《#HIMYM# S4 》剧情梗概 19.11.151.barney还真的喜欢上robin了，但是一边想追她，一边又不停的睡女人。

2.内裤半径理论&全纽约最好吃的burger。

3.大概是讲Ted对新西兰的的厌恶为了Stella又决定搬来和她一起住。

（之前我还讲ted对robin的妥协是因为他爱他，现在看来就是一个这样性格的人而已）（而且他为什么坚信stella就是他的唯一呢，很让人迷惑，他们两个相处干巴巴的，好无聊）4.Ted要搬去新西兰和stella同住，Marshall和Lily也要搬去他们的新公寓，robin也要去日本工作，但是打包行李的时候看到房间里的痕迹又反悔了，去楼下酒吧happy看到Barney在假扮老人泡妞，又觉得还是应该坚持原本的计划。

5. Ted和stella的婚礼之日，stella不想邀请她和ted的前任，但两个人还是都出现了，然后结局就改变了。

（感觉编剧真的厉害，把一个这样的情节讲得这么自然，四两拨千斤）6.Ted在餐厅看到stella，不敢跟她碰面，五个人就钻在桌子底下，讨论起了“关于那些我们不想面对的人和事”，重点是Robin，她最不想见的人就是她爸，因为他想要的是一个儿子，就把Robin当成一个男生养。

Ted从这些故事里得到了启发，决定去找stella说清楚，雄姿勃发地告诉她，放弃他是她最错误的选择，但是……（这一集我好喜欢呀。

又忍不住想夸一下编剧牛掰，这真的是一个情景喜剧吗？

太有内涵吧）7.barney的“非父节”，marshall和lily考虑生孩子。

这应该是r.t第二季分手以来说话最多的一次……robin没有工作也没有地方住，准备去ted那里借住。

8.——（突然讨厌barney，自私幼稚）9.裸体冲击，脱光光去泡妞。

（robin是不是太随便了）10.酒吧暴力的酒保duge喊三剑客一起去干架，Ted和barney赶到的时候，人已经被duge放倒了，但是duge太兴奋了脑子不清楚以为两个人有帮上什么忙回到酒吧给人大肆吹嘘，然后t和b接到了诉讼，Marshall给他们摆平了，才发现隐藏的王者居然是一开始就被他们看扁的Marshall，Ted被duge戳痛处生平第一次出手打人。

11.Ted的表妹，m陪r去另一家酒吧玩。

（这一集有一点无聊）12.Ted和robin住在一起以滚床单来解决争吵，barney听了受刺激就去酒吧后面砸电视，然后跑到他们家里给他搞卫生买工具，被ted看出来他喜欢上了robin，但他不承认。

barney鼓起勇气去找robin表白，但是robin也是把他当花花公子看，没想到这回事。

13.三天大雪，Ted和barney在楼下酒吧瞎搞。

Marshall和Lily在纠结中坚持着他们的情侣惯例：一个人捧着写着名字的牌子去接机，一个人带着六瓶装的酒当做礼物送给对方。

14.Robin要在一周内找到工作，不然就要被遣送回国，barney给拍了一套跟他一样夸张搞笑的视频当简历并帮她联系工作……嗯，M和L那一part我又在发呆没看懂。

15.Barney找了一个演员来演他的妻子，再找一个儿童演员来演他的儿子，想要他妈妈看到他并非孤家寡人，有一个幸福的生活，还算顺利，结果撞见ted和他的“妻子”在给他戴绿帽，然后就开始了演员的诞生，最后barney说出了实情，他妈妈表示理解他并支持他追求真爱。

不过，他妈妈听起来就跟barney一样浪荡。

16.17 Ted又和他高中时期的渣女友Karen一起约会，Lily把robin的耳环放在他床上，Karen看到了怀疑他和robin的关系，接受不了就分手了。

几个人聚在凌晨3点等着看robin的节目，Barney和marshall穿睡眠衬衣体验放飞自我的感觉，ted和Lily吵架，怪她从中作梗拆散了他好几任女朋友，包括robin，lily觉得他们方向不同未免年老后悔不断的暗示他们未来人生的方向，思考到这一点的t, r最终分手。

