Season 1 Episode 9, "Belly Full of Turkey," is the show's first Thanksgiving story, though instead of Lily (Alyson Hannigan) hosting the big meal as she'd do in later seasons, the two plotlines feature her and Marshall (Jason Segel) celebrating the day in Minnesota, while Ted, Robin (Cobie Smulders), and Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) stay in New York. After shenanigans at a local soup kitchen lead to the latter three getting kicked out, they decide to enjoy the Thanksgiving buffet at the Lusty Leopard, where Ted meets a pretty stripper (Katie A. Keane).
The final bit of the episode plays out like this:
Stripper: I'm Amber.
Ted: Oh, I'm Ted.
They shake hands.
Stripper: Actually, I'm Tracy.
Ted: Still Ted.
Narrator (v.o.): And that, kids, is the true story of how I met your mother.
Cut to the year 2030 and Ted's son and daughter screaming "What?!" and Future Ted (Bob Sagat) hastily following that up with "I'm kidding." (Just one of many infuriating fakeouts delivered by this show over the course of 208 episodes.)
