THE ROBIN:
Step 1 - Convince yourself that you still have feelings for this girl.
Step 2 - Choose the completely wrong moment to make a drunken move after hanging out at a strip club… and get shot down, on purpose.
Step 3 - Agree that you two don’t work, locking the door on any future you could have together - Which will drive Robin nuts.
Step 4 - ROBIN GOES NUTS!
Step 5 - Find the person who annoys Robin most in the world and ask for her help. Explain everything to Patrice and hope she agrees to help.
Step 6 - Check with your doctor for possible broken ribs.
Step 7 - Pretend to be dating Patrice.
Step 8 - Wait until Robin inevitably breaks into your place to find the Playbook and show it to Patrice - Which you’ll monitor via the hidden cameras you have in your apartment.
Step 9 - After Patrice finds the Playbook have your first “Big Fight”.
Step 10 - Prove you loyalty to Patrice by burning the Playbook, and actually burn it… You don’t need it any more.
Step 11 - Because you friends have no boundaries, they will inevitably have an ‘Intervention’ for Robin - Which you’ll monitor via the hidden cameras you have in Lilly and Marshall’s apartment.
Step 12 - Tell only Ted about your plan to purpose to Patrice.
Step 13 - Wait and see if Ted tells Robin, and if he does - it means your best Bro in the world has let go of robin and has given you his blessing.
Step 14 - Robin arrives at her favourite spot in the city and finds the secret final page of the Playbook - The Last Play You’ll Ever Run!
Step 15 - Robin realises she’s standing underneath mistletoe.
Step 16 - Hope She Says Yes.
It is not something that develops over time. It is something that happens instantaneously. It courses through you like the water of a river after a storm, filling you and emptying you all at once. You feel it throughout your body, in your hands, in your heart, in your stomach, in your skin…
If you have to think about it, you have not felt it.
