How I Met Your Mother Review- "Tick Tick Tick..."

Tick Tick Tick... (7x10)

Directed by Pam Fryman
Written by Chris Harris

One Paragraph Synopsis: After their kiss in the previous episode, Barney and Robin wake up the next morning next to each other. Both feel guilty, but also agree that they still hold a spark together, enough for them to consider telling Nora and Kevin the truth in hopes of clearing their conscience to get back together. Their chance arrives when the four of them are on a boat together, for Sandy River's annual cruise event. What ends up happening is that Barney tells Nora and breaks up with her when her parents arrive, but a surprise announcement from Kevin prompts Robin to not tell him, and to stay with him instead. While this is happening, Marshall and Ted are totally high at a concert, where Lily is also at, sober.

As much as I like the sandwich stuff- and I really do, it's a laugh riot throughout in its silliness- I only really want to write about Robin and Barney's story.

Because as much as I like them together, I don't think Robin was really wrong to stay with Kevin. Kevin may even know, and may just be dodging the truth out of fear. I'll allow this, since she deserves happiness with someone now, and if Kevin can offer this, go him.

Wow, that ending is rough, though. Neil Patrick Harris is great at dramatic moments.