Ted指控Lily不该干涉他的感情，Lily给他道歉，还给他和Karen做了一顿丰富的晚餐，不过Ted和robin一起吃了那顿饭，两个人约定做对方的备胎夫妻。

18.——19.年轻人会做的事和老年人会做的事。

严厉的教育和纵容的教育。

20. ted开了自己的建筑公司，招来的一个助理和robin混在一起了，barney很生气想找lily开解，但是lily给他讲的一个恶俗的段子气走了，他磕磕巴巴地想告诉marshall他喜欢了robin但marshall说他早就知道了，他们就想办法把小助理搞走了。

21.许多事情的巧合凑在一起，让人在某个时间某个地点，发生某件事情。

然后ted就再次碰见了stella。

22.Stella和Tony看他的过得不好就想方设法要补偿ted，但是ted或是不接受或是不能去做。

然后他们两个分手了，stella又来拜托ted去劝解Tony.23.Ted搭讪了一个漂亮的女生，留了电话号码，不过barney说不过三天不能打电话，他们把女生的电话号码换成了自己的工作号，玩弄了ted一顿，ted发现之后也戏弄了一下两个人。

24.Ted的31岁生日，伙伴们在楼顶偷偷的给他办了个party，唯独他自己没有上去，一边工作一边跟lily留下的山羊搏斗。

marshall一直想跳过去对面一个空中庭园，酝酿了无数次还是胆怯，barney准备给robin告白，但robin偷听到了他和ted的谈话，首先对barney说了I love you，正如ted第一次说吓退了她，用在barney身上也奏效了，结果被lily告密，他们就把这个梗玩来玩去。

最后大家一起跳过去了对面的楼顶，生活又翻开了新的一页。

弃剧啦。

我是喜欢tr党，但现在觉得robin简直是荡妇，毁了一开始她又飒气又理性的女神形象。

r先是和t在一起，两个人各种腻歪b都看着眼里，分手没多久r b就睡到了一起，一个是ted爱的女友，一个是八年的兄弟，然后他们就在一起了，三个人还一起玩……然后br又结婚又离婚，robin又和ted结婚……妈的，我接受不了。

从一开始我就觉得tr是一对的，搞到后面就br分分合合，7.8年过去老妈一死变成tr，就算结果是这样也很反胃。

（结果我还是跳着看了，看完主要剧情和结局，好感消失了大半总觉得不精彩，好毁……这是我熬夜看的剧吗☹）

1. 马修和ted两个傻子看星球大战的表情 barney中情毒辗转反侧找了lily这个救兵 “ted无论在健康还是生病 开心不开心都看这部电影 你确定能假装一辈子喜欢这部电影吗”“我可以”“那么ted是一个幸运的人”哈哈哈哈马修是个很好的朋友 2. 听完马修那一堆真挚的诗意的唯美的对汉堡的美妙描述 lily来了一句“然后你从网上下载了我们的结婚誓言”哈哈哈 内衣裤活动半径理论 汉堡奇遇记3. “如果你搬来新泽西你可能以后都不用自己拿杯子这什么都有杯托” “我可能没有你在这方面那么有问题”hhhh 乡下人激烈站队多讨厌纽约“纽约的超市太小了 我总是碰倒东西 好像我是从海里出来的大怪兽” 拿了支架支撑起没人击掌的手臂也是barney最后的倔强 哈哈哈 罗宾骑着单车最后坐下还是听劝宣告不干了 听到罗宾要去日本 barney的眼神4. intervention=劝说会 现实生活中面对这种五人友谊四人都搬远了一般就散了 2009年大家还能回来喝2500刀的苏格兰威士忌显得难能可贵5. 千万不要请前任来婚礼 6. 被放弃可能是nature给你安排的最好的礼物 不敢相信如果ted无下限地答应还要搬到新泽西 而现在stella还能为了tony搬来纽约 爱某种程度上是妥协？

