Tom: Leslie, I appreciate what you're trying to do, but once you go in there, you will see things you cannot un-see.
Leslie Knope: I'm a feminist, okay? I would never, ever go to a strip club. I've gone on record that if I had to have a stripper's name, it would be "Equality." But I'm willing to sacrifice all that I've worked for just to put a smile on your perverted little face. So don't blow this.
Tom: All right.
Leslie Knope: Okay! Lap dances are on me. I mean, I'm paying for them. They're not gonna actually be on me.
Tom: Got it.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: I kind of feel like Jane Goodall studying the chimps, you know? 'Cause there are some feminist scholars who say that stripping is a feminist act.
