Spoilers after the jump.
My information’s pretty sparse this week, so here’s a list:
- Robin and Barney mocking the woman who reads the lottery numbers.
- Robin trying out to be the woman who reads the lottery numbers.
- Robin auditioning for an anchor position – this is possibly a flashback to her failed audition from I Heart NJ.
- College Ted, Marshall, and Lily – seen in a flashback when Marshall brings up Ted’s college radio show.
- High school Lily, winning a hot dog eating contest. [Chance of a sight gag featuring Alyson Hannigan's baby bump: Very good.]
- Flashback Marshall [I'm not sure where the flashback falls - could be college, could be last week] getting diagnosed with Dancer’s Hip.
My best guess is that Ted, Lily, and Marshall are bringing up embarrassing old stories and that that’s where Special Skills [having a radio show, speed hot dog eating, and whatever gave Marshall Dancer's Hip] comes in.
