Chris: Excuse me. We're looking for a couple wedding rings.
Herman Lerpiss: You're gonna wanna look through the jewelry and nails tray. There is some beautiful jewelry in here. But be careful. There's also nails.
Chris: Oh! Oh, these aren't bad.
Herman Lerpiss: Those are real nice. And they were nipple rings, at one point.

Quote from April

Andy: Hey, it's pretty crazy, I'm gonna be a cop tomorrow. I guess I better commit as many crimes as possible tonight. Get it out of my system.
April: [gasps] Ooh, found the marriage licenses. And I am going to take all of them. I don't want anyone else in this town to get married, because it makes it less special for us.
Andy: Good call, babe. Let's roll.

Quote from April

Andy: Hey, we got it! We got it. Marriage license done.
Leslie Knope: Wait a minute, hold on. It needs to be signed by somebody at the City Clerk's Office.
April: I'll just forge it. I forge government documents all the time.
Andy: That's true. Boom.
Leslie Knope: No.

Quote from Andy

Leslie Knope: Okay, Ann, dress duty. April and Andy, license duty. No time for verbs.
Andy: [laughs] I know you're in a rush, Leslie. I should point out that you said "duty" twice.

Quote from Jerry

Donna: Aw, shucks, business is a-boomin'.
Jerry: Indiana celebrity look-alikes. I mean, this is a brilliant idea, Donna. All my favorites are here. We got Orville Redenbacher, La Toya Jackson, Axl Rose, David Letterman.
Donna: Look, don't tell anyone, but I booked a special surprise. There's a Li'l Sebastian look-alike on the way-- what?
Jerry: What? Oh, my G-- [guffaws] Oh! Oh. [grunts]
Donna: Did you just pee your pants?
Jerry: Just a dab. I better go clean up.
Donna: You nasty, Jerry.

Quote from Ron Swanson

Ben: I am out of ideas. [snaps fingers] Jewelry store. No, that's closed, that's why we're doing this.
Ron Swanson: Perhaps I can be of service.
Ben: How?
Ron Swanson: How much do you think Ann would miss this sconce?
Ben: Oh, I don't know. It's part of her house.
Ron Swanson: [pulls fixture off wall]
Ben: Well, okay.
