Episode Summary & Review
Summary
While promoting her new book about Pawnee, Leslie falls prey to some “gotcha” journalism. Meanwhile, Ann is determined to bond with Ron and April.
Our Take
A breezy, funny half hour where the jokes do the heavy lifting. The gotcha journalism plot gives Amy Poehler plenty to work with, but the real pleasure is watching Ann awkwardly force her way into Ron and April’s orbit, a pairing the show should have mined sooner. Not a landmark episode, just a solid one, and that’s fine.
