Parks and Recreation's Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) has one big celebrity crush. It's not Ryan Gosling, Ryan Reynolds or Emma Stone. It's no one other than Vice President Joe Biden.

Another fact about Leslie: She wants to run for president in 2024. So when she visits Washington with boyfriend—excuse us, fiancé, Ben, of course she wants to drop by the White House. This is the setting for Ben (Adam Scott) to give Leslie her engagement gift. It's not a waffle tower, which is what she originally wanted, but an introduction to the one man who makes her knees go weak. Her reaction? Priceless.

Watch the Parks and Rec clip below to see the chemistry crackle between Leslie and the V.P.
