Andy · Ann:You should've heard the sexy stuff she said. I said 'hey, Andy, it's Ann, can we talk at my house?' That's not how you said it, you were like, 'Hey, Andy, it's Ann, can you talk at my house?'
Andy:Is she gone?
Andy:None of your clothes fit me, so I'm putting an apron over the front stuff.

Andy:Can I cut in line again?
Andy:I feel right at home as a shoeshine. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I know I'm doing it really, really well.
Andy · Ron:Third time, today. [In reference to Andy getting a shoe shine, apparently from himself or a satisfied customer]
Andy · Mark (implied):What the ****, man? / I don't know what happened. Frankly. I emitted a noise. The noise was involuntary. / Sometimes a sound is just a sound, you know?
Mark/Ben · Andy:You know the thing? / The other day? / Other day... Other day... / Yesterday? / I am... That was... I'm okay. You know, I'd be okay if we... If we never mentioned it again. / Never mentioned what? / The moan. The weird moan you made that was super-weird? Do you not remember that? I talked about it with the lady who went after for half an hour. She said she thought it was an animal...

Andy:Every day I subtly chip away at their relationship, weakening it little by little. (Andy's confessional)
Andy:How to hustle somebody in pool by Andy Dwyer. Step 1, find the person you want to hustle. Invite them to play pool. Should they accept, you're in.

Andy:Andy cuts off a young-looking guest who wants a drink: 'You're underage. I could lose my liquor license, I'm sorry.'

Andy · Ron:Andy reveals someone put gum in Justin's coat pockets. 'But he's probably too busy cleaning gum out of his coat pockets.' Ron: 'Wow. Unbetrayed.'

Chris · Andy:Thank you, Andy. I agree. I love this idea. And I love me for thinking of it. My therapist said that I need to be more vocal about appreciating myself. Thank you, Chris. You're welcome, Chris. I sound insane. I'm going to go talk to my therapist.
Andy:Government is inefficient and should be dissolved. Please hold while I transfer you.

Andy · 911 Caller:It is heating up in this piece. / That sounds awful. / Good lord, it is hot. / Yes, mercy me. / Living in this town's like living in the devil's butt crack.
Andy · Children · Ron:Hi, I'm Andy. I really like your dress. / I'm a princess. / I'm a mermaid. / I'm the director of Parks and Recreation. I'm here to fix that hole.
Andy:Your highnesses, we do humbly request thine permission to befix doth holes yonder.
Ron · Diane · Andy:Ron is given lemonade by Diane and they have a normal, pleasant interaction — a visual contrast to Andy in the background apparently playing with the children.
Andy:♪ Ron and Diane / sitting in a tree / k-i-s-s-i-s-s-i-p-p-i.
Ron · Andy:Andy, come help me tamp this down. / For the last time, Ron, it's Princess Rainbow Sparkle.
Andy · Ron:I think it would really make Diane happy. / Why would that matter? / Shut up.
Donna · Andy:Then Ana asks Grey to punish her. Donna, please, can you keep it down? / Or at least research how to deliver a baby that's coming out face up. / Lay the mother on her side and try to move the baby in a corkscrew fashion.
Ron · Andy:'A,' I don't recall inviting you in here, and 'B,' I did not like her. Her life is messy. / Ron, messy is fun, okay? My whole life is a giant mess and I love it. I mean, look at my hair. I have gum in my hair.
Andy · Ron:Diane is awesome and she likes you. And you like her. I can tell. 'A,' I don't recall inviting you in here, and 'B,' I did not like her. She's not my type. Her life is messy. Ron, messy is fun, okay? My whole life is a giant mess and I love it. I mean, look at my hair. I have gum in my hair.
Andy · Ron:Andy: 'Dude, you're totally blowing this.' — Ron: 'I'm not gonna apologize. It wasn't even a real tiara, for God's sake.' — Andy: 'Oh, well, relationship over. Too bad.'

