* When Robin considers moving back to Canada and Marshall tells her that the group love her and would come to Canada after her - it would be an adorable speech coming from any of the other three, but it seems especially heartwarming coming from Marshall; he has relatively the least close relationship with her, but still obviously adores her.

** Let's also not forget when [[spoiler: Barney flew all the way to San Francisco after Marshall and Lily broke up after the first season and convinced Lily to come back and that she and Marshall belonged together, bought her a plane ticket home and swore her to secrecy about the whole thing. That moment showed that [[JerkassFacade Barney really does care for his friends]]. ]]
** And of course when Barney marries Lily and Marshall. "Barney, slow down!" "I CAN'T."
* Marshall and Lily's realising they don't have their vows, and instead just adorably listing the reasons they love each other, from "You make me happy, all the time," to "You made an egg dish and named it after me."
* Ted made it ''rain'' for Robin. [[spoiler:Sure, it just prolonged the inevitability of their break-up, but come on.]]
** And of course the perfect end to a relationship: "You stole a blue French horn for me." "I would have stolen you a whole orchestra."
*** Could also count as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome.
* When Ted decided ''not'' to confront [[spoiler: Stella after she goes back to Tony]], and to be happy for her instead.
** And then in "Fast As She Can" when Ted is in [[spoiler: Stella's car]] and is honest about how badly he wants to find his true love, she returns the favor by giving him reassurance to go on.
* The look at the end of 'The Leap', between [[spoiler: Barney and Robin.]]
* The very end of ''The Leap'':
--> '''Future Ted''': That was the year I got [[spoiler:left at the altar]]. It was the year I got [[spoiler: knocked out by a crazy bartender]]. The year I [[spoiler: got fired]]. The year I got beat up by [[spoiler:a goat. A girl goat at that!]] And dammit if it wasn't the best year of my life! (''Present Ted [[spoiler: finally jumps]]'') Because if any one of those things hadn't happened I never would've ended up in what turned out to be [[spoiler:the best job I ever had]]. (''flashforward to Present Ted [[spoiler:teaching at Columbia University]]'') But more importantly? I wouldn't have [[spoiler:met your mother]]. Because, as you know, she was [[spoiler: in that class]]. Of course, that story's only just beginning!
* The final 5 minutes of Sandcastles In The Sand, especially this part:
--> '''Future Ted''': And so they watched it again... and again... and again. They watched it over and over that night, until '''finally'''... they stopped watching. (''[[spoiler:Barney and Robin start kissing]]'')
* In the episode ''Miracles'', Barney left a business meeting and ''ran all the way to the hospital'' because [[spoiler: Ted was hurt.]] It's even more touching when you take into account the fact that the two were supposed to be [[spoiler: done with their friendship.]] And after Barney [[spoiler: gets hit by the bus,]] they finally make up.
--> '''Barney''': [[spoiler:Ted?... can we be friends again?]]
*** And then the hug between the three guys.
--> '''Marshall''': (''tearing up'') We're all brothers!
--> '''Barney''': Yeah, but I'm your best brother, right?
*That look of longing Barney gives Robin at the end of "Miracles," the season 3 finale. Marshall and Lily ask Barney what he'd seen flash before his eyes during his life-or-death moment, they jokingly suggest boobs, scotch, money, suits, and boobs wearing a suit of money and lactating scotch. Barney watches Robin laugh, and nobody sees.
* [[JerkassFacade "I'm gonna be an uncle?"]]
* Ted being as great as anyone can be when their best friend starts dating their ex. Not only he's totally okay with it, he wants to make sure Barney and Robin stay together:
---> '''Ted''': Barney, I'm only gonna say this
*[[[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQs5B_VMuDg The two-minute date]].
* ''Slapsgiving 2: Revenge of the Slap'': [[spoiler:Lily]] making up with [[spoiler:her father]].
** And Maggie Wilkes, from the following episode.
* Barney [[spoiler: stopping Robin from being deported by landing her a job.]] Could also count as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome.
* The end of ''Of Course''. So. Much. D'awwwww.
* From the episode ''Showdown'': "Congratulations on thirty-five wonderful years hosting {{The Price is Right}}."
* In the season five finale, Barney pretending to be a doppelganger of himself so Marshall and Lily would start trying to have kids (ItMakesSenseInContext), as well and Marshall and Lily's obvious gratitude and appreciation for his gesture, complete with a mention that [[FanPreferredCouple Barney still loves Robin]]. If Barney's not their kid's godfather it'll be an injustice.
--> '''Lily''': I think I know what happened. Yesterday Barney thought he had to say goodbye to someone he truly loves. And it got him thinking, maybe it wouldn't be the worst thing if a baby joined our little group.
--> '''Not!Doppelganger Barney''': Babies... can be cute.
--> '''Lily''': And someday, he's gonna make the best uncle in the world. Because this Barney? He's family to us. ''(Lily puts her arm around his shoulders and kisses him on the cheek. Barney smiles. [[MoodWhiplash Marshall tips him.]])''
**[[FridgeBrilliance The tipping part is going along with Barney.]]
* Barney's [[spoiler: love for Robin]] throughout Season 4, but most notably this explanation in Do I Know You:
-->'''Barney''': [[spoiler: Whoa whoa whoa, hold up. Boyfriend? I don't want to be Robin's ''boyfriend.'']]
-->'''Lily''': [[spoiler: What '''do''' you want, then?]]
-->'''Barney''': [[spoiler: I don't ''know!'' I just wanna be ''with'' her, all the '''time.''' I wanna hear about her ''day'' and tell her about ''mine''... I wanna... hold her ''hand'', and... smell her hair..."]]
** and this one in Mosbius Designs:
--->'''Barney''': [[spoiler: Let's be clear. I'm not in '''love''' with her, I just... miss her when she's not around, I think about her all the time, and I imagine us one day running toward each other in slow motion and I'm wearing a brown suede vest.]]
