7.8/10. I liked the A-story about Ted really needing a win after what happened with Stella, and Marshall putting pressure on Barney after he turned his back on Ted for the Sven guys. There's a solid friendship that's been developed between Barney and Marshall, and spotlighting their rapport for an episode, in service of Ted, worked well. The Woo Girls bit didn't do as much for me. It's a nice enough bit of exaggerated social scene commentary that the show has fun with, but the twist with Robin joining up and Lily trying to join felt a little forced. At the same time, the idea that each of them was woo-ing because they didn't have enough happiness in their lives is a neat enough idea, but felt like too neat of a resolution for even a fairly slight storyline.