Andy:Andy explains his investigative logic: 'Okay, so we know it's not Jerry, unless he was lying to me. I can never tell when people are lying to me. Hopefully that doesn't come up in my police work.'
Andy · Chris:Andy confronts Chris: 'Don't play stupid and handsome with me. You stole my computer so that I could practice for my police exam. You're as guilty as you are sexy.'

Andy:Andy's crime-solving plan: 'You're gonna set up a perimeter, maybe bug a few phones? Ooh, I know. We could put out a dummy computer for them to steal, fill it with explosives first, boom, take 'em all out.'
Officer · Andy:Officer: 'Look, man, this is what most police work is. Just writing stuff down. It's not superhero time.' Andy: 'Maybe we should find the person who stole his positive attitude.'
Andy:Andy's latest suspect: 'My new suspect — the dude who runs carpet emporium. The way I figure it, criminals love to wrap things up in rugs. Plus, he yelled at me when I tried to unroll 'em all.'

Ben · Andy:Man, maybe going to therapy 1,000 times a week is helping. I mean, if you'd seen that picture a month ago, you would have fallen apart.
April · Andy:What is the criminal code for a 3542? / Assault and battery. The way I remember that, I picture 35 salt shakers and 42 batteries.

Examiner · Andy:Personality test scenario: 'Your name is Andy?' / 'I don't know how to answer that. Well, everyone calls me Andy, but my full name is Andrew, I think, so... No? Wait. Yes.'
Examiner · Andy:Scenario: A high-school-aged child asks to hold your service revolver. What do you do? / 'Yes, I give it to him. When I was a kid, I always wanted to hold a cop's gun. To make that dream come true for another kid — well, that's what being a cop is all about.'
Examiner · Andy:You pull over your father for speeding. How do you handle it? / 'Well, first I would be like, Dad... You're alive? What the hell? Also, do you know where my catcher's mitt is?'
Andy:Official police wrist lock. You can't hit me. Try to hit me. Or here, no, try — it's this hand. Wrist lock. Boom, too much pain, you can't even hit me. Try to hit me. If I had my gun, you wouldn't try to hit me, though, is the thing.

Andy:It's the Redwood Music Program. It's an after-school music class for at-risk kids. It'll keep them off the street. And the streets, as you know, are dangerous. Example -- I fell in a sewer grate once. I was there all day. In conclusion, we cannot let our children live in the sewer any longer.
Andy · Ben:That guy? Do you even know him? Oh, my God, Andy, it's you.
Andy:Uh-oh. What's happening? [Andy begins to cry with happiness]
Tom · Ben · Andy:Uh, 'Spasm.' No, 'Butter Face'! / Very good!

Dennis Feinstein · Tom · Andy:Wear whatever you want, as long as it's not too bright or reflective. You know, I want you blending in to the surroundings. / How fast can you run? / I think that guy wants to hunt me.
Andy · Dennis Feinstein · Ben:You're a dick. / Excuse me? / Andy-- / How dare you talk to me like that? Where are your manners? You come to me asking for money, and you treat me like this?
Andy · Ben · Tom · Dennis Feinstein:Why did you make me apologize to him? / Guys, just hold it-- hold on a sec. / Mr. Feinstein, with all due respect... you are a major dick. / What? / Run! / Eddie, get my crossbow. / Crossbow? What the-- / You will pay for this!

Andy · April:Andy to April: 'Just remember. Every time you look up at the moon, I too, will be looking at a moon. Not the same moon, obviously. That's impossible.'
Andy · April · Ron:Andy is found hiding in a dumpster. He claims: 'I was just here in this dumpster, because I jumped in.' April: 'Get out.' Ron: 'We need to talk. About what? Fresh air. Real weapons. An honest kill.'
Andy:Andy's confessional: 'I can't go back to London. I'm totally in over my head on this project. Every day, someone comes up to me and says, "I need your approval on this, Mr. Dwyer. I need your signature, Mr. Dwyer. That's not a toilet, Mr. Dwyer."'
Andy:Andy updates his Chuck Norris metaphor: 'I am. But I'm like Chuck Norris now. Some old guy with a beard who used to be good at karate, but became a dumb has-been, and is scared and confused about his big London job.'

