The Magician's Code: Part 1 (#7.23)

Warning: Spoilers
The story about Lily and Marshall child being born while Marshall is stuck drunk in Atlantic city and Ted and Robin tell Lily stories to make it easier.

Well the stories were all a fun collection! I liked barney as terminator a lot and they made a great joke with the door which they continued until the last scene.

I loved the middle name of the kid! It is the most awesome middle name! And it was funny how they ended up on the bus with not the right kind of seniors that Barney expected. But it was great how they played an emergency to get Marshall to see his son being born.

And Lily's dad brought some good laughs again. Especially because of how little Lily dealt with him.

As season seven of "How I Met Your Mother" comes to a close, Ted and Robin make up and Lily gives birth.

Plot In A Paragraph: Lily has gone into labor, and Marshall is no where in sight. Ted and Robin try keep her mind on other things by telling her funny stories of their past. One of the longer but simpler stories involves the mysterious door at MacLaren's which one by one each walks through to experience the wonder on the other side. Meanwhile, a drunk Marshall is stranded in Atlantic City with Barney. But if Barney can manage to get Marshall to the hospital in time, his payment is be able to give the baby his middle name.

Its a charming little episode with some nice moments, Barney (as per usual brings the laughs) his 'Terminator Play' is genius, and as for the baby's name, it is brilliant.

I like how they told all those stories via flashbacks. Probably saved a heap of money writing new material
