“2020,” Leslie (Amy Poehler) says, imagining their future together.

“Uh, that’s a stretch,” Ben (Adam Scott) replies.

“Fine, 2024,” Leslie conceded. “I win, we move in there. I’ll take the West Wing, you take the East Wing, and you can be the First Gentleman.”

For the first time in her life, Leslie is at a loss for words. “Uh. . . that . . . how did?” she stammers. “How did you do this?”

Ben smiles and replies, “I called in a few favors.”

Biden’s episode of Parks and Recreation airs Thursday, Nov. 15, at 9:30 p.m. EST on NBC.
