This episode mostly centres around Barney as he and the gang help out his mum prepare to move out of his childhood home. His brother James (Wayne Brady) also makes an appearance. As they begin to pack, Barney uncovers a letter with a picture of him and James with an inscription at the back saying "Your Son". After years of Loretta (Barney and James' mother) hiding who their fathers are, James immediately decides to go to whom this letter was addressed to. It becomes an emotional journey for both the brothers as James finally meets who his real father is, Sam (guest star Ben Vereen), and also Barney... who finally comes to terms that Bob Barker is not his father, but later is oblivious to the fact the this African American man is not his father. Although Loretta speaks to Barney and passes a written note of whom his real father is. But will he accept it? Will he finally know who his father is? I'll let you guys know that for yourselves.

Meanwhile, Ted is still looking for 'the one' as Robin sets him up with her 'hot' make-up artist...but oversells his image. Marshall and Lily are still discussing about how they will raise their children - Santa or no Santa? As the concept of the episode is about lies, they debate whether they want their children to grow up knowing about Santa, to which Lily argues that she will not lie to her kids.

Overall, an enjoyable episode and we also get an impromptu performance by Barney with James and Sam.

Recap of the last episode of Season 5!

Doppelgangers

At the beginning of this episode, Marshall is overexcited about having a baby whilst Lily is still having second thoughts, they eventually reach a compromise that they will start trying to have a baby when they see the last doppelganger - Barney. Soon enough they see Barneys doppelganger driving a taxi cab but later find out its only another one of Barneys many pick up tactics, he picks up women from the UN headquarters in order to complete his aim of sleeping with one woman from every planet.

Meanwhile, Robin is offerred a lead anchor job at a rival station but turns it down in order to stay with Don as the job was in Chicago. This is the first time throughout the series that Robin puts her love life before her job (remember when Robin and Ted are supposed to go to a wedding together but she ditches him for work and then he meets Victoria.) 

Barney is also struggling with the idea of a baby being part of the group but once he hears of Robin's potential departure he realises that it might not be such a negative thing and tries to become the fourth doppelganger by dressing up as an Estonian street performer. Marshall and Lily see through his charade and assure him that he will still be a part of their family. 

Upon rejecting her job offer Robin is told by Don that he received and accepted (wth! :O) job in Chicago. They break up and Robin moves back into Ted's apartment. Ted and Robin nearly make out but its clear to both them and the viewers that whatever they may have previously had is now gone and that they are the best of friends.

Four months later, Lily sees a street vendor selling pretzels who she believes is Barney's Doppelganger however when she calls the rest of the gang to see him they see no resemblence. Just about as Barney's about to say something Marshall stops him. It is clear to them now that Lily wants to have a baby :)

Marshall and Lily end up back together and Elope to Atlantic City only to get "unmarried" 12 seconds later so Marshalls family can be present.

The much anticipated new season of How I Met Your Mother is finally here! The writers did not wait for anything to make their viewers intrigued as the opening scene begins at a Church with Ted dressed in a three piece suit! His wedding perhaps? Hmm interesting.

Without giving too much away, Lily is having problems with Marshall's 'over-excitement' about starting a family, Robin is looking a little worse for wear in the first half as she try's to cope with her break-up with Don, Ted spots out a girl at the bar until Barney calls dibs. But he later finds out that she is meeting up with Cindy (the girl that he previously dated, played by Rachel Bilson). Could she be the mysterious room-mate?

Like every How I Met Your Mother episodes, this has alot of hilarious punchlines, and also some twists at the end. From a viewers perspective, I think that each character had their fair share of screen time but a prominant focus of Lily and Marshall. Also something is telling me that the Barney and Robin tandem is going to make a comeback. But oh well, we will just have to wait and see! I've got a feeling that this season is going to be legend-I hope you're not lactose intolerant cos the next part is-dary! :)

How I Met Your Mother Season 6!

So, according to HIMYM CBS twitter account, How I Met Your Mother Season 6 will air on the 20th of September 2010! It won't be shown on local Australian television for a while so we just have to wait for channel 7 to give us the heads up.

Remember the final episode of season 5 called Doppelganger where Marshall & Lily make a deal to try to conceive when they see the final doppelganger, doppelganger Barney? Well, my guess is that Lily is going to have trouble conceiving.. dun dun dun. It'll probably be done to extend the plot line. But yes, that's just my two cents :)

But, check out the HIMYM CBS twitter at http://twitter.com/himym_cbs for more updates on this awesome show!
