John doesnt like it when anyone badmouths his partner, in English or en français. Lise is both easily amused and touched by her partner's bravado in the line duty, and on her behalf.

"Dad, trust me, Lise wants to speak to you," Kelly sighed, "to see you. The two of you, you...need each other; I see it even if you don't. You're...better together." John x Lise. Post-finale.

"I, uh..." John mumbled as he stood in the hallway and turned towards Lise. He gave himself a few extra seconds to work up the courage to say what he needed to, shaking his head before he spoke. "I don't want you to leave." John x Lise. What we didn't see in 4x05.
