How I Met Your Mother Season 7 Music
Part 1
- music from The Legend of Zelda (plays as Marshall talks with the cash machine)

(playing as baby Marvin “wait for it” Erkisen arrives to the world)
Part 2
- The Wind by Cat Stevens (Ted & Victoria drive off into the sunset & closing moments of Season 7)
The Magician’s Code, Part 1
I don’t have a lot to say about this episode. It was awesome to see some focus on Marshall & Lily. In fact this may be the most even episode of the season. Even, in the sense that everyone was involved. What I don’t get is other than the continuation feel of going from one episode to the next, why call it “The Magician’s Code” as well?
I digress. The point of the episode was baby MArvin “Wait For It” Eriksen… that and possibly giving us enough story lines to fill up next season.
Legendary Lines
Robin: Once you see a baby erupt through that canal, you stop even touching yourself…
Lily: I remember that suit, he looked like a little kids imaginary friend.
Robin: That was not cool Ted.
Lily: Contraction!
Robin: That…wasn’t cool Ted?
Old Ted: Kids, sometimes the universe sends you exactly what you act for…other times, it sends you Lily’s dad.
Ted: That head was coming out of your best friend
Moments of Awesomeness
- Marshall talking like Yoda
- the Big Thing?
- lilysinlabor.com
- “wait for it” may in fact be the greatest name ever… but my wife said no.
- lots of great stories to entertain Lily… did they just outline all of Season 8?
- despite not being a huge fan of Lily’s dad, this may have been the best we have seen of Chris Elliott on HIMYM yet.
- Marvin “Wait for it” Eriksen
New Jersey
- Knowing that Barney’s bride was teased so much in the promo, twitter, act…I just want the baby to be born and move on…you knew it would be the last moment of the season. And seriously, baby’s are cute and all but I was over it before it happend. Awesome middle name though.
the ReReturn Moment (despite the fact it was butted up to Part 2)
Marshall goes through the green door to find he had been tricked.
The Magician’s Code Part 2
This finale honestly seemed so intense at moments I had trouble taking notes…so if I missed anything or got it off, just consider that your invitation to fill in the blank. Cool?
Barney. A wedding that that went horribly wrong. That’s what Ted said. So knowing that and seeing who Barney’s bride was/is… is that good or bad news for Robin/Barney fans? And what else do we know about the wedding once we put the pieces together:
- Barney is the groom
- Robin is the Bride
- Ted meets the mother for the first time there
- Barney questions his choice (not just the actual tie)
- Ted says it went horribly wrong
- They probably will have cake…I love cake
Legendary Lines
Marshall: I wonder how much this would hurt
Robin: And you threw it all away for some hot piece of ass
Ted: You mean you
Robin: Aww, Thank you.
Ted: click. photo burn
Marshall: 8 or higher bro
Barney: Last chance to run away together…
Moments of Awesomeness
- Robin dropping relationship knowledge on Ted.
- Overhead camera that zooms in on whoever is being the loudest
- Victoria in a wedding dress
- Marshall’s love of weddings… nice touch.
- While Robin wasn’t as much of a surprise, the Victoria moment came out of nowhere. I love being taken off guard.
- Ted is definitely trying to make the Wedding bride two with this one.
New Jersey
- I reserve the right to talk bad here if in the future I don’t like what happend with Robin & Barney… I trust the show peeps and all but hated the fact that Ted started by saying it was a Wedding that went badly…
Lingering Questions
- Is it good or bad that Robin is the bride?
- How are Barney & Quinn going to fall apart?
- What’s the end game of the Ted & Victoria piece? We know (unless all the clues so far are false) the she isn’t the mother… so what are you thoughts on there this is going?
- Will Season 8 end it? No official word yet but Carter & Craig they won’t keep that a secret once it’s for sure.
You have all summer to catch up… you are welcome here anytime btw!
I would love to see that article if you can find it… but that doesn’t to me explain why Barney is worried about choosing the right tie…
Ok, did I just miss this? Where is Robin living?!
Hey! Stupid question… do you now when the next episodes will start?
Hey! Stupid question: does somebody know when the next season starts?
Nope. The CBS website said that the season finale would reveal Barney’s bride. So, the bride has to be the one getting married to Barney. Whether or not the wedding goes through remains to be seen.
After all they’ve done to build the chemistry between Barney and Quinn, I feel sad knowing that robin will be the bride. But since Ted says that the wedding went horribly wrong, we wouldn’t know if Barney and Robin do actually end up getting married.
The proposal was totally expected, especially when Barney was so reluctant to show the trick. Also, as soon as Barney proposed, it became obvious that the bride would not be Quinn, because thats just how the writers like to surprise us.
However, the real surprise which I totally did not expect was Ted running off with Victoria.
All these have pretty much set up season 8 to be a season full of breakups.
2 weddings simultaneous? 😀
“Thomas has explicitly said that future Ted is an unreliable narrator”.
Just take it all with a grain. The writers have the power to do anything. If they didn’t at this point, they would not be deemed good at what they do.
Enjoy the show!
Shirt guy got replaced with Kevin due to scheduling problems.
And let me just say – these writers are good at what they do! Can’t wait for season 8!!!
Yes, Ted is an unreliable narrator.
But that is just for matters like “The porn tape flew itself into the VCR”, or “Marshall and Lilly jumped down from their flat”, or forgotting the real name of Bla Bla, and the goat incident. Stuffs like that.
If Ted states the mother is met at the wedding, and it turns out to be Victoria, that wouldn’t be unreliable, that would be outright lying.
I do believe we’ll meet the mother at the series finale, hoping that season 8 is the final season.
Cheers.
I completely agree- I hope season 8 is it. As for your response- u guys r probably right, but i disagree slightly. Ted meets the mother at a wedding. Perhaps the wedding has already taken place, OR, he “meets” her at Barney’s wedding, but who’s to say he hasn’t already met her? Not tryin to argue, as this is all in fun, and it should be since its for entertainment purposes. But it wouldn’t be lying, it would just be another way for more twists and turns. Eithe way, Bays and Thomas will do a great job
But yes- Cheers! Like I said, I doubt it will be Victoria. And u guys Are probably right- cant argue that. My point was just that we never know, since the ones with the ink have the power.
Remember, these two are awesome with twists and turns. Whatever happens, it’s nothing any of us are going to be able to predict as far as how it happens. We can speculate all we want, but u know they’ll blind side us!
she has been renting an apt on her own
this September, so about 4 months from now
Here’s to hoping the writers pull off the ultimate plot and make Robin “the Mother”. As a writer, I know there’s a huge temptation to walk through the maze you created rather than take the easy way out (New Character). Untangle the knot! Ro-bin! Ro-bin
It has been confirmed by Thomas that Barney and Robin will get married. Read the scoop 🙂
remember ted the voice said.. your mother is sitting on this class in season 6 if im not mistaken.. so victoria clearly isnt in his class.
remember the long term bet.. and the mother of ted children is.. one of ted student
I think ted says i met your mothers at a wedding. he does not says i met barneys wedding.
Hi guys.
Can anyone id who ted is kissing in this photo? Its supposed to be from the magicians code. But i cant tell who it is? Could this be the first peak we get of the mother?

Its picture 11 of 19…,
What if it was a double wedding. remember they like messing with our heads
ROBIN’S PREGNANT! I’ve just watched this episode again and if you look closely when she turns round at the end, she’s sporting a bit of a baby bump. Seriously, check it out.
it kinda looks like Olivia Wilde…
I want to know what’s the name of the song in the part of the mistery door story… PLEASE…
