Ann Quote #145
Quote from Ann in Ben's Parents
Ann: Everyone, before everyone else gets here, I'd like to make a little toast. My romantic life has been a bit of a mixed bag lately. And when that's the case, it's hard not to be cynical about love and relationships, but it's couples like you that give hope to the rest of us. Leslie, you deserve the best, and you found it. Ben, don't you dare hurt her. [laughter]
Ben: I won't.
Andy: Don't laugh. She means it.
Ben: Okay, I-I won't.
Ron Swanson: Seriously, son, don't hurt her.
Andy: Okay, I'm not planning on hurting her.
Jerry: You better not be.
Ben: I'm not!
Donna: Hey, Ben, you best watch yourself.
Ben: Why would any of you think I would hurt Leslie? You're all my friends too.
April: Nah.

Quote from Ron Swanson
Tom: Ron in 60 seconds.
Ron Swanson: Tom. I haven't seen you tonight.
Tom: I've been working on my presentation. I just came by to congratulate Leslie, and then I'm heading back.
Ron Swanson: I admire the work ethic.
[aside to camera:]
Ron Swanson: I'm always looking for new investments. Ever since I got my first job at the age of nine, I have put all my money into gold, which is currently at an all-time high. So I have a certain amount of money. I've said too much.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Ben: This is amazing.
Leslie Knope: I know. I worked really hard on it. And, out of respect, I did not include any images of the only other man in the world who's as sexy as you, Joe Biden.
Ben: Yes, you did, right there.
Leslie Knope: Hmm? Oh, well, that's just a little one.
Quote from Ben
Leslie Knope: Okay, we are off to a rocky start, but we are gonna fix this.
Ben: Yes, we will. I called a cab. It's outside. I gave the driver 100 bucks to sit and wait, so whenever we're ready to go - like, maybe right now - all we have to do is walk outside.
Leslie Knope: No, I want to be here now, with you and your parents. Help me make this work.
Ben: Okay, fine. Best thing to do is distract them with innocuous talk about the stuff they care about.
Leslie Knope: Great, like what?
Ben: Well, they're white people from Minnesota, so hockey, fishing, skiing, sailing, and after a few drinks, put on a Prince album. Don't mention the Green Bay Packers or the state of Iowa. And also, I have enough frequent flyer miles to get us to Australia tonight.