Andy:Four car accidents. All these strangers' insurance information.
Andy:Really? That's the best part. We should split a turkey sometime.
Andy:Andy sees Ron Swanson perform as Duke Silver and has a visible reaction of disbelief/recognition [Uh!]
Ron Swanson · Andy:I am Duke Silver. / I have a twin brother. [repeated back and forth as both explanations fail]
Ron Swanson · Andy:The only other people who know are Tom and April. So, please, keep it to yourself. / Are you kidding me? You are really good! You are, like, the saxophone player for the California-raisins-good.
Andy:You're gonna play right after Bobby knight ranger. It's a night ranger cover band where they only wear red sweaters.
Andy:I once forgot to brush my teeth for five weeks.
Andy:I don't know who Al Gore is. And at this point I'm too afraid to ask.

Andy:Can you rub any kind of mud on yourself to prevent predator from seeing you with his thermal heat signature sight, or is it more-- Ow! That sucks.
Andy:Oh, whoa. Five-second rule. No, ahh.
Andy · Ron:Ron, look. I found all three differences. — Those are two completely different pictures.
Andy · Ron:I don't know, I think my tooth looks fine just like this. — Well, my grandmother was missing that tooth, and she was the most beautiful woman on her oil rig.
Andy:That's why you know even though you're not my dad, you're like an old brother to me. Like a cool uncle, but old. Like a grandpa. But cool like a son.
Andy · Ron:No way. I'm not going back there. I already won all the magazine mazes. — Don't worry. It's gonna be fine. — Fine. Let me just wolf down this peanut brittle real quick. — Why would you do that? — Oh, right. 'Cause calories.
Andy:When it's all said and done, there were a few mazes I'd cheated on. Also, the inside of my mouth is black and hot.
Andy:So do I strip down to my underwear, or all the way naked?
Andy:April Ludgate, I'm gonna sing to you a song that I first wrote 15 years ago for my prom date, Sarah Weiss.
Andy:♪ You're as hot as the sun / But you're as cold as ice / Let me take you to paradise / Come on, roll the dice / It will be twice as nice / Sarah Wei-- April Ludgate ♪
Ben · Andy:Ben and Andy's pre-prom hype sequence: 'Pawnee! Class of '99! Uh-huh! Ooh!'
Andy:Girl, you look creepy.
Andy · April:Would you like a drink? All this stuff is free. No, it's not. Why'd you pay for a limo? Because it's prom. If you don't show up in a limo, legally, they can't let you in.
Andy · April:I'm April's mom. / You two look adorable. / Ugh, just take the picture already, mom. / My baby is all grown up. / Have her home by 11:00. / Mom, stop embarrassing me.
Andy:Look around. The bloom of youth. Like flowers on the sunset of an eagle's poetry.
Andy:It's like the movie Expendables 2. First time, hated it. Second time, hated it. Third time, it was okay. But then the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, tenth time I watched it, I realized something. It's just -- it's not good. It's not a good movie.
Andy:Babe, huge news. I just got us invited to Damian Keating's barn party. He's captain of the soccer team, and he has a fake I.D., so I think he can get us all free beer.
Andy:We got that limo for three more hours. I think the extra length could help us get us over that lake.
Andy:I broke the box, and I threw away all the votes, and I voted for you a thousand times.
Andy:Hi, Pawnee High. As your prom king, I'm your ruler. Silence!

