For whether it is being punched in the face, hot coffee poured on him, or a knife through his hand, you won’t hear a scream or see him freak out. Yet, don’t call him a sociopath. As shown by his love for his father, and relationship with Del, he does feel, cannot lie, and can be quite reliable. Making him ultimately just a weird kid.
