Slapsgiving 3 has perhaps the single strangest visual effect we've ever done on #HIMYM. #Monday
— Craig Thomas (@HimymCraig) January 12, 2014Some folks are assuming Monday is the "final slap" -- just want to say: Not necessarily. #2left #HIMYM

Craig Thomas, not Carter Bays.
ReplyDeleteAnd ugh at one more slap.
A just corrected this before I saw your comment, lol.
ReplyDeleteWe are "assuming" it because it says so in the press release.
ReplyDeleteUgh, another slap can't we end this already?
ReplyDeleteIf you've been keeping up with the count there are two left. The only way this one coming up would be the final slap is if one happened off camera.
ReplyDeleteThere were 5 to start off with. One was used in the same episode he got the slaps, one was used at the end of Barney's play, one was used in Slapsgiving, and another was used in Slapsgiving 2. That left 1 slap, but then Barney traded having to wear the Ducky Tie for 3 more slaps, giving Marshall a new total of 4. He used 2 of them right then. Leaving 2 more unaccounted for.
Strange effects... maybe something like this?

...or a Japanese TV commercial? :)
The final slap's gotta be used for Marshall to convince Barney to marry Robin when he's freaking out.
ReplyDelete"The only way this one coming up would be the final slap is if one happened off camera." - Or if "the one coming up" was actually two. I'm looking for the slap to be a first slap that softens Barney up for the second slap that is super effective.
ReplyDeleteoh is another slap scheduled for finale????
ReplyDeleteThey said at the Comicon that they want to end the series in a slap.
