Lily and Marshall figure out some bad, bad news about their new apartment; Barney convinces Ted that St. Patrick's Day is the end of the world; Marshall yells at Ted when the truth of St. Patrick's Day with Barney is revealed. Next week we are covering 3 major FRIENDS episodes: The One Where Ross and Rachel take a Break; The One With the Morning After; The One Without the Ski Trip.
