[For Nixon]

She had a full bottle of wine in her hands and she had to get away from Barney and not see Winters and right now she needed Lily and Ted and Marshall and oh god, why were they all gone? So in the lack of best friends (who weren't Barney! Lily's chipper voice piped up), Robin made a beeline for Winters' best friend.

"Lewis, Lew," Robin pleaded when she caught up to him, still clasping the wine to her chest like it was a baby puppy. "Help me."

As a general rule, people don't come to Lew for help these days unless they need something relatively superficial. A bottle of booze, a reliable contact, that sort of thing. Dick's who you go to when you really need help, and he's a little surprised to find Robin, of all people, frantically pleading with him for assistance. His gaze falls to the bottle of wine and then lifts to Robin's face again.

"You sound pretty desperate," he points out, and takes a sip from his glass.
