Fans of the show will recall that this episode introduced the enigmatic pineapple, leaving viewers wondering how it ended up in Ted's room. And while the pineapple itself may be a minor detail, it has become a symbol of the show's ability to keep audiences guessing and craving more.

"The Pineapple Incident" may not be considered the show's best offering, but it still delivers plenty of humor and memorable moments. While early Ted's behavior can be a bit irritating, the true magic of How I Met Your Mother lies in the genuine friendship between the characters. With in-jokes, high fives, and a sense of camaraderie, the episode showcases the kind of bond that only longtime friends can share.

In the episode "Come On" of How I Met Your Mother, Ted is determined to keep Robin from going on a camping trip so that they can spend more time together. Meanwhile, Barney seeks the help of an old flame to perform a rain dance, showcasing his devotion and goofiness in a thematic way. However, the real heart of the episode lies with Marshall and Lily, the backbone of the show. As Marshall discovers Lily's interview for a fellowship in San Francisco, their relationship faces real and believable problems amidst their palpable love for each other. The contrast between their struggle and Ted and Robin's romantic victory creates a poignant and bittersweet atmosphere.

One of the most brilliant moments in the entire show occurs in the final scene of "Come On." As an exhilarated Ted finds a crestfallen Marshall, the contrast of triumph and tragedy is striking. Friends comforting each other in the rain, with the fitting accompaniment of "This Modern Love" playing in the background, creates a truly unforgettable juxtaposition. While Ted's scene with Robin may be nice enough, it is Marshall and Lily's kiss in the midst of their fight that truly captures the audience's emotions. Their strong and believable relationship, coupled with the real problems they face, makes their story both heart-wrenching and genuine.

However, not all viewers sympathize with Marshall. Some argue that he didn't deserve the heartbreak he experienced. The episode reveals that Lily's desire to pursue her passion for painting outweighed her desire to marry him, causing their relationship to suffer. To make matters worse, the ultimate irony is that it didn't work out for Lily, and she ended up coming back anyway. This turn of events leaves some viewers feeling that Lily is a hypocrite, causing them to empathize with Marshall even more.

Fans of the show may also recognize Amy Acker, who portrays Penelope in this episode. Acker's familiar face may be attributed to her roles in other popular shows such as "Dollhouse" and "Person of Interest," where she played Dr. Claire Saunders and Root, respectively. Her appearance adds another layer of intrigue to the episode, leaving viewers trying to recall where they have seen her before.

In "Come On," How I Met Your Mother continues to captivate audiences with its mix of romance, comedy, and relatable relationship struggles. Ted's determination, Barney's goofiness, and the emotional rollercoaster of Marshall and Lily's relationship keep viewers engaged and eager to see what happens next.
