Leslie, Dave and others in “Unfinished Business”

[At the statue of Mayor Percy]

Leslie

Ah William Percy. One of Pawnee's greatest mayors and a true hero. During the Pawnee bread factory fire of 1922, he ran back into a burning building and saved the beloved secret recipe for Pawnee Pumpernickel.

Dave

Didn't like 30 people die in that fire?

Leslie

[sigh] He wasn't Superman.

Andy

He looks like Ron Swanson. Is that who this is based on?

Leslie

No. It's based on William Percy. Were you listening to what I just said?

Andy

...Yes.
