"I'm Leslie Knope" is the first episode of the fourth season of the American comedy television series "Parks and Recreation", and the 47th overall episode of the series.
It originally aired on NBC in the United States on September 22, 2011.
In the episode, Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) faces trouble telling Ben Wyatt (Adam Scott) that she is running for public office, which will cause them to have to end their secret relationship.

Written by Daniel J. Goor and directed by Troy Miller, the episode marks the beginning of Leslie Knope's campaign for public office.

When the government shutdown ends, Ben informs the department that due to the shoestring budget, they will only be on maintenance for the time being.
Ben suspects that Leslie is trying to have Ann convince Chris to distribute more funds to the department and confirms his suspicions when he crashes their date at the same time Leslie crashes it, but Ben decides to let it play out.
While at a gay club, Ben mentions the failure of the Ice Town project, showing that he used to be just as ambitious as Leslie, but Leslie gives him credit for trying.
Ben listens to Leslie's presentation regarding the Pawnee Harvest Festival idea that will allow them to do their jobs properly and bring funds into the department.
When Ben asks what will happen if it doesn't bring in funds, Leslie says they can shut down the department, and Ben allows them to go forth with the festival.
Ben assists Leslie with the festival preparations, and is thoroughly impressed when she gives a flawless presentation despite being stricken with the flu.
When Leslie and Ben try to ask the police force to handle security for the festival, Ben is shown not to have very strong social skills, although in this case it could be attributed to the fact that he doesn't understand Pawnee as well as Leslie.
He and Leslie continue to build a strong friendship over their development of the Harvest Festival, and it is implied he starts to show romantic interest in her when he inquires of the police chief about her relationship with Dave.
He also becomes better friends with Tom, supporting him when he is rejected by a cologne magnate, although Tom does his fair share of ribbing Ben.
While doing the media blitz for the festival, he is continuously asked about his disastrous tenure as mayor of Partridge.
After freezing up at the majority of questions asked, he then goes on a furious tirade at a later interview, prompting businesses to pull their sponsorships at the festival and putting the parks department in jeopardy.
At the last interview at "Pawnee Today", Ben finally stands his ground, stating that everyone does stupid things when they were teenagers and that he has since saved at least five cities from bankruptcy as an auditor.
During the festival itself, a series of catastrophes leads Ben to feel he is cursed and leave the festival, returning later to admit he is not over his past.
Leslie assures him that he is as responsible for the festival's success as she is, and has the local Indian chief Ken Hotate perform a fake ceremony to remove his "curse.
"Following the conclusion of the festival, Chris is installed as interim city manager of Pawnee, and offers Ben a job as assistant city manager, which he eventually accepts.
It is implied that he made the decision to be closer to Leslie and that he and Leslie are attracted to each other, but a new policy of Chris's forbids city employees to date each other and has halted any potential relationship.
But, after being assigned to a road trip that would cause them to be alone, Ben tells Leslie that he likes her.
At the end of the episode, Leslie approaches Ben to hand him receipts and he kisses her.
Since he is staying in Pawnee permanently, Ben decides to move out of the motel where he has been living.
Andy and April offer him a spare room in their house, since their previous roommate moved out and left the house to them.

Ben decides to teach a reluctant Andy and April how to properly live like adults.
In "The Bubble", Leslie and Ben are officially dating, but they are keeping their relationship a secret due to a no-dating policy at work.
They are enjoying what Leslie calls "the bubble", or the beginning of a relationship when everything is simple and fun.
It is suddenly threatened, however, when Ben has a meeting with Leslie's mother Marlene, who wants Ben to approve the purchase of four new school buses despite a difficult budget season.
Afraid of ruining the bubble, Leslie initially tells Ben she is not related to Marlene.
Right before Ben's meeting, however, Leslie admits Marlene is her mother, making him nervous and causing him to capitulate to all of her demands during the meeting, which makes Marlene consider Ben weak.
Leslie trains Ben for his next meeting with her mother.
He impresses Marlene so much with his tough negotiation skills that she becomes flirtatious with him.
An uncomfortable Ben tells Leslie they should tell her about their relationship, but Leslie does not want to lose the bubble.
Fed up, Ben storms into Marlene's office and tells her that he is dating her daughter and asks her to keep it secret.
Marlene laughs off the situation and tells Leslie that she approves of Ben.
In the season finale "Li'l Sebastian", Leslie and Ben continue their romance, but they have difficulty keeping it a secret.
Ron finds out and warns them that Chris will fire them if he learns about it.
As the city prepares for the memorial service for Li'l Sebastian, Pawnee's beloved celebrity miniature horse, Leslie and Ben are caught making out by a maintenance worker, so they send him home in exchange for his silence.
Unfortunately, the worker had the propane for Li'l Sebastian's memorial flame, which results in later confusion behind the scenes, that Leslie and Ben struggle to fix throughout the night.
Later, although the memorial turned out to be a success, things get even more complicated when Leslie is approached by scouts looking for potential candidates for elected office.
They believe she would be a good candidate for upcoming city council seats, or possibly the mayoral position.
With the expected increased media attention on her personal life, the scouts ask whether Leslie has any secret scandals in her life.
She denies any such scandals exist, thus omitting her secret relationship with Ben, and the scouts promise to contact her about preparing an electoral run.
