Barney wore a suit in this episode even though in a previous episode he says he doesn't wear a suit for funerals. it just shows how respectful he was trying to be for Marshal
@@katocs because Marshal is one of his best friends, it's like how when Lily and Marshal broke up Barney went out of his way to go all the way to san fransico to bring Lily back
How accurate that they just stand there not knowing what to say. Edit: This hits home alot more than it did before as my father passed a couple months ago. And my last words to him were not kind. Unfortunately I didn't have a voicemail like Marshall did.
You probably dont give a shit but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I was dumb forgot the account password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Hudson Emory i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
To me “he’s never gonna get to meet our kids Lilly” was the most powerful line in his monologue. He says it so matter of factly with a tinge of sadness and anger in his voice as he attempts to explain the magnitude of the situation to them.
I'm so glad that when Marshall says his dad was his best friend the writers didn't ruin it by Barney saying something about him being his best friend... He just stays speechles. I cry every single time :(
I think Barney is very important here because he says the line about him being his best friend and it cuts to Barney and I think they did this because Barney never knew his father so hearing this from someone so close to their father must have shook him
Neil's acting. I swear to god his face alone in this entire scene could break your heart. The fact that he can't even touch marshall like he's still recovering from the shock of hearing his dad actually speak on the voicemail. Wow.
I know everyone is focused on Marshall and Barney in this scene. But Lily’s body language really drives it. She wants to hold him out of natural reaction. But doesn’t so he can grieve.
That’s the look of someone who so desperately wants to help the person they love most in the world but knows there nothing they can say to make this awful situation any better. All she can do is let him grieve and it’s killing her. Alysons and Jason’s chemistry really formed the heart of the show.
Im always so touched and impressed of Neils acting in this scene. Barney was almost never serious, but here.. wow! The sadness and compassion and humility in his eyes and body language is stunning.
I think what sells this scene so well are two things: Marshall's rant, seeing how he is usually so jolly and positive about everything Also, how catatonic Barney looks the entire time. Totally unlike him, always have something to try to get the mood up or pump some energy into the group
The Mexican Animator Barney, out of pure devotion and respect to Marshall, wore a suit to a funeral and he says that funerals are the one time where he dresses down, even shown at one point in a previous episode at some other random funeral.
Given the story arc Barney was about to get following this episode, he is probably wondering to himself, "If Marshall is this broken & lost over his father, maybe it is time I learned the truth about mine."
I lost my dad 4 days after he turned 61 to cancer. He was young and healthy and tall, until he wasn't. This was 5yrs ago. Im about to graduate with my 2nd degree and i had to write a letter to him detailing all that he's missed. It breaks me every day.
It felt weird giving this a thumbs up. Lost my Dad too. 7 years ago. I talked to him on the phone for a while that night while I was putting the kids to bed. Let them tell him good night. He passed away in his sleep that night. So the phone message in this really got me.
Barney's face at 1:49 breaks my heart every-time. Watching someone you care deeply about go through gut wrenching pain and there's nothing you can do or say that will change it.
I’ve said before Lily’s body language as subtle as it is drives this scene. She out of natural reaction wants to console Marshall. But just let’s him grieve
@@loki4president620 Barney's better off, though. I mean, I don't really remember, but I'm thinking he was inspired to patch things up with his own father. He had/has that chance, I dunno.
The face Marshal makes when he says “he’ll never meet our kids Lilly 😕” absolutely shattered my heart. It didn’t feel like anger, or even sadness just defeat. Now I’m sitting in my car crying
Barney, out of pure devotion and respect to Marshall, wore a suit to a funeral and he says that funerals are the one time where he dresses down, even shown at one point in a previous episode at some other random funeral
Jason, Neil and Alysson are amazing actors. They nailed the expressions, emotions and dialogue in this scene. It is scenes like this that make HIMYM one of my favourite ever shows...
Honestly marshals outburst of emotion is how I felt and still feel when I lost my grandpa my hero teacher and best friend this scene hits so close to home I tear up every time I see it at least in marshals case he had a voicemail of his dad to remember his voice and love.
