Ben Quote #245
Quote from Ben in Second Chunce
Leslie Knope: "And therefore, with your help, we can make our future bright. I believe I still have a lot to offer this city."
Ben: I'd swap those two lines. Always helps to end on the call to action. I'm sorry if it felt like everyone piled on. We were just being honest. But if you really want to do this, of course we'll support you.
Leslie Knope: Thank you. I'm sorry I stormed out.
Ben: You know, I've been thinking for weeks of what to get you as a "last day in City Council" present. And I finally figured it out. You remember Jen Barkley, political consultant and power broker?
Leslie Knope: Hey! Jen! What brings you back to Pawnee?
Jennifer Barkley: Ben bought one hour of my time. I heard you need some consulting?
Leslie Knope: Well, uh, I guess. I mean, how are you? How's your family?
Jennifer Barkley: Okay, I get paid $1,200 an hour. Do you really wanna spend any of that time talking about my mother and her 19-year-old Korean husband?
Leslie Knope: Well, that does sound fascinating. But you're right, let's talk.

My old friend Ingrid de Forest won the recall vote, and she's taking my place on Monday morning. But, you know, luckily for me, I've processed all my feelings. And I've gone through the five stages of grief: Denial, anger, Internet commenting, cat adoption, African dance, cat returning to the adoption place, watching all the episodes of Murphy Brown, and not giving a flying fart. How many stages is that? I don't know. The point is I'm fine now.
