I love this episode and rewatch it constantly. The best thing? Barney's affection and respect for Robin, which peeps out underneath his snark, his sarcasm and lazy braggadocio. That scene where he comes round the table at MacLaren's and puts an arm round her melts my iron heart. The most important thing about this…

Barney's declaration of love, and his listening to Marshall's advice was beautiful and touching. And his crushing disappointment when Robin ignored his message… Ah, the feels!
