Oh, Mother.

On last night’s How I Met Your Mother Season 8 finale, the CBS sitcom shocked a number of viewers by finally revealing the face of the titular parent.

Viewers were actually treated to her identity before Ted, as we saw Tony Award nominee Cristin Milioti holding a yellow umbrella and asking for a train ticket to close out the episode.

Watch the concluding scene now:
