Swarley!

Central Perk type coffee shop

It’s back! This weeks episode, “Swarley”, is my new favorite episode this season. While the other episodes have been funny this one made me laugh the most.

This weeks episode start with Barney, Marshall, and Ted sitting around in a coffee shop that looks very similar to Central Perk from Friends. After sitting in silence for a few minutes Barney exlaims: “Thats it, hanging in a coffee place is not as cool as a bar.” While it might not be as cool it is the birthplace of the episode’s running gag. The barista, who Marshall later asks out, labels Barney’s coffee “Swarley.” His reaction is priceless.

“Mine says ‘Swarley’ how’d they get Swarley from Barney? It’s not even a name. Who would ever be called Swarley? … Oh please don’t start calling me Swarley. … This would never happen at a bar!”

The rest of the show, the whole gang calls Barney Swarley or some variation. It made me laugh every time.

From there, Marshall asks out the barista, but we come to find she’s got “the crazy eyes.” Barney and Ted inform Marshall that his new girl has the crazy eyes. Which is apparently a well know medical condition that shows future craziness in a woman’s eyes. Girls I guess have one for guys that is similar called “jerk nails.” The crazy eyes bit is the basis for the rest of the episode.

Below are some of my favorite scenes:

  • Barney: “What in the world would make you believe that is a true story?”
    Marshall: “She’s really hot!”
  • “Haha, now I’m a woman. I love it” - Barney
