"Last Words" is the 14th episode of the sixth season of the CBS sitcom ''How I Met Your Mother'' and the 126th episode overall. It aired on January 17, 2011. ==Plot== Everybody goes to St. Cloud, Minnesota, Marshall's hometown, to attend the recently deceased Marvin Eriksen's funeral. Marshall is devastated, while his mother Judy is keeping herself distracted by doing chores (according to Lily, she has not eaten or slept in the last two days). Ted and Barney unsuccessfully try to make Marshall laugh by showing him multiple videos of men getting hit in the groin in odd ways. Meanwhile, Robin amazes the gang, as well as other people at the funeral, by providing them with virtually everything they need out of her purse (from mobile chargers to drugs). Judy and Marshall learn that the funeral service will not be held by the Reverend, but by his son Trey (Danny Strong). The gang is surprised to learn that Trey used to bully Marshall in high school (especially since Trey is very short). Trey turns out to be extremely insensitive, though Judy agrees that Marvin Sr.'s last words should be the theme of the service. Marshall is reluctant to tell any such story as his last conversation with his father was over trivial issues, while the stories told by his mother and older brothers are very touching and inspiring. After charging his phone (which was out of power since before Marvin's death), Marshall discovers that he has a voicemail from his father. Marshall does not know what to do, and decides that he does not want to listen to it. Meanwhile, Robin runs into rough waters when she accidentally gives alcohol to Marshall's teenaged cousin. Lily takes the blame and faces Judy's outrage to let the latter vent all her emotions. Finally, an exhausted Judy eats and rests. The group tries to reason with Marshall, who counters by asking them what their father's last words to them would be should their fathers die. They realize that none of them would have anything special to say. During the service, Marshall impulsively goes out to hear his father's message. He initially hears only scratching noises, assuming that his number was accidentally pocket dialed. An outraged Marshall says how much his father meant to him and how unfair it is that his last message to him was a "pocket dial". Just then, he hears his father's voice on the phone, telling his son he loves him—followed by Marvin asking for his foot cream as his rash had started to act up again. Marshall takes comfort in the fact that his father's last words to him were "I love you". After the stories told by Judy, Marcus, and Marvin Jr., Marshall's turn to speak at the memorial service comes. He surprises the gang by deciding to keep his father's real last words to himself, instead telling everyone of how his father had told him to rent ''Crocodile Dundee 3''. Judy thanks Lily for what she had done during the course of the wake while making one last crude joke at Lily's expense, stating that it was the last time, apparently resolving their strained relationship. Ted, Lily, and Robin call their fathers to have meaningful conversations with them. Meanwhile, Barney calls his mother and tells her that he's ready to meet his father. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Last Words (How I Met Your Mother)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
