Gooshie is the head programmer
at Project Quantum Leap.
He also works the control for the
Imaging Chamber. He made a frantic call to Al when Sam Leaped the
first time.
He is described as a short guy with
curly brown hair, a mustache, baby blue eyes and bad halitosis.
He and Tina once had an affair,
and when Sam briefly changed history, they were married. While playing
poker, Sam covered up an exclamation about Gooshie by saying "Gooshie"
was Navajo for "I'll see it."
Gooshie is a bit absentminded.
When Leon Styles escorted Al into the hallway at gunpoint, Gooshie just
looked up and acknowledged "Dr. Beckett." He drives a blue Ford Probe,
which he got after his car ahad been stolen the year before. At Al's
suggestion, he had a tracking device installed in his new car and was able
to redirct it's signal so Ziggy could track it after Styles took the vehicle.
