Episode Description
When Marshall picks up smoking again, it prompts Lily, Ted and Barney, ex-smokers all, to succumb as well. Meanwhile, Robin gets a new co-anchor at her show. Don Frank: In his mid to late 30s, in a leather jacket, a seasoned, fairly famous reporter, he is Robin's new co-anchor on "Come On, New York, Get Up," her ridiculously early morning news program. A veteran of cable news, Don took a public stance against his program's biased reports, and now the only place that will hire him is Robin's show. Some sparks fly between him and Robin, and he asks if he can bum a cigarette from her. Her high hopes for career legitimacy are crushed when Don makes it clear that being on her show is a low point for him. He's bitter about the fact that no one's watching, and he doesn't care how his attitude might affect Robin. Recurring. 13-year-old Friends: Seen in flashbacks, they are 13-year-old Marshall's friends, attempting to smoke cigarettes in the woods, and coughing. Mr. Hessler: Marshall's new boss, who doesn't know Marshall's name, he offers Marshall a pivotal third cigarette while hanging out on the roof. Mr. Hessler later survives a heart attack.

Episode Description:
Trying to recapture the glory days of their wild bachelorhood, Ted proposes that he and Marshall take a road trip to their favorite Chicago pizza parlor, but wants in on the trip. Meanwhile, Barney is seeking US citizenship for Robin, but she can't seem to overcome her innate Canadian-ness...

Mrs. Cruikshank: This snooty, extremely proper 50-something woman is the owner operator of Crumpet Manor, a very precious Victorian bed and breakfast where Marshall, Ted and Lily stop during their road trip. She describes the sedate fun that can be had at her establishment, while Ted, who is in the mood for greasy pizzas and strippers, squirms.

Wendy The Curler: This very Canadian woman from an all-star Canadian curling team is partying down in the very Canadian Hoser Hut with her very Canadian teammates. They invite Robin along for a very Canadian spree, swilling Canadian beer and attending a Bryan Adams concert.

Bruno: This disheveled looking goombah works at Gazzola's, a filthy Chicago pizza parlor whose oven hasn't been cleaned in 100 years. He's a bit taken aback by Ted and Marshall's odd behavior, and he doesn't appreciate it when Marshall inadvertently flashes him a partial moon.

Lucy: This quintessentially Canadian counter girl, who works at a donut shop in Toronto, depresses Robin when she assumes that Robin is an American.

Turbaned Man: Barney assumes this Middle Eastern-looking man is foreign, but he's actually from Florida.
