Sex & hookups 6 moments
How Sex & hookups shows up in How I Met Your Mother S8 E6:
Why? Who can say? Nick and I haven't had sex in three days.
Nick won't have sex because he pulled his groin muscle, all 'cause you made him join your stupid basketball team.
You can't go a couple weeks without sex? Our point guard's a 52-year-old virgin, happy as a clam.
Why would you do that? Delete that right now! No! If I don't give you a little push, you'll let this drag on until Nick can have sex again, and then you'll be right back to procrastinating on all fours.
The problem is, now that we're not having sex, we're talking more, and I'm realizing that Nick is kind of dumb.
You want to start turning off the lights during sex? No.
