This is his opportunity to become independent and build upon his aspirations to have a job with income and to have a romantic relationship. Sam begins to realize his hopes for the latter start to come to fruition as he meets a woman named Amanda, who works at the same credit union as him. He starts to open up to her about his disability and shares his thoughts, fears and aspirations. Eventually, they start to date.
