Great episode. The college scenes with Andy, Ron and April were pretty funny.

I'm getting sick of where Leslie just acts retarded for most the episode, then comes to a big realization at the end, only to do the same thing the next episode. I still enjoy the show but I feel like the plots are weaker now than they used to be.

That had me laughing so hard. :lol:

I hope the Leslie/Ben relationship thing gets toned down now they are back together. That plot has been dragging for awhile now.

"That was a hard speech to hear. So many negative words!"

"We once had a community meeting about a bike rack that took six hours! But when I need them the most, we're done in forty five minutes?!"

I also loved Jerry going from second to third to fourth throughout the episode.

I agree. Leslie has always been a version of Michael Scott. What I like about Parks and Rec is that unlike the Office, Leslie is never the sole focus of the show. But also like Michael Scott, the show wouldn't work as well without her.

Do you not recall the first season at all?! Leslie was unbearably stupid most of the time. I love all the tweaks they've done to her to give us the current incarnation by comparison.

Ron, Andy and Audrey were by far the gold in this episode.

Thank goodness, Rob Lowe's real hair is back. That wig was so bad.

Completely agree. The changes they made between the S1 and S2 were most welcome.

I still find her adorable.

However, Ron and Andy made this ep.
