* JerkassHasAPoint: Sure, it was a bit of a dick move by Barney to imply that Mary is a prostitute (and having so much fun with it), but he was right in saying that Ted acted much more confident on his date with her when he didn't need to wonder about whether or not he'd get to have sex with her.

** Marshall combines this with IronicEcho at the end. When Barney reveals that Mary actually is a paralegal, nobody else laughs, and he says "If you don't laugh, it just seems mean." When Ted gets revenge on Barney by running up his hotel room bill, Marshall throws Barney's line back at him.
