When Gally stopped Thomas from walking into the Maze, Jeff joined Gally and the other Gladers in stopping Thomas from walking into the Maze.

At night, at the bonfire, Jeff was introduced to Thomas along with Clint by Newt, who said that they were the Med-jacks who spent most of their time bandaging up the Slicers. Jeff, along with the other Gladers, watched Thomas and Gally wrestle before the latter sent the former to the ground, causing him to remember his name.

The next day, Ben, having been stung by a Griever, attacked Thomas. Jeff, along with the other Gladers, managed to get Ben off Thomas before he could kill him.

Jeff, along with the other Gladers, Banished Ben from the Glade.

The next day, Jeff, along with the other Gladers, watched Thomas run into the Maze to help Minho and Alby, who had gone into the Maze to retrace Ben's steps, when Alby got stung by a Griever.
