"Bodyguard: Yeah. Sorry, guys. Look, if it was just you two, you can go in right now. But we got nothing but girls in there. People are gonna start thinking it's a lesbian bar.
Barney: Would you excuse us for a minute? (To Ted) Ted I'm going to be hones. I was full of it with that whole Nostradamus thing.
Ted: No! (sarcastic)
Barney: But I'm starting to think there is some serious planetary cr*p going on here tonight. Never in the history of New York City nightclubs has there been a shortage of dudes. Now even during the great dude shortage of 1883. We've got to ditch these girls. (The ones accompanying them)"
