Leslie will thankfully always be skeptical of the
neighboring of Eagleton and because of it we got so many great moments from her
and Ben’s trip across the border. I especially enjoyed the bit about how
Eagleton was somehow able to miraculously have palm trees despite being in the
middle of Indiana which was an excellence use of the fact that the show is
filmed in California. I will say that I’ve never been a fan of the sitcom character
not being to get words out of their mouths to admit they were wrong or to apologize,
but I did appreciate Amy Poehler’s effort to try and make it work.
We also got the final mission for special FBI agent Bert
Macklin who comes to the tough realization that after 40 years on the force,
and being undercover without being able to see his family during this time
either, it’s time to hang up the shades. It’s always fun to see April and Andy
goofing around and getting to play the ridiculous characters they create, and
it never hurts if the payoff results in one or both of get to learn a life
lesson along the way.
The rest of the Parks Department was off helping Tommy Fresh
spruce up the store property he just bought for his new business “Rent-a-Swag.”
This was probably a bit of a sub-par plot, I think I either would have like to
see less time devoted to this or much more as a couple characters, Ron and
Chris in particular, didn’t get much to do here. But the store seems to be up
and running and it will undoubtedly provide some interesting stories going
forward.
Other favorite moments:
- ‘Jazz + Jazz = Jazz’ is pure radio gold.
- Now Entering Pawnee: Good Luck With That.
- “We asked for help and they claimed they weren’t home. An entire town claimed they weren’t home.”
- “They call their boogers Pawnee caviar.”