Andy:Andy's continued confusion about Leslie's pregnancy: 'Now you need to get home. You and Ben have some planning to do... You're gonna need a cage, a water bowl. You have a good vet? Tick medicine.'
Andy:I am not good at keeping secrets. That's exactly what I told Kyle when he told me his wife was cheating on him.
Andy:My neighbor Eric — he's kept a secret for 20 years. He's in Witness Protection.
Andy · April:It's about Larry. He is very sick. He has some kind of disease. / Oh, so that's why you've been so nice to him and let him carry all your stuff. / Yes, that's the reason. Good call, babe.
Ben · Andy:Andy, you can say 'Okay.' / Okay. Bye. / I didn't mean to say 'Bye.'
Andy:Technically, we're all dying, unless you choose the right grail. It's the dusty one.
Andy · April:Andy's escalating fake secrets: Ben's dog is dying / Ben is dying — he has the same disease Larry has / Leslie is dying / They're both dying / I'm dying / Chris and Ann are moving / They're moving again to China...town in France.
April · Andy:Babe, you don't have to hide from me. I don't care about the secret anymore. / ...But screw it. You're more important than anything. I'm gonna tell you 'cause it's super juicy — you ready?
Andy · Larry:Everybody, if you could gather around... / They're here — don't try to get it out of me anymore. / The reason I have been acting so weird is not because I've been waiting for the results of the soil samples to come back. / Well, jeez, I've been up all night trying to make sure— / It doesn't matter, Larry. It was a pointless ruse designed to waste time.
Andy:Yes, I did it! I kept a secret.

