He pulls a firealarm just because he is too inpatient to wait a few days until he can enter school again and talk to Amy. [[spoiler: He got all the therapist treatment he needed and attention from many adults from an early age so he never felt the need to befriend Qiana (the only other kid at the FCP) even though she tried many times.
