[Robin has reservations about Ted and Stella's wedding, and Ted is not pleased]

Ted:
We broke up over a year ago.

Robin:
Yeah, but that's not that long ago. Watching you marry another woman isn't exactly something I was looking forward to. I don't know, if I would change my mind about marriage and kids, it was nice to know that you were there.

Ted:
So I was your safety school. How flattering.

Robin:
That's not it. It's just that, I..

Ted:
Why are you bringing any of this up? There's nothing between us anymore.

Robin:
Well maybe there is! I mean, of course, there is, that kind of stuff just doesn't disappear without a trace. I'm not just another guest here, Ted.

Ted:
Great. We used to date, but we've both moved on and look, we got what we wanted. I'm getting married, you got your dream job in Tokyo, and we live happily ever-

Robin:
I quit my job.

Ted:
What?

Robin:
I'm moving back to New York. I thought I wanted that job, but I want to come back to my real life, and I think you should go back to yours.

Ted:
What does that supposed to mean?

Robin:
Don't get married. Look you're rushing into this, it's like you're trying to skip ahead to the end of the book. Ted, you're the most romantic guy I know; you stole a blue French horn for me, you tried to make it rain-

Ted:
I did make it rain.

Robin:
It was a coincidence, but after all that, this is how your great romantic quest comes to an end? You're just disappearing into someone else's wedding, someone else's house, someone else's life without a second thought. That's not the amazing ending that you deserve. That's not Ted Mosby.

Ted:
[after long pause] I love Stella, she's the one. You really feel that way, I guess it's a good thing you're not coming to the wedding after all. [storms out]
