[Sam] Sometimes it's hard to know the difference between science and magic. Like Fata Morgana. Fata Morgana is an optical illusion where objects in the distance. appear to be hovering over the surface of the water. There's a scientific explanation for it…. [phone chimes] …but to most people, it just looks like magic.

Description: Sam, an 18-year-old on the autism spectrum, decides it's time to find a girlfriend, which sets Sam's mom on her own life-changing path as her son seeks more independence.
