Quote from Leslie Knope in Christmas Scandal

Councilman Dexhart: Joan, this whole Pawnee sun story is "gotcha journalism" at its worst. Honey, let's just keep our private life In the bedroom where it belongs.
Leslie Knope: We do not have a private life. Stop saying that we have a private life. The fact is we never slept together. And if we did, you would have proof. And we would have seen it by now.
Joan Callamezzo: Councilman?
Councilman Dexhart: I can prove it. She has a mole on her right buttock.
Leslie Knope: What? That is a total lie. You've never seen my butt. What are you talking about? He has never seen my butt. [chuckles]
Joan Callamezzo: Well, I guess it's your word against his. I mean...
Leslie Knope: Fine. Here, Joan, why don't you look for yourself?
Joan Callamezzo: Is this happening? Wait...There's no mole. There is no mole! This exclusive story- There is no mole on Miss Knope!
Leslie Knope: I can't believe it's come to this. This is utterly humiliating.
Joan Callamezzo: Well, councilman, care to make a comment about no-mole-gate?
Councilman Dexhart: Yes. I really didn't think that Miss Knope would pull down her pants on TV. But since she did, I will admit that the rumors of our affair are indeed false.
Leslie Knope: Thank you.
Councilman Dexhart: However... I have no plans to resign.
Leslie Knope: Oh, great. Okay, councilman, you know what, you're a class act.
