| - Judy does not like Lily. Although she liked Lily at first, when Lily visited the Eriksens in St. Cloud she was horrified to learn that Marshall's fiancée did not plan to take the proud Eriksen name, even after being given a "Mrs. Eriksen" apron (Belly Full of Turkey). She also once overheard Marshall and Lily having sex on an afghan that she knitted for him. (Game Night) At Marshall and Lily's wedding, she told Lily that they wouldn't be together forever because "Marshall is going to heaven" (The Stinsons). However, Judy and Lily fixed their strained relationship in Last Words, when Lily helped her by being her "bitch". But in The Drunk Train, it is revealed through a flashback, that Judy still dislikes Lily, after Marshall and Lily hid Judy's "tacky" Minnesota gifts and Lily still doesn't like her mother-in-law, when Robin reads Lily's diary entry about desiring to kill Judy in Karma. In Oh Honey, Marshall stays in Minnesota to help take care of Judy. It is later found out in Desperation Day that Judy has become annoyed with his presence and asks Lily's help to get him out of her house, as he has started to behave like a teenager again. In The Over-Correction, Judy is visiting Marshall, Lily and Marvin, and tells Lily about her desire to start dating again. Lily encourages her, but Judy starts hooking up with Mickey, who is at then Marvin's nanny, much to Marshall and Lily's disgust. After having a talk with Barney, they tell their parents that they are okay with them dating each other. However, they tell Lily and Marshall, that they aren't dating, but are just having fun, which disgusts them even more. In Something New, she discovers Marshall and Lily's plans to move to Rome for a year. She demands to see her grandson one last time before they leave. While Marshall and Marvin visit her in Minnesota, she jokes about not letting them leave as well as accompanying them to Rome. It is shown in Daisy that she did in fact mean it when she said she'd move to Rome with Lily and Marshall. Her relationship with Mickey is also suggested again.
