Tom Quote #416
Quote from Tom in Pawnee Commons
Tom: Great work, team. Donna, you and your work are ravishing, as usual. Ann, great organizational skills.
Ann: Wow. Genuine praise.
Tom: It's a tip I picked up from Lee Iacocca's autobiography. A small connection between you and your workers helps build loyalty. Jerry! How's the old ticker?
Jerry: Oh. Well, uh, the rehab is grueling-
Tom: Great! Glad to hear it. Yo, Roomba, drop a beat! ["Heigh-Ho" from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs plays]
[aside to camera:]
Tom: Rent-A-Swag is gonna be the opposite of Entertainment720. This is my last chance. If this goes down in flames, I will have nothing except my looks. I could always pimp myself out to hot older ladies. I need to remember that.

Quote from Leslie Knope
Ben: Look at this guy. "30 years of experience with a degree in architecture from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen."
Leslie Knope: Wow! Beautiful fountain. Perfectly manicured shrubbery. This is like Parks Department porn. This guy is great. I don't care if he's some junkie war criminal pimp. I am not gonna change my mind.
Ben: His name's Wreston St. James. He's from Eagleton.
Leslie Knope: Oh, I've changed my mind.
[aside to camera:]
Leslie Knope: I'm not being melodramatic when I say that people from Eagleton are snobby and evil, and they look down on Pawnee, and they would most likely exterminate everyone who isn't from Eagleton if they weren't so busy being obsessed with themselves. [exhales] God, that was close. Sometimes when I rant about Eagleton, I forget to breathe, and I pass out.
Quote from Leslie Knope
Leslie Knope: [aside to camera] Well, they always wine and dine you first, but the fact of the matter is Eagletonians are, without exception, snobby, condescending jerks. This is the Pawnee side of our border with Eagleton... [sign: "Now Leaving Pawnee. Come Back Soon!"] And this is the Eagleton side. [sign: "Now Entering Pawnee. Good Luck With That!"]
Quote from Tom
Tom: This is the best I can do for now. And I'm $46 under budget. Now I have a small treat for you guys for all your hard work. Pizza party!
Jerry: One small pizza for all of us. With no toppings.
Tom: Cheese is a topping, Jerry. And why are these lights blaring, by the way? Does someone here own stock in the electric company?
Ron Swanson: Hmm. If there were more food and fewer people, this would be a perfect party.