How I Met Your Mother S04E24:(Lily): Architecture is killing you,Ted,and it's killing us to watch it killing you. You're like that goat with the washcloth. You want it so bad,and every time the world tries to take it away from you,you keep grabbing it.But you know what? It's just a washcloth. Why do you even want it?(Ted): Because I... I have to be an architect. That's...that's the plan.(Lily): Screw the plan. I planned on being a famous artist. Marshall planned on being an environmental lawyer. Robin planned on being a TV reporter.Barney planned on being a violinist. Look,you can't design your life like a building.It doesn't work that way.You just have to live it,and it will design itself.(Ted): So,what,I should just do nothing?(Lily): No. Listen to what the world is telling you to do and take the leap.Ted:That was the year I got left at the altar.It was the year I got knocked out by a crazy bartender.The year I got fired.The year I got beat up by a goat. A girl goat,at that.And damn it if it wasn't the best year of my life.Because,if any one of those things hadn't happened,I never would have ended up in a which turned out to be the best job I ever had.But more importantly,I wouldn't have met your mother.-That is life and that's why I love this TV so much, it tells you stories about truly committed friends while revealing the truth of life with graceful smile

距离第五集，2个多星期的时间，感觉ted面孔变了，脸还是这张脸但这张脸给我的感觉却变了，我不再像以前，会觉得他可亲，可爱

何时才有第五季？

当第四季最后一集，泰德（不好意思，英文不好）向孩子们说他们的妈妈就在这间教室里，我就震撼了……第五季……这是一部让人欲罢不能的片子。

I think I am in love with Robin.E01就凭这句话开始的这一季 是我心目中最喜欢的一季 真的是最好的一季 没有太多关于爱情的部分 朋友间的化学反应 就有百分百的看点 很多集都是经典 Barney陷入爱情的时候真的太可爱了 Lily 开始教他怎么样打电话 从小事开始怎么做 真的开始约会的时候真的太令人喜欢了 Tonight is going to be delightful.Barney真的认真的时候 真的很甜蜜呀 E02经典的一集 为了寻找纽约的 最好的汉堡 真的看着都好想吃 E03NEW JERSEY VS NEW YORK 可怜的Barney 真的只是想要一个high five E04Barney 的 招数中真的太扯的 时间旅行者 可以穿梭时间的老人 年轻人 但是真的很好笑 Intervention 正式被介绍 真的是很喜欢的一个小插曲 E06每一个朋友 都开始讲述他们的恐惧 但是讲真的 Barney 竟然还在监狱里撒网 真的没有做不到的 只有想不到的 E07Barney got a "dad" scare, and then created a holiday " Not a father's day" . Robin moved in with Ted.SOCK小孩子的袜子真的很可爱啊 不喜欢孩子的Robin Barney 都沦陷了 可怎么办 两个人都对父亲有着一些情节 所以一直以来会觉得两个人真的很合适 E09 "The Naked Man" 真的很难想象这招会好用 怎么可能啊E11Love the interaction between Marshall and Robin at Hoser Hut 一直以来朋友之间 两个人的互动都不多 这一集其实还蛮感动的 Marshall 为了Robin 介绍自己家乡的酒吧Canada VS Minnesota E12Ted found out Barney loves Robin, and Robin and Ted hook up because they are housemates.Barney is so cute when he is in love. 真的很难想象Barney 竟然会单恋 暗恋E13其实一直以来都觉得这部剧Lily Marshall 的爱情故事并不太出彩 但是这一集是真的被感动到 Marshall and Lily's love blizzard at New York. The love rituals are so sweet and they had such a long term relationship. The surprise at the end is so touching.E15Barney pretended to have a family and acting everything out for his mother.

依旧在利用巴尼疯狂输出低俗片段……受不了。

巴尼塑造的像低配版Joey……Joey顶多不负责任，巴尼是完全的玩弄女性，呃呃呃呃呃呃编剧把巴尼这个角色塑造的越来越恶俗，太恶心了。

ep5差点以为要开始多角恋抓马了，结果没想到结尾还能顺过来。

行，也是每个都爱一遍了，Marshall和ted结合一下完全趋近于完美了……ep10里的Marshall真的性感的没边了，平时傻呵呵，正事上冷静又克制。

还想说，越来越像老友记了，但远不及老友记。

不行了，ep13的LilyMarshall再一次萌到我了🥺‘虽然午饭时间已经过去很久了，但是我爱你。

’‘我对你的爱与日俱增，我爱你。

’我天呢，我请问编剧是不是也讨厌robin，ep20没几句直接就跟助理睡上了，性爱完全成了为剧情为看点的低俗工具，我真服了，robin前面都还好，怎么人设跟巴尼一样越走越崩了。

