In I Am Number Four, Sam starts off with no friends. Once John Smith (Number Four) arrives at the school, he makes friends with John and eventually Sarah. All Sam ever does is read comic books about aliens. When he was younger his dad went missing, but people found his truck by the boarder of New Mexico. Since Sam's Dad was obsessed with aliens, he believes that his Dad was obducted by aliens too. He agrees to help John look for Henri in Athens. There Sam proves he can be brave, trustworthy, and reliable. While fighting the writers of "They Walk Among Us" and escaping from a few Mogadorians, John reveals to Sam that he is an alien. Towards the end of the book, Sam shows emense bravery by fighting alongside John against hundreds of Mogadorians and killing off a few of them. Along with Mark and Sarah, Sam helps rescue Four and Six from the school grounds. The book leaves off with Sam running away from home to travel with Four and Six to look for his Dad.
