When the power goes out, a hurt Mickey decides to play tricks on Marshall and attempts to prevent him from successfully reaching the basement where the fuse box is located.
The remaining gang, now including Kevin, are forced go to a strip club by Barney, where they encounter Lily's stripper doppelgänger (Alyson Hannigan) again.
As the night progresses, Robin and Kevin play "New Relationship Chicken" (where they always say 'yes' to things to seem more interesting) until they admit they do not like it, and Ted becomes increasingly inebriated and sad.
In the tag scene, Mickey watches "The Widow Rodriguez" work out, only to run off screaming for 911 when she appears to have a heart attack.
[3] Robert Canning of IGN gave a score of 8.5 saying that "Though the episode was light and silly, with its new openings and horror movie camera work, things ended with a soft, human, How I Met Your Mother touch.
