Tom Quote #27
Quote from Tom in The Banquet
Tom: Brendanawicz. Let's bounce. We're gonna be late.
Mark: For what?
Tom: Ladies. Scully's Bar. Let's go. Bounce, bounce, bounce.
Ann: No. Please, you guys are the only people here I know.
Mark: Uh, well, this thing's kind of wrapping up. Maybe we could leave a little later.
Tom: Uh, it's 9:30, on a Friday night in Pawnee. There's not gonna be a later, Mark. Come on, now, you promised we'd go hit on chicks.
Mark: Maybe you and Leslie can join us at the bar.
Ann: Look, I would love to come hit on chicks with you guys, but she seems kind of engaged in something and I think I should probably stay.
Tom: You'd hit on chicks? For real?

‘The Banquet’ Quotes
Quote from Ron Swanson
Ron Swanson: [aside to camera] I enjoy government functions like I enjoy getting kicked in the nuggets with a steel-toe boot. But this hotel always serves bacon-wrapped shrimp. That's my number one favorite food wrapped around my number three favorite food. I'd go to a banquet in honor of those Somali pirates if they served bacon-wrapped shrimp. Excuse me.
Quote from Ron Swanson
[aside to camera:]
Ron Swanson: I refuse to lather Marlene up, kiss her ring like everybody else. Instead I'll be delivering a speech of facts.
[later:]
Ron Swanson: Marlene is a woman. She has worked in the government for three decades. Thirty years. Properly applied, that's how long a good varnish should last. So, Marlene, it is true that you have won this award.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: This is very exciting. This is a big night. We are gonna meet some powerful people tonight, so take this down.
Tom: Mmm-hmm.
Leslie Knope: Good evening. Marlene Griggs-Knope is my mother.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: How important are speeches? I don't know, ask the Gettysburg Address. Oh, it didn't answer your call? Maybe because it was in the Smithsonian.
