<P> At Ted and the Mother's house, Ted re-proposes to the Mother because it has been five years since they got engaged, and says they are getting married the following Thursday . Before the wedding, the gang meets up at MacLaren's, and Marshall announces he is running for the New York State Supreme Court . Barney sees two young women at the bar and approaches them . Lily assumes he will hit on them, but instead sees him scold them for dressing inappropriately, sending them home in a fatherly manner .

While reconciling with the gang, Robin admits to Ted that after initially declining to come, the Mother told her to reconsider . Marshall pays Lily on their bet that Ted and Robin don't end up together . Lily gives a toast praising Ted for all he has been through, and Future Ted narrates how he never stopped loving the Mother for a second, even when she became terminally ill and died in 2024 . </P> <P> Returning the story to May 2013, Ted gets the courage to introduce himself to the bass player, and she invites him underneath her yellow umbrella .

They give Ted their blessings to continue his relationship with her .
