On last night's episode of How I Met Your Mother, Ted got the phone number of a cute girl, Holli (Rebecca Budig) and immdiately starts showing too much interest in the girl.

In an effort to teach Ted about the three days rule, Barney and Marshall put their number in Holli's place in Ted's phone and pretend to be Holli as they text back and forth.

Find out what these hilarious antic led to in our "The Three Days Rule" recap.

Now for some of our favorite How I Met Your Mother quotes from the episode:

Barney: You can't call her, you have to wait three days to call a woman. That's the rule!
Ted: Barney, that rule is completely played out. Girls know exactly what you're doing. Hey I got a new rule, it's kind of crazy, it's called you like her, you call her
Barney: I'm sorry, can you repeat that? I don't speak "I never get laid" | permalink

Barney: Nice! Girls whose names end in LY are always dirty: Holly, Kelly, Karly... Lily.
Marshall: Hey! Oh, yeah, I know it's true | permalink
