The Stinsons - S4-E15

Trivia: Barney uses the line "Call me crazy, but child actors were way better back in the 80s." Neil Patrick Harris was a child actor in the 80s, most known for his role in Doogie Howser, M.D. (1989). After reciting his line, a brief clip of the theme song from Doogie Howser plays.

Season 4 generally

Trivia: Mostly in the latter part of the season, Lily and Robin keep covering their bellies, this is due to the real actresses being pregnant at the time, Alyson gave birth in March and Cobie in May.

Trivia: When the gang are in a taxi on their way to one of the burger joints with a green door and a red neon sign, look closely at Cobie Smulders' eyes whilst Barney is talking to Lily about Goliath National Bank - she is almost falling asleep when her character is not meant to be sleepy.

Suggested correction: Depending on the location settings on his laptop, they could be giving a false reading. My laptop shows I'm in Cardiff Wales while in fact I'm nowhere near.

The show was actually filmed on a film set in Los Angeles which is probably why the laptop says Los Angeles as the current location. This most probably slipped past the editing crew.

Questions

Answer: After running the marathon for Marshall with no training, he's allowed to ride the subway for free. While sat on the train, the muscles in his legs start to seize up after the marathon to the point it is painful to move his legs. This is why he can't move them. It's the same reason your body aches after a good session at the gym the day before.

Answer: Barney ran a marathon without any training and over exerted his muscles. While he was able to walk after, later his leg muscles gave out and he couldn't move (or more likely stand). It is not uncommon when one works out too much to be sore the next day, even if they feel okay afterwards. Thus the saying "I'll feel that in the morning."
