"Road Trip" is the fourteenth episode of the third season of the American comedy television series ''Parks and Recreation'', and the 44th overall episode of the series. It originally aired on NBC in the United States on May 12, 2011. In the episode, Leslie and Ben are sent on a road trip together and struggle to keep their romantic feelings for each other at bay due to a policy that forbids office romances.