为什么第四季就开始难看了😇

角色转折成长突破——《老爸老妈的浪漫史第4季》

今天聊聊美剧《老爸老妈的浪漫史第4季》。

片名How I Met Your Mother Season 4 / HIMYM 4 (2008)，别名老爸老妈罗曼史 / 寻妈记。

第四季围绕主角们生活中的关键转折展开。

泰德面临职业选择的困境，巴尼和罗宾的感情纠葛愈发复杂，马修则勇敢地面对屋顶跳跃的挑战。

这些故事在嬉笑间展现角色们对未来的信念，还有他们不断成长的勇气。

第四季的爱情纠葛错综复杂，映射出不同的情感色彩。

角色们的关系变得更加复杂，尤其是泰德、巴尼和罗宾的三角纠葛，还有马修的婚姻生活。

泰德的未来妻子到底是谁？

这个谜团贯穿全剧，引发观众的无尽好奇。

虽然本季没给出答案，但那些时有时无的细微线索让人对接下来的剧情充满期待。

这一季，我们见证了角色们的成长轨迹。

泰德的建筑梦似乎总是触手可及，却又遥不可及。

他从一个迷茫的建筑师，逐渐找到自己的方向。

巴尼从一个典型的花花公子，开始学会了责任和爱。

他对罗宾的真实情感逐渐显现，虽然当罗宾回应他的感情时，巴尼却选择了逃避，回到他熟悉的游戏人间生活中。

罗宾从职业女性转向探索内心世界，她的内心挣扎引人共鸣，从拒绝到接受对巴尼的感情，反映了她对爱情一贯的恐惧与不确定。

马修和马修则从新婚夫妻成长为准备迎接新生命的成熟伴侣。

第四季的最后一集，以一场“信仰飞跃”完美收官。

泰德抛弃了建筑设计，投身教育事业；马修克服了对高空的恐惧，终于登上了梦寐以求的屋顶；巴尼和罗宾也终于勇敢面对了彼此的感情。

一切似乎都很完美，角色们各自在成长路上实现了突破。

泰德的“飞跃”在于他放弃了建筑师的梦想，转而成为大学教师。

这个并不普通的决定反映了他对人生的深刻思考。

他意识到，与其固守一个不适合自己的职业，不如投身于真正能发挥自己才华的领域。

这种转变也暗示着他即将遇见自己的“真命天女”。

马修的“飞跃”在于战胜了多年的恐高症，终于跳上了对面屋顶。

这个看似不可能的挑战，象征着他勇于自我突破，敢于走出舒适区，面对恐惧，最终获得了成长与快乐。

巴尼和罗宾的“飞跃”在于勇敢面对彼此的感情，虽然最终没能在一起，但他们的勇气依然值得钦佩。

他们不再掩饰自己的真实想法，而是选择了坦诚相对，即使这意味着可能的拒绝。

爱情中成长，信仰促飞跃。

By DefayI have been watching How I Met Your Mother recently. I love it so much that I spent an entire weekend watching it non-stop. The show is really hilarious yet full of wisdom. Despite how insane and exaggerate the stories the narrator tells are, he really tries to teach some lessons here.An interesting thing that I have to mention about this show is that at first I think Barney Stinson stinks, but gradually I fell in love with this character. Okay, "fall in love" might be too strong a word but it's true that Barney Stinson, the character along with the actor who plays it, is becoming my new favorite. I myself felt very confused sometimes, as Barney is not supposed to be liked by so many people, especially by me. He is a total liar and playboy who does not care about other people's feelings. He is conceited and selfish, greedy and arrogant. And above all, he is frivolous.Yet I was deeply touched by Barney three times by the end of season 4.The first time was when Marshall and Lily break their engagement, Barney lures women away from Marshall so that he can remain faithful to the woman he truly loves. It is later revealed by Lily that it was Barney who convinced Lily to come back to New York, even buying her a plane ticket home.The second time was when Barney was secretly in love with Robin, he acted like a baby. He did everything he could to help Robin, especially that time when Robin accidently quit her job and might be expelled from USA. Barney wants Robin to be around him so much that he helped Robin to make a video tape as a resume to find jobs. Later during video shooting Robin was irritated by his ideas and he finished her e-resume alone by himself. Eventually he succeeded in finding Robin a job and kept her in the group.The third time was when he heard that Ted was hit by a car and was in hospital. He did not hesitate even for a second and rushed to hospital. When he found he could not get a cab, he ran on foot to hospital. Just as he was a street-across away from the hospital, he was too tired and did not notice a fast-driving bus that he himself was hit by it and badly injured.See why they still hang out with him? Everyone in the gang owes to Barney.Put aside his personal life, Barney does have very special and sparkling aspects in his personality that are so rare and precious that it is very hard to find them in a human being.First of all, he is rational. Recall that he is always keen to experiment on all kinds of tricks to hit on girls to test which ones of them actually work. No matter how many times he fails, he just keeps on trying till he reached a scientific statistical conclusion. That's right. 