I love how Ron just stands there and doesn't interrupt Leslie whilst a man at the park is on fire

[notallgoodman]

The pause after Leslie picks up the phone kills me every time 😂

[valentinanovak]

i love tom's supportive nodding in the background

[JoakoVolador]

Leslie has time to made herself a cup of coffee and still ron waits for her to end that performance

[mickyjoe]

Can you imagine if this was the opening to season 1 instead of season 2? I'd have been hooked from the beginning

[Saintnick]

The exact moment I knew Parks and Rec was going to overcome its first season growing pains with ease.

My favorite thing about it is how Ron knows he has urgent information, but he's so quietly impressed with Leslie's rapping skills that he politely waits for her to finish.

[shivam_k]

Okay, here's the situation:

Your parents went away on a week's vacation. They left the keys to the brand new Porsche. Would they mind? Umm, well, of course not. [Tom begins beatboxing] I'll just take it for a little spin and maybe show it off to a couple of friends. I'll just cruise it around the neighborhood. Well, maybe I shouldn't. Yeah, of course I should. Pay attention, here's the thick of the plot. I pulled up to the corner at the end of my block. That's when I saw this beautiful girlie girl walking. I picked up my car phone to perpetrate like I was talking. [Picks up Jerry's phone, then hangs it up] The sun roof was open, the music was high. And this girl's hand was steadily moving up my thigh. She had opened up three buttons on her shirt so far. I guess that's why I didn't notice that police car. I can't believe it, I just made a mistake. Well, parents are the same no matter time nor place. So to you all the kids all across the land. Take it from me, parents just don't understand.

I love Tom’s beatboxing when she first starts

When I first seen it on NBC 2 decades ago, I was surprised and my sister started to go on “Go Poehler! Go Poehler!” during her freestyle and it went a feel-good moment to me. 😁

[joeg]

The single greatest scene in the entire show. I laughed hard out loud. He was courteous to let her finish lol

[waves]

Leslie Knope I do miss you and your team.

[NoisqueVoaProduction]

This is seriously in my top 2 favorite rap scenes on tv series alongside with Dean Pelton "Peanut Bar" Rap

[aksharaghav]

0:35 - 0:42 This part is just adorable!

[thatguyfromhendon]

“I guess that’s why I DIDN’T NOTICE THAT POLICE CAAAR!” best part😂😂

[Sgtturtle]

The fact that Ron let her keep going lol

[NicoleWilliamsx]

The gif version of this is what made me watch the show

[Plunkcown]

first time watching this i thought it was some kind of freestyle rap bit cause i'd never heard of the song before lol

[rockyradical]

I wonder if Leslie sung the verse about how Will Smith got felt up by a 12 year old. That's totally in the song, no joke.
