Leslie Knope: Can I ask you a question? Why are you even running for office?
Bobby Newport: You know what, I need something to do to get my dad off my back. This seemed easy. What about you, why are you doing it? Who's your dad?
Leslie Knope: I'm running for office because I want to improve the lives of the people that I love and the city that's the greatest city in the world.
Bobby Newport: What? What does that even mean?
Ben: Hey, I've got an idea. How 'bout you quit running, then I win, but then I let you do all the work.
Leslie Knope: I'm not going anywhere, and we are gonna debate soon, and I need to warn you, I know my stuff. So you should toughen up.
Bobby Newport: Why are you guys smiling? I feel bad.
Bobby Newport: Hey, quick question. That little girl from your video. Oh, my God, she's so cute. Do you think you can talk to her and let her do an ad for me?
Leslie Knope: That girl is me as a ten-year-old.
Bobby Newport: How'd you do that?
