Ann and Ron are low key one of the best pairings on the show. I love when they go through and fix all the issues with Andy & April’s home

LOL She's asking Ron to help her be more direct while indirectly describing her problem. Ron being Ron, assumes her problem is exactly what she's saying it is.
EDIT: For the people who still don't get it: If she had gone to anyone else, they would have figured out that she wasn't really talking about her garden. Even though Ron is the best person to go to for help, he's completely wrong for Ann because he's so direct about everything that he can't even understand that she is being indirect. I'm pointing out the smaller joke about *why* her appeal ends in failure, which is contained within the more obvious one of their mutual confusion.

The backyard suggestion is fuckin hilarious 😂😭

[WJen]

Love how she's enjoying the discussion but Ron is just like wtf is this convo even 😂

[AngelusD]

I love how she asks for advice on being blunt honest by using metaphor. 😂

[CommenterOfVideos]

Ron has never taken part in a more confusing conversation 😅

[pruckr]

I was surprised that Ron didn’t offer help lol

[AAK-newv]

Writing like this is why I love this show. Not to mention that they created/casted the perfect characters to deliver the lines.

“👺Then plant the damn ficuses yourself”😂😂😂

[jordanphillips]

Ficus need well-draining potting soil and pots with adequate draining holes. Ron knows best Ann. Backdoor that Ficus.

[Chfdadda]

Ron’s face of disagreement after “Nooo…I don’t think so.” 😂😂😂

[prachetasnayse]

Ron telling Ann to plant the ficuses in her backyard made me spill my coffee when I first heard it 😂

[Eric-ssli]

Lmao c'mon Ann, at least let him try planting them in your backyard. You never know

[MungoMonro-dnzy]

The beauty of her Mom and talents of her Dad.

[bigmoose]

This is the hottest landscaping discussion I’ve ever heard.

[rdp_]

“I want him to Plant ficuses in front yard, ” will forever be one of my favorite lines in the entire series. 😂😂

[MochaRose]

legend has it, Ron's still trying to figure out why she can't plant the damn ficuses herself🤷🏾‍♀️

[LoFiHaven]

Ron's advice about trying to have the ficuses planted in the backyard is unironically solid😂

[williamcarey]

I remember watching this and almost fell off the couch laughing about the ficuses in the backyard. Had to rewind and have wife watch again. Then got a long drawn out OIHHHH😂😂😂😂

[GrimReaper]

Ron: "I don't see how that would be impossible for you to do" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
