* FriendshipMoment: After seeing how hurt Robin's been due to how much of a jerk he's been acting since their breakup, Barney gives Robin the "superdate" so she can go out with Don. Meanwhile, when Anita shows up at the bar and, incensed that Barney never showed up for their date, tries to seduce him, he promptly walks out of the bar, down to the Hudson River, and ''jumps in''.

* GrandRomanticGesture: Subverted and deconstructed with Ted's idea of a superdate. It gets subverted since the point of it is just for Barney to seduce Anita, not to make a serious relationship with her. Also deconstructed since Robin feels like just another conquest because during the time they dated, she never got such a gesture from him and he's pulling all the stops for Anita, who he just met.
