How I Met Your Mother Finale: 10 Questions We All Need Answered

4. Meeting Robin's Mom

How I Met Your Mother Robin Dad Speaking of meeting mothers, when will we get to meet the ever-elusive Madame Sherbatsky (or whatever her last name is)? In a recent episode, we almost got to meet her before she cancelled on attending the wedding altogether, but I'm not so sure the writers will just leave it at that. This would be a major character development for Robin, who clearly has some lasting mommy/daddy issues that we still haven't fully discovered. And what about Robin's sister? We already know that some of Robin's family is already there and ready to shoot the doves after the ceremony (that's another event we're waiting to see), but why is Robin's immediate family more difficult to track down than the secondary characters of Saved By The Bell? If they do introduce Madame Canada (I've decided), this will be a big moment for the season that many of us would love to see. Having her surprise Robin by showing up at the ceremony could play into the cold feet it looks she's going to get. Maybe all she needs is some motherly advice she's been sorely lacking, though it's great that Barney's mom, Loretta, stepped up and filled that role in a recent episode.