Man I was binge watching HIMYM and when I reached the episode where Lily broke the news, I had to literally take a 5 minute breather because of how hard it hits. Jason totally nailed this 2 episodes and it's nothing short of AMAZING acting from him.Props to him man.
I found an old voicemail from my friend who died last year that made me sob. It was just her being herself and saying she loved me. I feel that in this scene.
Ryan Glogowski no the saddest is when Barney confronts his father and is angry at him because he’s not cool, cause “if he was gonna be lame suburban dad, why couldn’t he have been that for him”
I lost my mom last year. Gone way too soon and so unexpected, but I’m thankful that my last talk with her was a pleasant one and I do have a message to remember her by. Can only hope others be so lucky.
When my dad passed away I always think back to Marshall and his dad. & these small scenes that are so realistic. Their relationship, how it came and left too soon... when Lily breaks the news, and then I like how there's a later episode where he starts grilling in order to continue a legacy his dad started. I can just relate to it all. Even the part of his friends unfortunately not having the same type of my father i had. My own friends came and cried at his funeral as they knew him so well as well.
Lost my grandpa January 8th this year. Me, my brother, and my dad just got t-boned. So while we were in pain we got a phone call that my grandpa had his plug pulled and it would only be a matter of time. My dad just sat there. Didnt say a word. He got another call about ten minutes later and he walked outside. I knew instantly. I have never seen my dad so defeated. I was crying for him. But when Marshal said he’ll never get to meet our kids... god, it just hit me that my grandpa will never get to see my sisters, mine, or my brothers kids. It made me realize I never greaved for my grandpa until just now. So thank you. Its a bit morbid I guess but it helped so much.
I had 1 voicemail from my dad. He called me the day before he passed. He had just bought his first "smart phone" and was having trouble using it. He left a funny message cussing the phone. I kept that message for over a year. Then one month I forgot to listen to it and resale it (back then you had to read your voicemail messages in order to retain them). When I realized it was gone. I was devastated. I Miss You Dad.
This scene alone proves this show was not just a sitcom. The writers struck gold with this storyline, and these actors knocked their roles out of the park. Barney’s face when he says it’s a pocket dial, lily’s heart breaking, and of course Marshall’s delivery. One of the most gut wrenching scenes I’ve ever watched.
My grandpa died last night and I just found out the last words him and my dad shared were "I love you." and "I love you too." So obviously I had to look this scene up and now I'm balling my eyes out.
This scene breaks me every time! I didn’t get a chance to say goodbye to my dad when he was hospitalised with COVID & that’s something which will remain with me for the rest of my life! Go well, dad! ❤️😞
I haven't lost my dad but I lost a great man in my life who was like another father to me and watching this made me feel everything marshall said it's tough having to let go of someone who had been in your life since the day you were born taken so young and without knowing it was his last day here. Knowing he'll never get to see the person I will become knowing he'll never get to see my future kids grow. But I'll always love him for the light he gave me and my family and for the childhood he gave me and my brother's, even when my parents struggled so much to do that, always will remember the best moments with him
This scene broke me and brought me up again in a very short span of time. Just goes to show why this series will remain one of my favorites for a long time to come.
This scene messes me up, i was busy for 3 days so I didn't have time to see my dad at the hospital. Had to pass inspection since that's what he wanted me to do and pushed me towards it. The day before he passed i got his call, we didn't have any deep conversation just a dealing with an internet provider and that was it, but i was glad that the last thing i said to my father was. "Bye dad, i love you."
I think it hit hard for Barney because while Marshall was describing how his father was, loving, supportive, encouraging maybe in that second Barney had wished his own father had been that way and gosh darn it Barney so deserved it
I had that feeling my father passed away when I was 17 and from time to time I think. He'll never get to see my family, never meet my wife. Never see how much I've grown. Its a painful feeling but there's nothing more you can do. Just be there for the ones who matter.
I love the cut on Barney when Marshall says his dad was his best friend. Because usually Barney would either say he's his best friend or just throw something like this on Ted's face, here he's just silent, he knows he can't beat that.
