?"
The man doesn't reply for a few seconds. "Are you there?" she calls to him worried.
"I'm here and no I'm free tonight" he answers.
"Can you come over to my place? I need to talk to you" she asks.
"I'll be there shortly" he promises and hangs up. Robin holds the phone in her hands and hopes she's making the right choices this time.
