Parks and Recreation

Leslie arranges for a reporter to do a story about her park project, but she and her committee have the worst time staying on topic. She then calls Mark to help her save the story, but it ends up hurting more than helping. Meanwhile, Tom does all he can to suck up to his boss.

Oh,no. I don't count that.

#2

Okay,now should I give her a tour of the building? How many discussion questions do you have there?

#3 #4

You did an amazing in-depth article on the raccoon problem here in pawnee.

#5

So,uh,can I give you a quick tour before we get started? I've been here before. A few times.

#6

I am always amazed at his... quiet dignity.

#7

About what?

#8 #9

They're the real heroes of this story.

#10

So leslie,you're in charge of the committee.

#11 #12 #13

And I was taking the shortcut home,and I thought I saw a toaster lying in the pit.

#14

You knew that. I didn't know that,no. You should've told me,

#15 #16

Hey,I just got your 15 texts.

#17

and she's writing a really bad article and it's gonna destroy us all.

#18

Let me tell you something,tom. You suck at scrabble.

#19

Hey,leslie. Um,I have to go. Let's do the interview tomorrow morning at the pit.

#20

All right. 'Cause I hate driving.

#21

Hi. Sorry I'm late. Oh,no problem.

#22

I don't mean to complain,but I think shauna is being a little unprofessional.

#23

So how big is this lot?

#24

I don't-- I guess I don't know anything.

#25 #26

You dropped a z in there? April.

#27

Crap on a stick. Okay,technically,yes,it was nepotism.

#28

Hey,leslie. You're home.

#29

So how'd it go? She didn't ask about andy being drunk,did she? Uh,no.

#30

Shauna malwae-tweep and mark brendanawicz had sex with each other last night.

#31

he doesn't like her.

#32

Good idea,ann. I bet he didn't use a condom.

#33

It's unethical and it's irresponsible for a public servant to have sex

#34 #35

Hi,this is deputy director of parks and recreation-- Leslie?

#36

So...I was hoping we could have a do-over interview.

#37

Yeah,well it wasn't a mexican burrito.

#38

we're trying to turn a dangerous eyesore into a beautiful community park

#39

You seem a lot more confident than some of the other people I've spoken to.

#40

"Hey,you should write an article on unicorns,because they're more likely to exist than this park."

#41

"You should write an article about the sun falling out of the sky."

#42 #43

Well apparently,the reporter is gonna print everything you said to her.

#44 #45

You know we'd really appreciate it if you didn't print that stuff

#46

That park is never,ever,ever gonna get made."

#47

Oh,that's great. Thank you so much. You're welcome.

#48

Ron swanson Tom.

#49

I knew that couldn't have been you. You don't have the vocabulary.
