Leslie Knope: Hey! I'm glad you're here. Let's go over the plan.
Ben: Okay, you and I go stargazing in Harvey James park, while my parents slowly strangle each other in the living room.
Leslie Knope: No. Your mom arrives at 7:00. We hand her a glass of chilled white wine, and, oh, look, my mom is walking over, and they're both educators and mothers. What a fabulous coincidence. Then later, Stephen Wyatt shows up--that's your dad.
Ben: Yes. He's terrifying.
Leslie Knope: We make some small talk, and 30 minutes later, I show everybody the big surprise.

Leslie Knope: The Knope-Wyatt unity quilt. Ben and I are weaving our lives together, so I have woven this quilt. It represents every member of our new united family. Of all my metaphorical art projects, this is by far the coziest.
