It's that he was surprised he was asked to.

I saw that promo during Community, and said DAMNIT NBC THEY SPOILED A SHOCKING TWIST FOR LIKE THE SECOND STRAIGHT TIME. And then I watched the episode and it was a silly red herring. I was relieved.

I know people are exhausted by three episodes straight of Leslie-Ben stuff, but this is how the mind works. The breakup happens, you try your best to move past it and busy yourself with other things, and it's successful for a little bit, maybe as much as a month. Then something happens and you think about them again.…

That's from Richard the Second, you jerk.

"How do you know about Camp David?"

Pawnee has infected Chris. The microchip is compromised. I would laugh so hard if he got diabetes later this season.

We're calling them BNL now? Really? That's how essential they are?

I'm grateful that someone called me >_> instead of "sideways."

"and the comment about little boys liking her were highlights."

And that was something that was immediately pointed out by the children under her tutelage.

"Please, Ms. Perkins, we're trying to have a debate!"

The last two years before the Hank stuff, they would have Frank Gifford narrate a previous Monday Night Football game involving one or both teams involved. I'm hoping that this will be something similar.

"You will recall, Mr. Bemis at election day you spent all day reading the buttons on people's lapels. You will also recall the young lady who took exception to this and hit you with her umbrella."

Be careful, or he'll throw your dictaphone tape in the fire.
