Leslie Knope: Ron, please.
Ron Swanson: No. No way.
Leslie Knope: Come on, Ron. I've been a loyal foot soldier. Give me my shot. Let me have Lot 48.
Ron Swanson: Is that a travel pillow around your neck?
Leslie Knope: Ron, I don't know how to explain this to you. When you've been down in the pit... Have you been in the pit?
Ron Swanson: No, I haven't gotten down there yet.
Leslie Knope: Well, I have.
Ron Swanson: When you fell in.
Leslie Knope: When I visited the bottom of the pit on a fact-finding mission. And when you're down there, you get some perspective about what it all means. And let me tell you something, Ron. What it means is I want this subcommittee.
