If Leslie Knope thought getting Lot 48 turned into a park was a challenge, well, beating Gryzzl for the Newport land to make her National Park may be darn near impossible.

"Hey, I've seen you beat tougher odds than this," Ben (Adam Scott) says in the exclusive Parks and Rec clip. "They're not that powerful."

Enter the drone.

"Oh my god, Ben, we're about to die! The robots have come for us. I made fun of you when you said it would happen, but your novel has come true," Leslie (Amy Poehler) says.

Leslie is up against tech company Gryzzl for the land that the company is offering $90 million for. Gryzzl also happens to be working with Ron Swanson's (Nick Offerman) company. But Leslie an Ron are fine now! The two made up in an adorable fashion. In "GryzzlBox," Leslie and Ben begin to suspect the company is invading Pawnee residents' privacy, April (Aubrey Plaza) meets the new parks and recreation interns and Tom (Aziz Ansari) helps Andy (Chris Pratt) out with a contract. Also, the above photo happens and we cannot be more excited. Perd Hapley is back!

In the 8:30 p.m. episode, "Save J.J.'s," Leslie attempts to save her beloved diner and Tom gives Donna (Retta) the ultimate pre-wedding gift.

Later this season, John McCain, Rashida Jones, Rob Lowe, Ben Schwartz and more familiar faces will return as Parks and Rec wraps up its seven-year run.

Parks and Recreation airs Tuesdays at 8 and 8:30 p.m. on NBC.
