- Marshall and Mary don't always know when the other is calling; this is a meme that's cropped up in a fair number of fics; obviously, writers should take whatever creative license they want, but know that it it's not part of the canon. Examples:
- Pilot - Marshall answers office phone with "Marshall" when Mary calls
- Stan by Me - Marshall checks his caller i.d. and sees that it's Mary before answering (close up shot on the phone)
- A Stand-Up Triple, Let's Get It Ahn - Mary checks caller i.d. before answering
- usually wears a Virgin Mary medallion (according to Mary McCormack)
