Jennifer Barkley: Okay. This campaign is about to start in earnest. Things are about to get real intense. Leslie, you ready?
Leslie Knope: Me Leslie?
Jennifer Barkley: Yeah.
Leslie Knope: Well, I was an actual candidate, so I think I can handle being a candidate's wife. I know all the issues inside and out.
Jennifer Barkley: Mm. See, that's the problem. Being the wife of is a minefield. If you were just a ding-dong, I would just slap a flag pin on you. I'd pour some Valium down your throat and just shove you behind the podium way upstage. It's the smarties that freak people out.
Leslie Knope: I think you're underestimating the voters.
Jennifer Barkley: [laughing] I don't think that is possible.
