* Shortly after Sammy shows Mitzi (in his closet) the footage of her and Bennie from the camping trip, Mitzi is immediately reduced to tears and all Sammy could do is comfort her (see the page image) and promise not to tell anyone her affair with Bennie.
* When Mitzi and Burt announce their decision to divorce due to Mitzi's affair and her depression. All Sammy could do is watch Reggie and Natalie argue with both Mitzi and Burt.
* Sammy and Monica decide to breakup due to Monica's plans to study at Texas A&M University and Sammy blurting out his parents' divorce.
* After Sammy shows his Ditch Day film to his schoolmates, Logan confronts him about his portrayal in it, confused over his positive portrayal in it. Fed up with the constant anti-Semitic bullying from Logan and Chad, Sammy finally [[TheReasonYouSuck lashes back]] at Logan.
-->'''Sammy:''' I wanted you to be nice to me for five minutes! Or maybe I did it to make my movie better. I don't know why. You're the biggest jerk I've ever met in my entire life. I have a monkey at home that's smarter than you, YOU DUMB ANTI-SEMITIC ASSHOLE! I made you look like you could fly!
-->'''Logan:''' But I can't fly. I can outrun any guy in Santa Clara County, and I worked real hard to do that. But you, you make me feel like I'm some kind of failure or a phony or, like I'm supposed to be some guy I'm never gonna be, not even in my dreams. You took that guy whoever he is wherever you got him from and you put him up there on that screen and told everyone, everyone that that's me. And that's not me.
