"Knight Vision" is the sixth episode of the ninth season of the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother, and the 190th episode overall.

Plot

On Friday at 9:00 PM, 45 hours before the wedding, the gang (minus Marshall) begin the wedding weekend officially with drinks as Barney and Robin remind Ted that he has the chance to hook up with one of the single women who'll be attending that evening. Barney compares the choice with the one made at the end of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade when Indy had to choose which of the cups was the Holy Grail and the wrong choice could mean Ted will have a miserable weekend. Barney and Robin present Ted with three choices: Sophia, Cassie, and Grace (who won't arrive until later). Although Barney suggests Sophia, Ted goes for Cassie when she arrives and mentions the two will probably have 'fun' that weekend.

When Lily meets the wedding's officiant, Reverend Lowell, she tells him the story of how she met Marshall, which causes him to angrily leave. Barney and Robin admit to Lily that they had stolen Lily and Marshall's story when they learned that Lowell would disapprove of the story of how they actually met and turn down the request for him to marry them. Though they manage to deceive Lowell again when they discover that Lowell believes that Lily is lying, Lowell realizes they are lying when they become indignant at Lily's insulting descriptions when Lily uses the story of how Barney and Robin really met as the basis of the "real" story of how she met Marshall. Robin and Barney beg him to marry them anyway, but he steadfastly refuses and tells them to leave the church. Barney admits they shouldn't have lied as he loves the story of how he and Robin got together and briefly touch on their sordid histories, only to find out a couple of minutes later that Lowell has died in his chair. This leaves them free to marry in the church, but without a minister.

Though Ted and Cassie seem to hit it off well, Ted's weekend plans quickly begin to derail with each choice he makes (emphasized by the appearance of the Knight from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade each time). Cassie becomes despondent and dependent on Ted when she learns that she has lost her job, where she was hated by everyone, her ex-boyfriend is also a guest at the wedding and has hooked up with Sophia, and her parents unsympathetically leave Ted to comfort Cassie after he meets them. When their attempts to become intimate become increasingly unlikely, Cassie graciously allows Ted to leave her so he can still enjoy his weekend. However, everyone already believes that he and Cassie are a couple; when Grace finally arrives, Ted's last attempt to find another date is ruined when he proposes a toast in memory of Reverend Lowell, only to discover that he was Cassie's uncle. Ted excuses himself and says goodbye to Grace as he is forced to spend the rest of the night comforting Cassie. Future Ted notes that all he did that night was choose poorly, so he didn't hook up with anyone that weekend. However, he now knows that if he had, he probably would never have met his wife and remarks that perhaps he had chosen wisely in the long-run.

During their long drive to Farhampton, Marshall tells Daphne of how he needs to be tough and convince Lily to give up her dream job in Italy so he can remain in New York and be a judge. Daphne tries to coach Marshall through the conversation and ensuing argument he is bound to have with Lily, but keeps forcing him to start over. When Daphne learns that Marshall has already taken the job, she chews him out for not considering his wife's wishes or her dream, telling him that her husband was the same in regards to her career. When Marshall asks what her job is, he is furious to learn that she is a lobbyist for a big oil company and believes that Daphne wants him to refuse the job because he is an environmentalist. Marshall later apologizes for yelling at Daphne and agrees that he needs to be fair with Lily and not tough. Daphne accepts and apologizes, as she was so angry with Marshall, she sent Lily a text message telling her about Marshall's new job and how he's already taken it. Marshall is horrified, as his phone begins to ring.

Critical reception

The A.V. Club's Donna Bowman graded the episode an A−. She states that the Indiana Jones elements and Ted's reaction to the Knight's appearances were enough for the episode, but the Barney–Robin story is another good example of the actors' chemistry.[1]

Max Nicholson of IGN gave the episode a 6.4/10 rating saying it "found a few funny moments in a sea of predictable narrative.".[2] HitFix's Alan Sepinwall echoed Nicholson's thoughts, adding that the episode was not that much of a departure from the eighth season premiere "Farhampton".[3]

The Huffington Posts Jessica Goodman stated the episode "solidified" the waiting game that the season may have embodied with the previous episode.[4]
