Spot The Difference

I was watching episode 20 of Season 8, it was clearly one of the best episodes of this season. For some reason they decided to mask characters in one core segment, you see  Barney and Ted clones from various stages and they’re all grouped together at one table. The shots are well planned, there is an extreme amount of attention to the background, the shadows all line up. You can’t spot where they cut the shots but if you know how it was shot, you can easily see what was done.

The shots were taken in groups, Ted present, Barney future and vice versa. Any interaction was done via a dummy wearing the same clothes and the shots were taken from behind the dummy, so you couldn’t see the face but still the skin and hair were a dead giveaway. Even then unless you looked hard you can’t spot things. However the team made one major screw up. Now, can you spot where they screwed up, obviously I screwed up with the title since I mention Season 7 but the clip is actually from Season 8.
