Robin states that women would never fly with a man using baby talk, and Barney tries and fails the baby talk play, Robin finds out that Ted finds dependent girls attractive and found Robin's independence and assertiveness off-putting. Robin asks Barney if he felt that he was needed by Robin during their relationship, but he thought her independence was awesome. Robin points out that there is a crazy woman in his apartment — she turns out to have come by Barney as he was indulging himself in ice cream, and responding to her in a childish manner, seduced Barney. Barney asks for Robin's help to get rid of the woman, and the independent Robin grabs Barney's decorative sword and heads into the bedroom.
