Biography[]

In the episode "The D-Train to Bone Town" of the first Season, Christopher is first seen inside of his house being called by his mother, Luisa, to meet Sam, while Sam's mother is busy with trimming Luisa's hair. At Sam's house and in his bedroom, he tries to find common interests with Sam to become friends with him. On the other hand, Sam doesn't have interests into becoming his friend, until he comes up with the idea on how to get a girlfriend to like him and have sexual intercourse with him. This sparks Christopher's curiosity of providing dating tips to Sam, who jots down plenty of tips on his notebook. As a result, he earns his companionship with Sam.

In the episode "The Silencing Properties of Snow", Christopher is invited to the autism-friendly dance with his mother by Paige Hardaway. He meets Sam and his parents, and he hears from Sam that he received a handjob from Paige inside of an igloo. He is surprised and happy to hear good news from Sam. During the dance, he shows his Hell Demon comic book to his mother.

In the episode "Penguin Cam and Chill" of the second Season, Christopher is disappointed and uncomfortable that Sam's mother is staying at his house.
