Ted didn't want to know why they'd broken up, but Robin sure as hell did. Knowing that she and Ted apparently had an expiration date was like a car accident; she just couldn't look away. Given the situation with her future self sleeping with Barney in Barney's timeline, Robin knew that sleeping with Ted last week in Marrowood's timeline -- and agreeing to try and date him, since that was what she'd wanted, after all -- may not have been the smartest idea. After months of telling herself that she didn't want to be with Ted, though, just for him to start dating that bitch Victoria... Now that Robin had her chance she wasn't going to just not go for it.
But even still, she couldn't not know.
She opened the door once Barney arrived, gesturing for him to come in, and took a seat on the end of her bed. The ghost dog wasn't around, thank God; Robin didn't think this discussion needed a witness. "Thanks for coming over, Barney. I was just wondering..." He'd asked why she couldn't just ask him on the network device, but Robin didn't want to risk the chance that he wouldn't answer because they weren't face-to-face. "Why Ted and I broke up. And when it happened."
