Quote from Tom in Pawnee Commons
Ann: Listen, man, I know you don't want to repeat the mistakes of Entertainment 720, and that's great, but you're gonna need a little bit of the old Tom to make this business work. Tom: No. That Tom ruined everything. Ann: Yes, he did, and that Tom made you a horrible boyfriend and a terrible employee and drove you to bankruptcy. Tom: Are we nearing the point? Ann: But your swagger and your showmanship and your confidence is part of you, and in small doses, it can help. You can't have Rent-A-Swag without the swag. Tom: I barely have enough cash to get everything set up. Ann: I know. Take this. We all chipped in. Use it to spruce up the store. And in return you can give us like one share of stock in the company. Like a mini public offering. Tom: "Smort", Ann. Smort. This is a cause for celebration. Waiter! Eight strips of bacon, uncooked, in a sealed package.
