We Finally Meet How I Met Your Mother's Mother (We Hope!)
After a slew of meaningless episodes, HIMYM dived into the important story arc for rest of the season: finding Ted a wife. Jennifer Morrison's Zoey enters the story, immediately catching Ted's eye. Also: a story of small penises.
Barney gets Ted a job with him at Golliath National Bank, where he's set to build a new sky scraper in Queens. Problem: upon seeing the place, he feels there's too much history to the site and wants off the project. Also: He meets Zooey, an architect-nerd that's beautiful—and signing up people to petition against the rebuilding of the site. Ted has found his perfect match... except that he lies, tells Zooey he's a Vet and signs her petition. Highlights of the two's storyline (and Barney's attempts to mess it all up) below:

The rest of the cast's storyline revolved around Robin's latest flame (who wasn't packing a whole lot down there.) Lily made the mistake of telling Marshall, and ...let's just say he had penis on the brain:
