Ron Swanson Quote #486

Quote from Ron Swanson in New Beginnings

Ron Swanson: Leslie, look. I'm the last person to want to deprive the world of more stew, but are you sure you wanna do this?
Leslie Knope: Look, I love Tom, but you and I both know that he's not ready to step up. Don't you remember his last presentation on topsoil? The botched laser show? Larry still can't see purple.
Ron Swanson: That was Larry's fault. He picked up the laser and stared right into it.
Leslie Knope: I know, but still, Tom is all flash and no substance.
Ron Swanson: That's the old Tom. You've been gone for a while, Leslie. Tom has changed. He ran a business, sold it for a profit. He's also been working here for six years, and he's learned a lot from you. At some point, you're gonna have to trust him to do his job.

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.
