Given the medical team's observation on his claustrophobia, Herrick was ordered to report to mandated counselling. At his first session, he met [[Rivka_Brzezinski|Brzezinski]] and [[Nesre Salo|Salo]] for the first time ([https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/3e9poLBFmPE/m/zHi5QiIYEgAJ 20]). Rivka was quick to offer exposure therapy, which caused a negative reaction from both Salo and Herrick and let to her being escorted out of the counseling session. Upon Salo's return, she had a more patient approach to therapy, where Josh revealed the source of his claustrophobia. At the age of 7, a combination of poor maintenance and a ship-wide power loss, led to a turbolift failure that had killed the father of his friend. The man had protected Josh and his sister, Em, during it's crash but it led to his demise. It had taken over an hour for rescue teams to arrive; and during that time, the man's eyes were open and glazed over ([https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/KwabDD-4kKQ/m/OgfdQriuAAAJ 21]|[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/8s_sA-i_67Y/m/n7uNxvWnAQAJ 22]). This was the first time that Josh had opened up about this experience to anyone, and Salo recommended weekly counselling sessions following this first productive one ([https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/hmkze774Oj0/m/oVe7aGf_AAAJ 23]). | Given the medical team's observation on his claustrophobia, Herrick was ordered to report to mandated counselling.

With this shore leave came the notable departures of Kel, Corelli, Perez, Rox and Vomek. Josh had been put in charge of pulling together a farewell video for their departure which highlighted different favourite moments as a farewell message from the {USS|Oumuamua} crew. During the party, he ran into the first officer, [[Etan Iljor|Etan]] ([https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/quWIdrH6Afs/m/-k0QjmChAQAJ 24]) where the two briefly caught up before joining a larger group containing [[Aine Sherlock|Sherlock]], [[Arturo Maxwell|Maxwell]] and [[Lhandon Nilsen|Nilsen]] ([https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/4SrXWPACHqk/m/ZrVbp6T7AAAJ 25]).

While Josh didn't have a chance to bid the departing crew farewell, he hoped his going away video had done them justice ([https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/5SlZAajOcDM/m/9exVz6RXAQAJ 28]. | With this shore leave came the notable departures of Kel, Corelli, Perez, Rox and Vomek.

As the party progressed, Josh realized that he knew Lhandon somehow. It hadn't been clear exactly how he knew the man, and he was left with more unanswered questions after trying to do preliminary digging. The opening of the new operations centre had provided him an opportunity to ask deeper questions, but Nilsen had not been willing to share much detail — however, a friendship had started to form between the men. He was left wondering if this was the same ensign who had been highly publicized in the FNS ([https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/qqSx63zktzo/m/M8YuKBrRBQAJ 29]|[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/oPkGeMcsLUg/m/MGcb-cwNBAAJ 30]). | As the party progressed, Josh realized that he knew Lhandon somehow.
