David Rossi : It was a long time ago.
Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : Well, we won this time. That's what matters, right?

David Rossi : The last thing this woman needs is some con man giving her unrealistic ideas.
Stanley Usher : With all due respect, sir, you may not know what she needs. Your job is to know the perpetrators.
David Rossi : We're not talking about my job.
Stanley Usher : Well, maybe we should be. Because there are a lot of people out there who don't believe in what you do, either.
