We don't deserve Ben

Warning: Spoilers
Ben was literally a late addition to this show, but somehow became the best combination of the "Straight Man" along with "Lovable Nerd".

In this Episode, Ben and Leslie are still apart and Ben is offered to stay on with Jen and to run another campaign. But in different scenarios, both Ben and Leslie learned the lesson of thinking about the future. Leslie, being a great girlfriend supports Ben in his away-from home campaign job, and goes to cancel the house that they were going to rent together. But because Ben is the best boyfriend suprises Leslie at the rental house where he drops down on one knee. Leslie become emotional because despite her chaotic couple of weeks, says that everything is perfect at that moment in time.

Ben and Leslie are hands down the best TV couple of all time. Ross and Rachel, Marshall and Lilly, JD and Elliot, Jake Peralta and Amy Santiago - all Do not hold a light to Leslie and Ben.
