I now present to you People's Exhibit J supporting the theory that Sarah Chalke's Stella is How I Met Your Mother's titular propagator: A wedding is on the way.Let me backtrack a bit.

(It just hit me: Lovespring International's riotous Jennifer Elise Cox included, Lynch will have worked with both "Jan" and "Marcia Brady")....
