[Pawnee, 2025:]
Ben: So did anyone have any insights on our "running for governor" situation?
Leslie Knope: I've been so busy catching up with everyone, I haven't had a chance to ask them.
Ben: Yeah, me neither.
Leslie Knope: Okay, here's what I think. I hate when we're on opposite sides. It stinks. Plus, if one of us runs, it doesn't mean we're gonna win.
Ben: Right, and it's not like this is the only career option for either of us. So all that matters is that we are good.
Leslie Knope: Right, which is why I have an idea. I think we should flip a coin. I mean it. Let's literally flip a coin, because whoever runs is gonna do a great job, and whoever doesn't run is gonna be right alongside the other one, offering advice and support and whatever they need. So it doesn't matter. So let's flip a coin.
Ben: Okay, you, Leslie Knope, the queen of planning and binders and pro-and-con lists, you want to leave this to chance?
Leslie Knope: Yes, because whatever's next, you and I are in it together. So let's go tell everybody, and they can participate, and they can sign the coin, and then, you know, the coin will eventually make its way into the Smithsonian.
