'Kids, I'm gonna tell you an incredible story.' Ignoring finale and starting just moments after Barney and Robin's excruciating long wedding weekend, here's how Ted and the Mother dated, fell in love and had kids.

"Nothing is more expensive than a missed opportunity." With Barney engaged to someone else, Robin tries to move on by starting over.

"Let's get married," she blurted out, effectively bringing any further conversation about laser tag to an abrupt halt. She really didn't mean to say it like that. When Barney looked at her like he'd just seen a ghost, she considered back-pedaling.
