Upon arriving back in Pawnee, Leslie continues her thank-less work at serving the citizen's of Pawnee. She is later comforted by Ron and she hands him a belated wedding gift. This backfires on Leslie, as her speech is live streamed in a number of places around Pawnee. This depressing revelation comes out in her acceptance speech, as she accuses Pawnee's citizens of being ungrateful and overly mean to her for no good reason. At the awards ceremony, she meets the other winners and is distressed to find that they are all loved by their hometowns, whereas Leslie's hometown has a strong hatred for her. She initially wants to get back to Pawnee as soon as possible, but Ron convinces her to forget it and accept her award as planned. Meanwhile, Leslie discovers that back in Pawnee, her personal London pictures are being used against her, as those from the "Recall Knope" campaign are insinuating she'd rather be in Europe than work through her problems in Pawnee. With encouragement from April, Andy agrees to stay and help out Covington (even though clearly, neither of them have any idea where to start). Because Covington likes Andy so much, he requests he stay with him in England for three months to get things up and running. The only convincing Covington needs to chose Ben's proposal is Andy telling him blankly "Ours is great". He started the charity to do something good with his family's money but he has heard hundreds of charity pitches and isn't sure who to choose.


When Ben finally gets the chance to put forward his proposal, Covington admits he has no idea what he is doing. Andy and Lord Covington get along very well – they both have similar work ethic and mannerisms. Ben attempts to discuss terms with Lord Covington, but it quickly becomes clear he is easily distracted and is interested in childish, trivial things, much like Andy. They meet Lord Edgar Covington, a wealthy man from a distinguished family with lots of money and property. Everyone has their assignments: Leslie and April will prepare for the awards ceremony, Ben and Andy will attend their meeting for the Sweetums Foundation, and Ron will take pictures of London for Diane.īen and Andy visit the head of an English charity foundation to expand their after school music program that they started in Pawnee. Ron explains that he's only there because Diane wanted it to be their honeymoon, but due to morning sickness, she stayed home and insisted Ron still travel to London. She also announces that the ceremony is being held in London in a month's time.Īnother month later, Leslie, Ben, Ron, April and Andy are in London.

To lighten the mood, April makes a surprise announcement: she recently nominated Leslie for an award from the International Coalition of Women in Government, and Leslie was one of five winners. She has come up with 40 phases to get the public to like her again, but so far none are creating awareness or making a difference. One month later, Leslie is still being attacked by the "Recall Knope" campaign. They pick up Leslie Knope and April Ludgate on their way there, and with them as witnesses and an ordained minister ready to go, Ron and Diane are pronounced husband and wife. Feeling overwhelmed with joy and love, Ron proposes to Diane and the two head to the fourth floor of City Hall to get married immediately. Picking up where " Are You Better Off?" left off, Diane Lewis informs Ron Swanson that she is pregnant.
