We're almost halfway through the ninth and final season of How I Met Your Mother, and Barney and Robin's wedding weekend has been slowly (and sometimes painfully) chugging along. But instead of the usual recaps and spoilers, we thought we'd take a shot at predicting how the rest of the season will unfold, which led to this question: Is Ted going to ruin the wedding?
I know what you're thinking. Ted would never do that to his best friend. He's too good of a guy. But let's look at the evidence:
1. The recent episode "Platonish" revealed that Ted decided to give things another shot with Robin, but he planned to take his time and not push it. Unfortunately, Barney did, and now the two are getting married. At the end of the episode, Ted looked at the happy couple sadly and filled with regret.
2. In the Season 9 premiere, Future Ted tells his kids that you never know who the wild card will be at a wedding as the camera lingered on Ted for a while. He also went to extreme lengths (flying across the country) to retrieve Robin's lost locket.
3. He pretty much confessed to Lily in the Season 8 finale that he still has feelings for Robin and that he would do anything for her, which is "a really sucky way to feel about your best friend's fiancé."
4. In the flashforward to the Farhampton train station, Ted has a bandage on his hand, his tie is undone and he looks generally disheveled. He also seems pretty down about the whole wedding when he's talking to the old lady on the bench.
5. In all scenes with The Mother (Cristin Milioti), they are alone and Ted never even mentions his friends' names.
So is Ted going to do something drastic at the wedding? My guess is that he launches into a patented Ted Mosby speech during his best man toast and the whole thing unravels.