I wish I got this, this hit really hard after loosing my mom in a similar way. For a second I thought I would get this moment. I was looking through my voicemail for some reason. Then I saw it. It was short but a voice mail from my mom. At this point I really needed it. So I listen and it was a pocket dialed. I waited for something, anything. It ended. Nothing said, just a pocket dial. I wish sometimes the movies were real.
Sorry for your lose mate. That pain will always be there, you learn to live it, but only in time. As Rooter said - And you'll always miss him. But he'll always be with you, as long as you remember the things he taught you. In a way, you'll never be apart, for you are still part of each other.
I always interpreted Marvin’s death as the universe taking its revenge on Marshall for lying to Lily about seeing Barney’s doppelgänger. Once they actually find the real doppelgänger, they still can’t get pregnant, which is what that whole episode is about, but then the universe begins a literal countdown and it doesn’t stop once his dad dies, but it stops once specifically Marshall finds out, finally granting him the ability to be a father… at the cost of his very own. Gave me chills when I put that together on the second (maybe third) viewing of HIMYM.
I lost my father last year 💔 This scene always got me beforehand, but now it hits that much harder. I completely understand how Marshall feels here and I'd kill for a final pocket final from my father..
Love Lily's acting, Neil and Jason are great too. I cried the moment Lily got out of the taxi. It must be hard to tell someone you love the last thing they want to hear. This is heartbreaking, yet part of life that most of us would have to go through.
Having lost my mum about a month ago, this scene is even more emotionally effective to me, especially when Marshall says "And he'll never get to meet our kids, Lily." Fucking hell... I mean, that line in particular almost physically hurts.
This scene truly hit me hard, I lost my mom a month ago due to cancer, she was 60 only, so young and wonderful, she was my best friend, teacher, mother, grandma to my son who is only 19 months old, it truly broke me when he said "he'll never get to see our kids" although my mom did but she will never get to see him grow and speak
as someone that didn't have a father or a father figure in my life, if I ever have kids I hope they think and talk about me like Marshall did about his dad
I wasn't close to my father. He was an angry abusive alcoholic like his father. So this scene doesn't hit me in the way it hits most people. I have kids of my own now and I don't drink or anything. My kids adore me though. Their faces light up when they see me. So when I pass I worry about how it will effect them.
This whole show. I t had a feeling that i cant describe as anything other than being 'real' This scene went beyond that. I missn this this show so much. May (by this point years later) this show, and mashals dad, rest in peace.
My dad died of a sudden ruptured aneurysm on. 10 December 2015 Quick death, little pain, no warnings. One minute he’s fine getting ready for an average boring day, next minute he’s gone. I’ll never see him age, decay, never remember him as anything other that a young fit cool guy. As I watch my grandfather decay through dementia I’m greatful that my father will never suffer such a fate. Like JFK, marlin monroe, James dean and heath ledger, he went in his prime. That’s how I’ll always remember him. No drawn out hospital visits, because he didn’t know about it so he wasn’t afraid of it. He was 46, in his prime, 4 months from seeing his daughter’s wedding, 3 years from his first grandson, 5 years from his first granddaughter. 7 years from his step daughter’s wedding. And worst of all, he was 4 years late for The Irishman, if he did show up in 2019 to see it Al Pacino would look at the camera through the screen and say “you’re late!”
People say shows like this are stupid a d pointless but scenes like this can relate to so many people and means more than you thi k at time randomly seeing this on your feed
Marshall's wife and friends saw Marvin Sr as the good role model of father since Marshall always praised him unlike their father, Ted's father can hold forever commitment with his mom(divorced), Robin Sr always look down Robin because her gender, Lily's father always make stupid things (like bet) and Barney never know his father until he found out Jerome is his dad.
This scene always gets me because I can totalt relate to looking up to my father. Fortunately I still have mine, but the thought of him being gone honestly scares me a bit.
I just lost my grandma and its so acurate how you react when you find some not listen audio (in my caise ) a whats app audio and its amazing, its like she comes one more time to talk with you and say love you

@Patronus88 Why, what does Barney has to do with the cheating thing?
Patronus88 Ah yes, you're right
Andreas Roman or it could be because Barney didn’t have a dad growing up.