83%. That number applies to everything.Secondly of all, he challenges himself all the time. "Challenge accepted" even if for most of the time, nobody challenges him. He just enjoys it, setting goals, thinking up strategies, taking actions, and eventually, achieving goals, which is closely related to another big merit of his, persistence.Third of all, he is persistent. Recall that once he raised his right hand to high five but nobody responded him. He raised his hand till someone slapped him five. Barney is so driven to succeed, he will do whatever it takes to get what he wants, including lie, cheat or bribe his friends. If he's trying to get a hot girl, he might even pretend to be an astronaut or a taxi driver. Barney will talk trash, or even tell the truth if that's what it takes. He always gets what he wants. You have to admire drive and determination like that.Fourth of all, he is audacious and passionate. We always see him running to do things. He never hesitates. When he wants to do something, he does it, immediately, or over a shockingly long period of time, secretly plotting. Of course, we should exclude the circumstances when he was deeply in love with Robin, which weakened his ability to make resolute decisions. His love for Robin actually completes him as a human being. We can see him as vulnerable, soft and caring as any man in love can be. We can see he has a breakable heart just like everybody else.Fifth of all, we know that he is confident for sure, but sometimes he is peculiarly calm. Once, a big merger in the company Barney works in fell through and Barney was getting blamed for it. Marshall overheard that Barney might be fired. Everyone is worried except himself. Or at least he acted like he is not worried at all. He launched his project of "Perfect Week", e.g., sleeping with seven women in seven days without a single rejection, to deal with the stress. On the next Monday, Barney keeps his job. And his boss says it must have been a stressful time for him. "I barely slept," Barney winked.Last but not least, he keeps rules. Despite the crazy and maniac ideas and actions, Barney keeps rules, except those rules are written by no man but himself. Still, he lives to it, devotedly. His Crazy/Hot Scale, Platinum Rule and Lemon Law are just a few of his dating guidelines. He has rules to govern his professional life. (Actually doing things gets you fired.) He updated the definition of cheating. (It's not cheating if you're not married, if the girl has two consecutive vowels in her name or if she lives in a different area code.) But his rules governing bro-to-bro relationships were so important he published them in a book called "The Bro Code."Just think of having a friend like him around you. You can laugh at him every day because he is mentally strong enough to keep your unintentionally hurtful words from actually hurting him. Yet he brings you all these novel and original stories and ideas and other things that you've never heard of every day, to share with you or to brag about. He urges you to do crazy things you've never done in your entire life. It's so not boring when you are with him. Suit up! Phone five! It's gonna be Legen-wait for it-dary! I'm awesome! There are so many amazing and amusing or even annoying things he talks about. If you don't hear him say for one day, you will even feel something is missing in your life.I think the most important reason is that, even though Barney is a playboy, he only hits on bimbos. And only bimbos buy into his lies and acts. Girls clever as Robin or Nora would not be easily seduced to his moves. He knows it and he tried even harder to prove to everyone that when Barney Stinson is not a jackass, he could really be a dreamy boyfriend that every woman would want. He is always handsome, wears a suit every day, even in his sleep (he wears a suit-jamas at bedtime) and he is clever and wealthy. Nothing can stop him.BTW, the actor who plays Barney Stinson is actually gay. Heart-broken, huh? Still, I admire his exquisite acting skills, as well as his magic tricks, acrobatics and singing performances.
