Not for lack of trying! Holmes is winning as a symbolic girl who got away for HIMYM‘s Ted — but the B and C plots are exhausting, and we were more interested in how Holmes’s role selections might have been mirroring her personal life back in 2011 than we were in the episode, which prompted some deeply unfortunate present-day references. Grab a scribbled-on Kit-Kat and listen.