Mr AR because he didn’t know his dad and knows how it feels to be cheated out of one
Lyndsey Newman notice that he doesn’t even object when marshall says his father was his best friend
How accurate that they just stand there not knowing what to say.

"How is this fair?" The way he delivers that line. Damn
Ethan James ikr
To me “he’s never gonna get to meet our kids Lilly” was the most powerful line in his monologue. He says it so matter of factly with a tinge of sadness and anger in his voice as he attempts to explain the magnitude of the situation to them.
That’s exactly how I felt when my Dad passed… I still feel that way… it’s a hole in your heart that can never be filled
I'm so glad that when Marshall says his dad was his best friend the writers didn't ruin it by Barney saying something about him being his best friend... He just stays speechles. I cry every single time :(
I think Barney is very important here because he says the line about him being his best friend and it cuts to Barney and I think they did this because Barney never knew his father so hearing this from someone so close to their father must have shook him
I think Barney would’ve understood the moment and not to interrupt Marshall mourning
I think Barney's reactions are really important as he has never known his own dad proper.
That's why they cut to him
This is definitely my favourite emotional HIMYM scene. They don't say anything to Marshall's angryness, it feels so real.
Neil's acting. I swear to god his face alone in this entire scene could break your heart. The fact that he can't even touch marshall like he's still recovering from the shock of hearing his dad actually speak on the voicemail. Wow.
And he is the only one who stands on the outside when they all go and hug Marshall
I noticed this. May be also, twinned with the fact that he has his own father issues. Neil won this scene too.

I lost my father last month. The depiction of desperation, hatred, hopelessness and love is perfect. Unfortunately perfectly relatable.
Same....
After Jason Neil's acting was the best. Real emotion in his eyes
Sara Khan Jason Segel
Ecko Albino I know. I forgot the comma. I meant after Jason, Neil Patrick Harris's acting was second best.
Also Alyson's expression through this all. She has the 'It hurts that i can't help' face
If I ever need to cry, this is the video i turn to.
When he says “or maybe even a little bit cheated” and they show barney specifically, such good editing.
Barney also felt cheated, like Marshall, but Barney never really had a dad.... it’s a heartbreaking scene

"Your Mom and I had such a great time seeing you, I love you" 😭😭😭
My dad accidentally recorded himself the night he passed. Hes just singing to himself. I miss him so much
saddest scene of the show no hesitation.
the saddest scene was when lily told him the news earlier this scene
This or when robin shakes her head then next scene is barney stuffing rose petals in a trash bag
Ryan Glogowski no the saddest is when Barney confronts his father and is angry at him because he’s not cool, cause “if he was gonna be lame suburban dad, why couldn’t he have been that for him”

Shouldn't been watching on the bus. #manlytears
You're a real New Yorker when you can cry on the subway/bus and not give a damn who sees
This is so realistic. They all just keep silent don't know what to say. They really want to help him, but they can't..
The looks on their faces, like shit you really know they felt that pain as much as he did
And there's a hint of helplessness. Like they want to take all his hurting away but they can't
This scene alone proves this show was not just a sitcom. The writers struck gold with this storyline, and these actors knocked their roles out of the park.

Knowing he'll never get to see the person I will become knowing he'll never get to see my future kids grow. But I'll always love him for the light he gave me and my family and for the childhood he gave me and my brother's, even when my parents struggled so much to do that, always will remember the best moments with him

I lost my father last year 💔 This scene always got me beforehand, but now it hits that much harder. I completely understand how Marshall feels here and I'd kill for a final pocket final from my father..
me too
Might be the best scene of the whole series.
Barney’s face when they hear it is my favorite
Marshall’s face when he hears his dads voice gets me every time
Love Lily's acting, Neil and Jason are great too. I cried the moment Lily got out of the taxi. It must be hard to tell someone you love the last thing they want to hear. This is heartbreaking, yet part of life that most of us would have to go through.
That smile that breaks thru lily's tears when marshals dad finally answers the phone is what gets me the most.
What I love about this scene is that Ted, Robin, Lily and Barney are all there to support Marshall.
