On today's agenda: saving JJ's!, Tom and Donna in Beverly Hills, Tom finding romance, introducing Jonathan Karate!, and a brilliant ending to the question we've been waiting to have answered since the first episode of this season! When Leslie and Ron work together, with Ben as their paperwork extraordinaire, they can do anything!

Thank you so much to Dalon J. Holland (Percy Cattube, the intern) for the incredible memories from the Gryzzlbox episode and thanks to Kamala Jones (Trish) for sharing what it was like to be on a rooftop bar shooting in Hollywood!

Rest in Peace to the amazing JJ's Diner's own, Brent Briscoe and to Jen Oda, who played the lovely sushi waitress at Tom and Donna's Treat Yo Self Day. You are missed and you are remembered.

The robots are here! Leslie laughed at Ben's novel when he said it was coming, but it's true! Today, we talk about the dangers of social media, AI, how data mining isn't always illegal, but how it's definitely NOT CHILL. We also get a fantastic Ben moment with standing up for Pawnee and owning up to his actions, we love you Ben! Plus fantastic deleted scens of scared-Ben-on-TV, Andy and Morris, you weirdo. 😂

Leslie works on getting Ron on board to take down Gryzzle, while also holding one of the best town halls. Tom uses his crying for good to get Andy a better deal on Johnny Karate and Lucy and Tom see sparks fly! Oh, plus April gets some foreshadowing on job descriptions she likes? (while also ruining Jen's chances, but we'll let it slide)

AND THANK YOU SHULIE COWEN! For the sweet voice notes on your memories, and sharing your UCB times working with Amy, how fun! So glad you could join!

One of our favorite episodes and most deep, heartfelt episodes of the series. We discuss all the therapy/psychology of this relationship, from heartbreak and grief of losing a friendship to making an FBI-style murder board to figure out where it went wrong. We do understand Ben probably got a babysitter, we just had to break it down. :P

Plus, we acknowledge the fantastic camera angles leaving Ron alone and Leslie and Ron isolated together as well. Fun fact: this is the only episode where they do not speak to camera in the "mockumentary" style. So great, well done writer, director, crew, Amy, Nick, all of the above. So glad to get to see this evolution of friendship!
