John gets sick and Finch refuses to let him run around chasing people and fighting with a high temperature. But they have a number, so Finch persuades Fusco to step up. And Carter to keep an eye on John and make sure he doesn't try to get involved anyway. Fusco ends up having to play the rich playboy and he is so awful at it that John and Carter watch the video feed and listen in with increasing horror. Finch's suggestions aren't helping, and it's no surprise when it all goes wrong and John has to go save them anyway.

And no they are never letting Fusco live this down.
