Josh Stewart: William LaMontagne Jr.

Quotes 

• William LaMontagne Jr. : You spend a lot of time telling people they can't blame themselves. So maybe you ought to take your own advice. You saved that boy's life, and the woman, too.

  Jennifer Jareau : Yeah, what about Francesca's?

  William LaMontagne Jr. : That wasn't your fault.

  Jennifer Jareau : Oh, whose fault was it?

  William LaMontagne Jr. : The unsub. And now because of you, he's never gonna be able to do that to anyone again.

  Jennifer Jareau : Now she's dead because I made a choice.

  William LaMontagne Jr. : No, don't. That monster killed her.

  Jennifer Jareau : No, I chose Roberto. You want to know why?

  [starting to cry] 

  Jennifer Jareau : Because he reminded me of Henry. That's it. I didn't even realize it 'till later, you know? Maybe if I went to her first, I... I could have saved both of them. I shouldn't have sent Luke out. We could have saved all of them. I know that.

  William LaMontagne Jr. : Or maybe you'd all be dead. JJ, you're gonna spin like a top with the "what if?"s. Now, you made a choice; the best choice you could, and two people are alive because of it. You're a hero, Jennifer Jareau. You're my hero and your boys' and your team, and all those other people that you saved. Don't you ever forget that.

• Jennifer Jareau : I miss so much. It goes... goes so fast

  William LaMontagne Jr. : I know, yeah, but you and me both know you won't be happy unless you're on the job. Neither of us would

• William LaMontagne Jr. : What's wrong?

  Jennifer Jareau : Nothing. I just... can I please take care of my son?

  William LaMontagne Jr. : He's sleeping. Trust me, you don't want to wake him up. JJ, come on, look at me. What is it? What's going on? You want to talk about it?

  [she shakes her head no] 

  William LaMontagne Jr. : Well, you know we have to, right? Remember what the Bureau therapist said. No holding it in, ever. We bring it home, we gotta get it out.

  [she instinctively glances at a framed picture of Henry and Michael] 

  William LaMontagne Jr. : It was kids, wasn't it?
