Quote from Tom in Beauty Pageant
April: I can't believe you like beauty pageants.
Leslie Knope: April, whoever Miss Pawnee is, is gonna be the representative of womanhood in our town. And as a judge, let me assure you that this year's Miss Pawnee will be chosen for her talent and poise.
Tom: Whoa. The girls from Talent and Poise are gonna be there?
Leslie Knope: What?
Tom: Talent and Poise. It's the strip club by the VA hospital. I have some meetings there.
Leslie Knope: That's disgusting.
Tom: No. What's disgusting is the Glitter Factory. Do not go to the Glitter Factory.

April: Beauty pageants are idiotic. But I found that the winner of the Miss Pawnee pageant gets $600. I can be idiotic for $600.
Quote from April
April: I'm going to do impressions.
Host: Oh, celebrity impressions. That's wild. Wild stuff.
