That episode where Ted Mosby spoiled the name of the Mother in Season 1. #himym

Ted Mosby spoiling HIMYM's plot on the 9th episode of S01. #howimetyourmother #himym #tedmosby #spoilers⚠️ #tracymcconell #howimetyourmotherfans

This one scene just shows how perfect she was. Why does it always hurt

[tommyhickin]

Makes sense that the kids would know her name, its so missable but so obvious when pointed out. Do you think it was planned?

[diwashrai]

Shortest scene yet the best chemistry in TV history.

[ninatunas]

even after years, I still cry watching this scene. Like omg after everything that Ted has been through, he definitely deserves a grand happy ending. And in this sweet, simple and short scene, he gets his grand happy ending. This scene is everything.

[baobeast]

She is just so god damn charming. I really find it such a shame that she didn't break out into much more and bigger TV or movie roles

[Ciscohm]

I'm so glad other caught on. Rewatched the series, third time before the finale, several years ago and I spit my food out when the stripper said Tracey.

[faisalalharbi]

I loved her she was perfect for him one of my favourite tv show but the end is awful only if they kept Barney and Robin together and maybe introduce the mother at session seven and they didn’t kill her later 😢

[yyndsai]

Wow!! That makes absolute sense and I didn't understood it, I guess createrz did think wisely

[timnewton]

The showrunners said as they were writing the episodes that fans kept pointing to this moment on reddit and other forums and that they thought it was a good idea and included it in the final seasons of the show.

[elliethesmasher]

me: awe she’s nice
*dies instantly*
me:oh *so that’s a choice*

[Tontoquienloleation]

I'm still so mad about what they did in the end. Thinking of a good ending for a series like that is difficult, but they managed to creat a perfect ending, and then crushed it into pieces. Why???

[dannystuivenberg]

Wouldn't be surprised if this was purely coincidental after the writers wrote themselves into a corner for ten years

[music_hub]

Fuck dude never realised that till now 😳 that's a cool detail or it's just a coincidence to the writers as well

[davidm]

This all being a story told by Ted where some of the details were known to be fake...maybe that really was how he met her and he was glossing over it for his kids.

[pandaluna]

and yet the kids were shocked to realize Robbin wasnt their mother

[willcc-]

Not really spoiling if we didn’t know what her name was until the final season

[BecomeStemceldonor]

Why did Ted spoil the name of the mother here? It doesn't make sense to me...

[zippy]

That "Tracy" thing means nothing. If your dad told you the story of how he met your mother, and landed on a name that you knew wasn't your mom, your reaction would probably also be "WHAT?"

[LudusAurea]

Does knowing her name somehow matter? Hint it doesn’t

[XoIoRouge]

Do people realize this show is scripted?