Andy:Can't believe Michael Bay spent a billion dollars of his own money to build that for The Rock.
Leslie · Andy:I can't believe you were able to recite that entire movie, from memory, on the plane ride. You weren't trying to sleep, were you? I couldn't tell, 'cause you had that mask thing over your eyes.
Andy:That's exactly how they'll be expecting me to try to break in.
Andy · Leslie:Wow! Look at it go! I mean, I knew it would go down, but not that fast! / I thought he was gonna be on it. Yeah. Anyway.
Andy:We could tell them that there's buried treasure in Pawnee, and then, after they give us the free WiFi, we tell them that the treasure was love all along.
Andy · Ben:Yeah, man! We did it! This whole company is ours! / Oh, no, it's not. That's mine. That's mine. It's all mine.
Andy:Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to accept the following missions.
Andy:Their first project will be to come up with a shorter name for the group.
Andy:And then in the first game, of course, I break my leg. The crowd starts chanting my name, and I give them the thumbs up. And then I go to the hospital, I get really good at chess, I end up beating the computer finally. And then the band just sort of drifts apart.
April · Andy:One kid peed his pants because he didn't want to miss anything. / What? I gave a kid pee-pants? / Yes! / That's why I do what I do.
Andy:I love you, Kay Hanley! (shouted at musician from crowd)
Andy:Super cool to hear Sister Christian that many times in a row!
Andy · April:I wish I could marry you all over again. / Let's get divorced. That way we can get married again! / Yes! Let's do it. / You want to? Yes! / We should do that, right? Yeah, totally. / We're getting divorced! Yes!
Andy · Ben · Leslie:Ben, how many bags of marshmallows do I give them? / None. Just let April do everything. / Oh, God, one day in the distant future, things will be calm and normal, right? / Probably not. But that's okay.
Andy · Ben:Ben, how many bags of marshmallows do I give them? / None. Just let April do everything.
Andy:I've got something big and exciting. All we need is a blimp and a decoy blimp.
Andy:Was it Putin? Voldemort Putin, of Russia? I'd love to take that bastard down.
Leslie · Andy:Andy, you thinking what I'm thinking? / Oh, hell, yeah. Blimp time. / No.
Leslie · Andy:I think this is a job for Jonathan Karate. / Awesome. Even better.
Andy:Exactly. (responding to being told 'Jonathan Karate' isn't in the appointment book)
Andy:Jonathan Karate confessional: 'Occasionally on my show, we deal with real issues like bullying, peer pressure, or holding in farts.'
Andy:What if we steal the keys to Feinstein's building, break in, and TP his office, film the whole thing. We'd definitely get on a prank show.
Dennis Feinstein · Andy:Who did this? / We did. One way or another, Jonathan Karate always gets his man.
Andy:Wait, where's... Hey, guys, where's Gavin? Gav? Wait, stop. There were supposed to be six ninjas. Where's Gavin? Gavin? / Who was Gavin's buddy? Caleb, come on, dude. / Why do we even have a buddy system? Is he in the bathroom? You need to tell me if Gavin is pooping. / No, do not laugh, okay? You're not even Caleb. You're Gavin. You're Caleb. If you're Caleb, where's Hunter? Hunter! Hunter! / Okay, who was Hunter's buddy? Hmm? Oh, I was. Oh, crap.
Andy:The Meagles are weird. The words that they say sound passive, but seem aggressive. I feel like there should be a term for that. Like, 'nicey-meanie.'
Andy:Easy peasy. Lemon sneezy.
April · Andy · Leslie:One time, Andy told her that I was getting rid of my bangs and she called 911.
Andy:Apple juice, barbecue sauce, Count Chocula... Wait. Oh, sorry. That's the list of cool new nicknames I want people to call me.
Andy:Yeah. Ben Wyatt, please? Tell him it's Count Chocula.
Andy:No, it's Andrew Dwyer. I'm sorry.
Andy · Ron:I'm guessing it's a business? Assassins? Hit men? [Ron] Doctors. [Andy] You guys are doctors? [Ron] We build things.
Ron · Andy · Don Swanson:Meet our vice president, Don Swanson. [Andy] Is this your brother? You have a brother? [Ron] No. Fine. Yes, suppose the cat's out of the bag. I have a brother. One brother.
Andy · Ben · Ron:All those years together at the Parks Department, and you never told us you had a brother. [Ron] You worked at the Parks Department? [Ron] Tour is over.
Andy · Ron:So, what kind of building is it? [Ron] It's a large-scale storage unit for surplus vinyl sheeting.
Ron · Andy:Although I suppose she could use 'creative' ways to organize and stack the vinyl sheeting. [Andy] No, that's insane. [Ron] We use the Towson Method. It's tried and true.
Andy:Ooh! Yeah. Let's grab some lunch and some ice cream and then maybe some after-ice-cream tacos. We'll just brainstorm. Maybe grab some snacks.
Andy:What kind of a business is this? Is it, like, hit man or astronauts? [Barney] It's an accounting firm.
Andy:She designed her own major, Halloween Studies.
Ben · Andy:Does that compound your interest? Huh? What do you say? Huh, Barney? [Ben] Ben, that was amazing.
Andy:Holy crap. This is the job for her, I can feel it. She'll take it. Now, let's talk perks. Does she get the summer off? Is it like school?
Andy · Ben:Ben, that was amazing. / Thank you.
Andy:Simple solution? I break into her college and I change her degree to accounting. Easy. On my way out, look up at the blackboard. What is that? Impossible math equation? I solve it. X equals Y, obviously. Professor comes up to me, he says, 'I've been working on that for 50 years. Why don't you accept this math trophy?' By the time he turns around, I'm gone.
Andy:Give me the job! My name's April Ludgate, and my talent is explosive. Go USA! USA! USA!

Andy · April:All we gotta do is train Champion to sniff out Ron's key. Okay. All we need is Ron's key to give him a scent. So give me the key and I'll get you that key.
Andy · April:I found this one, but it has a falcon on the top. I'll keep looking. No, that's it! That's it, Andy! Eagle, falcon, whatever. Not whatever. Eagles are more robust, have stronger talents. Didn't go to Bird School much?
April · Andy:Garry's wedding ring, Tom's watch, Kyle's car keys...

Andy:Andy's case for having children: 'Yes, I would love all the awesome stuff my body would go through. I mean, if all it meant was puking and getting weird stretch marks and veins everywhere, then sign me up. But at the end, we've brought a child into the world. That's disgusting.'
Andy:"I want a little April... Or even a little... Boy April."
Andy:'No. They wipe all of the disgusting stuff off of it immediately.' — Andy defending newborns
