In The Time Travelers, the Coat Check Girl walks into MacLaren's. Ted doesn't recognize her, but the others versions of himself and Barney, who are from the future, remind him who she is. Ted says that he always meant to go back and get her number but he didn't. He walks up to her to talk to her but is pulled into a booth by someone. He sees two Coat Check Girls. He asks them who they are, and one of them tells him that they are 20-months-from-now Coat Check Girls (from two parallel universes), one who is obsessed with Ted and whom Ted is sick of, and one who is sick of Ted. He asks her why that will happen and she replies that he has been dating for a long time and it has never gone any other way. He then looks at the present-day Coat Check Girl, who walks out of the bar.
