Hmm... I was also under the impression that he is autistic, but he does
seem to exhibit emotions. Specifically, immediately before Laura's funeral
he seemed to be rather upset (when Jacoby was talking to him). He was also
disturb by Laura's not being able to tutor him anymore. So perhaps he's not
autistic, or Lynch and Co. are taking some creative license. Whatever.
