No Pressure (How I Met Your Mother)

In the aftermath of Ted's confession, he reminds Robin that five years ago their thoughts on the future were too different, and they broke up.

After Ted hurriedly helps her pack, she kisses him again before leaving, promising to continue the conversation with him once she gets back.

Then at home, he realizes that they are not going to work out and turns down Robin's consolation that they still have an agreement to get married if they are both single at age 40.

Ted tells Marshall that he is giving up on the idea of being with Robin in any romantic context, and says he is happy about this because he knows he can finally move on from her.

Some time later, as future Ted tells his children that getting closure on his relationship with Robin finally opened the possibility of meeting their mother, Ted walks out of MacLaren's Bar as all the people on the street walk by with yellow umbrellas.

At their house, Lily, convinced that this is the definite end of Ted and Robin, asks Marshall to pay up on their bet.

[4] After being particularly critical of the previous episode, Television Without Pity's Ethan Alter gave "No Pressure" a B, stating that the Ted and Robin storyline was "mercifully brief" but criticised Lily and Marshall for breaking character.
