S3E10 · Soulmates

Complete story — includes the ending

Leslie is disappointed when she asks Ben out on a date and he turns her down. Ann convinces her to sign up with an online dating service, but the website surprisingly matches Leslie up with Tom. Determined to find out why they are supposedly a match, Leslie takes Tom out to lunch, which proves to be disastrous. Tom relentlessly teases Leslie and reveals he has multiple accounts at the site with the hopes of attracting all types of women. Leslie is later relieved to learn Ben only turned her down because Chris has a strict policy against office relationships. Meanwhile, Chris tries to impose a health initiative in Pawnee, which starts by banning red meat from the cafeteria. To prevent this, Ron challenges Chris to a cook-off between Chris' lean turkey burgers and Ron's traditional hamburger, the latter of which ends up the winner.
