Some moo shu pork sauce got away [shot of food spilled, then shot of stained couch]
Flipped the cushion
Now everything's okay. [Marshall sits next to the clean side of the cushion, a finger to his lips.]

Ted looks at his e-mail with a "huh," expression on his face as we roll to the next one.

Cat-sitting for Lily's mom. [Marshall and mom snuggle the cat.]
It's gonna be fun. [Marshall dangles a chew toy from a string tied to a stick.]
It's gonna bring us all closer together. [He waves the toy too close to the open window and the cat dives out. Shot of Marshall looking horrified.]

Ted stops chewing his food as he opens the next email.
