Friar Laurence in Romeo and Juliet, appears to play a small role, because of his mere seven scenes. However, closer examination reveals that the Friar plays a fundamental role in the development of the story. He is a confidant to Romeo, moves the plot, and is instrumental to the tragedy at the end of the play.

At the beginning of the play the reader learns that Friar Laurence and Romeo are close friends. After Romeo explains to the Friar his love for Juliet, he tells him that him and Juliet must marry to end the feud between the two families.

Also, his plan to make Juliet sleep for 48 hours while Romeo comes and takes her away, failed.

He is the reason behind Romeo and Juliets death.
