The situation
A boy called Sam laughs at strange times. When a teacher is telling someone off, he laughs. When something serious or sad happens, a giggle bursts out of him. People think he's being rude or doesn't care, and he's got into trouble for it more than once. But you've watched him closely, and the laughing seems to happen most when things get tense or uncomfortable. It almost looks like the laugh isn't really about finding things funny at all — like it's something he can't help.
