Quote from Tom in The Trial of Leslie Knope
Chris: How long were you two lovers? Tom: Excuse me? Leslie Knope: Oh, God. Chris: Last march, I witnessed Leslie Knope and Tom Haverford engaged in a passionate yet tender kiss. It seems that Ms. Knope has a pattern of becoming involved with her co-workers. Leslie Knope: Tom, will you please tell the committee why we were kissing? Tom: An online dating site randomly paired us up. So, as a joke, I thought it would be funny to pretend you and I were dating. And then you kissed me as a joke... To shut me up. Leslie Knope: But we never had any other romantic contact after that. Tom: No, that would be like dating my older sister's elderly aunt. Leslie Knope: No, it wouldn't.
