Grant Larsen: I came here because I wanted to meet you. I've actually wanted to meet you since before you called me.
Leslie Knope: Really? You know who I am?
Grant Larsen: Yes. You're the person who wrote this.
Leslie Knope: You read my proposal to clean up the Pawnee river? I wrote this two years ago.
Grant Larsen: Got shuffled around in interior for a year and half. Liam Bonneville actually used it to humiliate staffers, but... [laughing] He's kind of a bad boy.
Leslie Knope: Liam B-- You don't have to tell me!
Grant Larsen: This report is legendary. It's easily the most thoroughly research and passionate grant request I've ever seen.
Leslie Knope: Wow, you have no idea how meaningful it is to hear you say that. But you're a little late. The river cleanup's well underway.
Grant Larsen: This is bigger than the river cleanup. We're opening a new office in Chicago. I spent the last few weeks reading about you and your career and I think that you're the perfect person to run it. Leslie, would you like to run a branch of the National Park Service?
