==History==
===Atlantis: The Lost Empire===
Sweet meets Milo Thatch for the first time on a ship before going onboard the Ulysses. He berates Mole for scolding Milo who had sat on a banner filled with piles of soil from every country in the world. He then takes out the soap to move away the little man who takes refuge under his bed. Sweet then takes several tests and quickly questions Milo who does not know what to answer and flees the dormitory.
Joshua later survives the attack of the Leviathan and he pays tribute with the crew for the loss of limbs during the attack. During the trip, Milo stays away from the group and Sweet suggests that he get close to them. The doctor then tells about his past and how he became a doctor.
He survives again, this time, a fire caused by fireflies and discovers with the team Atlantis, shocked and stunned. They all meet the Atlanteans and Sweet claps when Kida hits Mole in the face. They are then invited into the city and Joshua enjoys the wacky and lively food very much.
Later, Sweet furiously defects to Milo's side after Rourke punched the King fatally.
Sweet takes care of the king after Rourke punches him, which shocks and disgusts him while the latter loads the crystal stored in Kida. Sweet, however, cannot save the dying king by asking Milo to save Atlantis and his daughter. Sweet then follows Milo in his plan to use the Atlantean vehicles to find Rourke and prevent him from bringing the crystal to the surface.
Joshua then goes up with Audrey and they use a saw to cut the chains that tie the cargo to the airship. Rourke's men and Helga however attack them, forcing them to leave. Milo's group ultimately defeats Rourke and causes the volcano to erupt. They all return to the city and witness the protection by Kida and the ancient artifacts.
In the end, Joshua and the others are rewarded for their heroic deeds, and Joshua hugs Milo and releases a stiff neck. The surviving mercenaries then go to Mr. Withmore's and claim to have found nothing special. Sweet clarifies that Rourke had a depression and Cookie almost revealed what really happened to him. He is last seen, outraged at Mole's attitude, which hides in a flowerpot.
