Leslie Knope Quote #1353

Quote from Leslie Knope in New Beginnings

Leslie Knope: Presentations are upon us, so, Tom, which step are you at in The Leslie Knope Project Preparedness Super System?
Tom: Yeah, once you got on the city council, we kinda stopped doin' that.
Leslie Knope: What? Tom, no, you cannot drop The Leslie Knope Project Preparedness Super System. It was developed over thousands of government presentations that I gave over the past ten years. It is my very soul.
Tom: Well, I have my own system. Step one: Chill out a bit. Step two: Get up there and rip it.
Leslie Knope: That's your plan? To--to rip it?
Ron Swanson: Leslie, this is Tom's project. Perhaps you should let him do things his way.
Leslie Knope: Sure, yeah, you should probably just rip it. I think that's better than going with a tried and true 80-step system that led to-- and I quote-- "The most thorough and, dare we say, at times, over-prepared presentation that we've seen." And yeah, that quote came from the Indiana Blue Ribbon Panel on Irrigation and Drainage.
Tom: Fine, I'll go back to your system. You're the big dog around here.
Leslie Knope: Big kangaroo. And thank you.

Quote from Tom

Leslie Knope: I know you were excited to get in front of the committee and rip it, but in the spirit of teamwork, I unilaterally decided to bring Stu out of retirement. So pressure's off.
Tom: What? I spent a lot of time on this.
Leslie Knope: Doin' what, putting mousse in your hair?
Tom: It's a gel-based serum. Second of all, who uses mousse still? Oh, God. Leslie. Let's put our differences aside for a second. Friend to friend, do you still use mousse?
Leslie Knope: No, I use the juicy space thing. Whatever you do.
