Adding more context to the above comment on season 3: “episode 1 around minute 16:00 ben vomits in the hospital audio only.” I didn’t watch the scene but wife reports it is definitely audio AND visual (just toward the side, not the whole frame). FYI!

I’m going to say technically no. However, in S1E5 a male character cries (somewhat over-dramatically) and although the actual characters are supportive, it feels like the audience is supposed to find it ridiculous. Like the joke is that he’s too sensitive.
