Robin receives a work permit notice from Immigration stating that if she does not get a job in the next seven days, she will be deported back to Canada. She first tries for a position on the News 10 channel but fails since she has no catch phrase to end her broadcast and simply strings together weird phrases (finishing with “use a condom”).
She then turns to Barney’s video resume suggestion, in which he uses meaningless buzz words such as “the Possimpible” to describe the nexus between the Possible and the Impossible. Robin does not agree with his method of getting a new job (including breaking 25 bricks with her forehead and wearing an Amazon warrior outfit). Her last remaining choice is the Lottery girl job. After Robin is turned down from that job, Ted, Marshall, and Lily are there for her in her last hours in the U.S. However, Barney finishes Robin’s video resume without her, and it gets her a job at channel 12 as a daytime host.
Meanwhile, Ted, Marshall, and Lily reflect on the unnecessary additions to their resumes. Ted still includes his stint as a supposedly controversial college radio DJ (a persona he named “Doctor X”), Marshall includes his basketball dunking championship from Minnesota, and Lily includes her victory at a hot dog eating contest (25 dogs in 8 minutes, with a nickname of “The Belly”). None of these “achievements” have anything to do with their current careers.
After Ted laughs at his basketball record, Marshall defends himself by mentioning a medical condition he has that prevents him from playing. We later find out that the condition is actually “Dancer’s Hip,” a malady common among ballet dancers. The gang jokes about it, much to Marshall’s dismay, but we later find out that Marshall does dance quite a bit, or as he tells Lily, “more than you know about.”
Finally, Ted and Marshall delete their “special” entries from their resumes, but Lily actually updates her resume after eating 33 hot dogs in 8 minutes at MacLaren’s in front of a cheering crowd.
