Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: Bon voyage, Ann.
Ann: My God, this is amazing.
Leslie Knope: That's sparkling cider.
Ann: Why is there a New Year's Eve countdown clock and the Easter bunny?
Leslie Knope: I don't know when we're gonna be able to visit each other, so just to be safe this party is a celebration of every event that's gonna happen this year. Your birthday, New Year's, Chinese New Year's, flag day. Ain't no party like a Leslie Knope party 'cause a Leslie Knope party is actually 30 parties.
Ann: Knope, you have out-Knoped yourself.
Quote from Jerry
Tom: We all burned our initials in, see?
Chris: Wait a minute, who's G-J-L-G-G?
Jerry: That's Garry Jerry Larry Gergich Gengurch. I burned in all my names. I really--I didn't know what to do.
Quote from Perd Hapley
Leslie Knope: We know that you were already approached by Sweetums and you said "No," but is there any way you would reconsider?
Perd Hapley: I'm sorry, Miss Knope. There is such a thing as journalistic integrity, and it is something that I have as a journalist with integrity.
Ann: It's really important, Perd. Please? Come on. For old time's sake.
Perd Hapley: Well, the story of that appeal is it was heartfelt. And in response to that appeal, I respond: Okay.
Quote from Andy
Chris: Thank you all so much for helping me with these boxes. I'm just a little behind because every time I start, I get [sobs] a little emotional.
Tom: Hey, that box has my name on it.
Ben: Hey, this one has my name on it.
Andy: This one has plates' name on it.
Quote from April
Leslie Knope: Okay, don't mention anything about the groundbreaking to Ann. Repeat that back to me.
April: Tell Ann about the groundbreaking, frame Ann for murder, release a deadly virus into the water supply.
Leslie Knope: Good.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: Can I still call you when I have thoughts on Jennifer Aniston's future?
Ann: Not if I call you first.
Leslie Knope: And can we still be on the phone for every state of the Union address and every Oscar red carpet coverage and every single viewing of Tootsie?
Ann: Of course.
Leslie Knope: Oh, Ann Perkins. You perfect sunflower. You totally changed me, you know? You taught me how to balance my life, how to be patient.
Ann: Mm...
Leslie Knope: How to be more patient.
Ann: Yeah, that's better.
Leslie Knope: How to throw bureaucratic caution to the wind when it came to Ben. But most importantly, you taught me that I can't pull off a tulip skirt.
Ann: It's just not your shape. [laughter]
Quote from Ron Swanson
Ron Swanson: Breakfast, Knope?
Leslie Knope: Oh, I don't know.
Ron Swanson: Come on. There has never been a sadness that can't be cured by breakfast food.
Quote from Ron Swanson
Ben: Man, he put a lot of work into our presents. I feel kinda bad just getting him a gift card.
Ron Swanson: I also shook his hand. Twice. Anything more than that would be excessive.
Quote from Tom
Tom: Let's all put our heads together and brainstorm. We gotta send this dude off with the perfect gift. I say we start with the three "Cs": cashmere, concert tickets, caboodles of cash.
Ben: I feel like those are perfect gifts for you.
Tom: Those are perfect gifts for anyone. Ugh, I wish you guys were Donna!
Quote from Ron Swanson
Chris: You have just found your buddy boxes. Each box contains a memento of our friendship. I was gonna give them to you later, but there is no time like the present. Fun pun alert.
Ron Swanson: A bronzed hamburger.
Chris: It's from our turkey versus beef cook-off, remember? You were a worthy adversary.
Ron Swanson: I would have preferred a regular hamburger for eating, but this is very nice.