Marshall slowly breaking down with relief ans pure grief after hearing his dad say I love you always makes me cry
Bro I can hear Barney saying "yeah he was" with his head tilting when Marshall said "He was my best friend".
one of the best scenes on the show, change my mind
Having lost my mum about a month ago, this scene is even more emotionally effective to me, especially when Marshall says "And he'll never get to meet our kids, Lily." Fucking hell... I mean, that line in particular almost physically hurts.
I've watched this show 10 times all seasons. 7 in English, 3 in German. This scene still makes me cry. Best show ever.
Props to the show runners showing how awkward Barney feels thinking Marshall was just lucky to have had a dad in the firstplace.
I miss my mom so much
This scene truly hit me hard, I lost my mom a month ago due to cancer, she was 60 only, so young and wonderful, she was my best friend, teacher, mother, grandma to my son who is only 19 months old, it truly broke me when he said "he'll never get to see our kids" although my mom did but she will never get to see him grow and speak
as someone that didn't have a father or a father figure in my life, if I ever have kids I hope they think and talk about me like Marshall did about his dad
Lily's face made me cry. This whole scene made me cry.
I wasn't close to my father. He was an angry abusive alcoholic like his father. So this scene doesn't hit me in the way it hits most people.
I have kids of my own now and I don't drink or anything. My kids adore me though. Their faces light up when they see me. So when I pass I worry about how it will effect them.
This whole show. I t had a feeling that i cant describe as anything other than being 'real'
This scene went beyond that. I missn this this show so much. May (by this point years later) this show, and mashals dad, rest in peace.
My dad died of a sudden ruptured aneurysm on. 10 December 2015
Quick death, little pain, no warnings. One minute he’s fine getting ready for an average boring day, next minute he’s gone.
I’ll never see him age, decay, never remember him as anything other that a young fit cool guy.
As I watch my grandfather decay through dementia I’m greatful that my father will never suffer such a fate. Like JFK, marlin monroe, James dean and heath ledger, he went in his prime. That’s how I’ll always remember him.
No drawn out hospital visits, because he didn’t know about it so he wasn’t afraid of it.
He was 46, in his prime, 4 months from seeing his daughter’s wedding, 3 years from his first grandson, 5 years from his first granddaughter. 7 years from his step daughter’s wedding.
And worst of all, he was 4 years late for The Irishman, if he did show up in 2019 to see it Al Pacino would look at the camera through the screen and say “you’re late!”
Deepest condolences my friend. But it's great you have a positive view on it. Take care
People say shows like this are stupid a d pointless but scenes like this can relate to so many people and means more than you thi k at time randomly seeing this on your feed
Him being upset that his dad wont be able to meet their future kids hit different
“He’ll never get to meet our kids Lily” breaks me everytime
Barney's face at 1:03 when Marshall said my dad was my best friend 😭 idk if it was intentional but it looked like it really hit his soul
If you watched HIMYM from start to finish, and you don't cry when you watch this clip, no matter who you are...... something aint right.
This episode was Jason Segals finest moment as an actor
Yup, made me cry when I watched it 😢
My dad was my hero to
Barneys seriousness and marshalls amazing acting rlly pulled this together
Rip Patrick starfish
My dad died at 48 when I was 9. I don’t remember his last words to me. This scene hits hard
Never cried at movies or shows, but this scene and the one with barneys dad def made me shed a slight tear
Marshall's wife and friends saw Marvin Sr as the good role model of father since Marshall always praised him unlike their father, Ted's father can hold forever commitment with his mom(divorced), Robin Sr always look down Robin because her gender, Lily's father always make stupid things (like bet) and Barney never know his father until he found out Jerome is his dad.
This scene always gets me because I can totalt relate to looking up to my father. Fortunately I still have mine, but the thought of him being gone honestly scares me a bit.
I've never watched this show... and this video just put me in my place 😭😭😭😭
I just lost my grandma and its so acurate how you react when you find some not listen audio (in my caise ) a whats app audio and its amazing, its like she comes one more time to talk with you and say love you
Damn I feel him. I feel cheated.
to cry with this every once in a while is a tradition now
Barney's reactions during the whole scene just breaks my heart
