Biography[]

Season 3[]

In "Debts," Josh is wheeled into the hospital with a bleeding face. Shaun and Claire treat him, and another member of the hospital debriefs them on what happened.

At the subway, Josh was trying to save a woman who had been groped, but her harasser bashed his face with a skateboard, causing a severe fracture in Josh's jaw.

Claire and Shaun ask Josh questions, and they learn that Josh never knew the woman that he helped. Claire gives Josh papers to sign for an extensive jaw reconstruction surgery as his next option.

While they are operating on him, Claire commends the man for being brave, but Andrew thinks that it was stupid. Andrews says that Josh put too much on the line for someone that he had never met before. He says that if he makes sacrifices for people, it is greater for people that he knows more.

After they operate, Claire, Andrews, and Shaun break the news to Josh, telling him that he will never be able to speak or eat solid foods again, and Josh jokingly writes on a pad that he could lose some weight.

On the second operator for Josh, Andrews cancels the surgery and says that they can do better for Josh. Andrews is determined to invent a new procedure.

Shaun, Morgan, Claire, Alex, and Andrews stay up in the office to find a better solution for Josh. When Morgan starts giving Shaun dating advice, Andrews gets annoyed and tells everyone to go home.
