Y'all, I'm just gonna come right out with it: I totes blubbed when April saved the say in the most clever way ever, and at the look of beaming pride on Leslie's face. SUCH A GREAT MOMENT! Yay! BUT THEN! OMG! When Leslie handed April her new nameplate, with "Deputy Director" on it, and April asked how she made it so fast, and Leslie says, "I had it made your first week here. I knew you'd be going places, so I wanted to be prepared."—all the blubs forever! THIS SHOW.

Dwyer shower! Down to clown! Hey, wild stallions! Let's scent up! Sawdust ear! Show these garbage people out! Mud and blood bath! Retro-jammed! Ron eating a banana! Do YOU know who Bill Gates is? Do you? He lives in Seattle and wears glasses. FYI. Other things!
