Hard to tell from just seeing a few seconds of him.
I can kind of see it in the first video. I stare at people and don't speak much and stare at things.

In the first clip, he seems to be very interested in that machine, but then again there are NT's who love mechanics so I wouldn't base an assumption entirely on that.

In the second clip, I LOL'ed because that is totally the same reaction I would have shown if I walked in to see people kissing.

(I don't have sound on my computer, so I can't make any statements on anything that is spoken.)

Does this character's bio describe him as having Asperger's, or are you just making that assumption?

If the video was better quality I might be able to answer. I couldn't hear very well and it was choppy.

Okay. The second clip was funny. I still couldn't hear what they were saying though.

He does indeed have asperger's syndrome. The writers of the show have confirmed it, and even though he hasn't outright said it yet, it's going to be talked about in later episodes.

I HAVE acted similar, but I couldn't hear what they are saying, and it IS short. Is this channel inthe US? I noticed that most are US shows.

He said 'DANCES SUCK!' So I guess he was mad about something that happened before he entered.
If I walked in on two people kissing I would probably awkwardly say sorry and then run off.
