If we could type in a way that showcased the scowl on our face, this would be the perfect time do it.

Because new photos have been released for How I Met Your Mother, and it has Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) and new love interest Quinn (guest star Becki Newton) already in a compromising position….

...and the only person Barney should be in a compromising position with is Robin, damnit!

Sorry, we lashed out. We know that Barney and Robin (Cobie Smulders) are "not doomed" and will probably end up together, but we still don't like the looks of these new photos from episode 15, titled "The Drunk Train." Who does this new girl think she is?

"Ted (Josh Radnor) drags Barney along on a double date and Ted's double date goes nowhere, but Barney can't stop thinking about this girl Quinn who completely hates Barney and completely sees through him," creator Craig Thomas tells us. Apparently, Quinn will be "a bit of a puppet-master and Barney sort of falls under her thralls. The inventor of the playbook is being played."

"The Drunk Train" airs Monday, Feb. 13 on CBS.

What do you make of this first look at Becki Newton on HIMYM? Hate her already for coming between Robin and Barney? Or do you think Barney should date other ladies since she's (for now) still with Kevin?
