==Story==
==Development==
===''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]''===
Although The Grid was first revealed to appear in Jump Festa 2012, Sam was not revealed until a special trailer in February 2012. In the trailer, he appears mostly to play out the same role as in ''Tron: Legacy'', except for his interactions with [[Sora]] and [[Riku]].
====Side:Sora====
Sam is present with his father and [[Quorra]] as they watch [[Sora]] confront [[Rinzler]]; Quorra is intrigued by Sora's [[Keyblade]], prompting Sam to ask if his father created the weapon. After Rinzler escapes, Sam introduces himself to Sora and reveals his and Flynn's predicament. With Sora intent on rescuing [[Tron]], Flynn allows Quorra to accompany the [[Keyblade wielder]] to [[CLU]]'s ship while helping Sam search for the portal back home.


====Side:Riku====
==Appearance==
Sam first encounters [[Riku]] on a Recognizer. They both manage to escape from the games, where Sam reveals that he came to this world to find his father, who vanished 20 years prior.
 
Later, on the Rectifer, Sam and Riku team up to rescue Quorra from Rinzler, then they head towards the portal in a fighter jet that Flynn stole from a [[Black Guard]].
 
Soon, the four reach the portal, where they encounter CLU, who summons the [[Commantis]] to destroy them, though it is defeated by Riku. Sam and Quorra escape to the real world while Flynn dies absorbing CLU.

==Origin==
Sam first appeared as the protagonist of the 2010 film ''Tron: Legacy'', portrayed by {{w|Garrett Hedlund}}. He is presented as the son of the since-disappeared Kevin Flynn and the "official" owner of ENCOM, although the only interest he has in the company is playing an annual prank on the board of directors. Eventually receiving a message from his father, Sam enters the Grid inside his father's old arcade and ends up in conflict with the Grid's tyrannical ruler, CLU 2, and his right-hand man, Rinzler. As Sam is almost killed, he is saved by an ISO, Quorra, who takes him to his father in a secluded house in the mountains, where they are reunited.  
{{Q|I'm a User. I'll improvise.|Sam to his father}}
Sam's official debut was in the 2010 film ''Tron: Legacy'', the sequel to ''Tron''. He is presented as the son of the since-disappeared [[Kevin Flynn]] and the "official" owner of ENCOM, although the only interest he has in the company is playing an annual prank on the board of directors. Eventually receiving a message from his father, Sam enters the Grid inside his father's old arcade and ends up in conflict with the Grid's tyrannical ruler, CLU 2, and his right-hand man, [[Tron#Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance|Rinzler]]. As Sam is almost killed, he is saved by an ISO, Quorra, who takes him to his father in a secluded house in the mountains, where they are reunited.  


Upon learning that CLU 2's goal is to enter the real world and take it over, Sam embarks on a mission to escape back to the real world with Flynn and Quorra while leaving CLU 2 trapped inside. Along the journey, Sam develops romantic feelings for Quorra. Eventually, when they make it to the I/O tower, Sam and Quorra are forced to leave Flynn behind, who sacrifices himself to destroy CLU 2 by merging with him. Once safely outside, Sam takes Quorra to a bridge to show her a sunrise, something she had longed to see for a while.

When Riku first activates his [[Light Cycle]], the cutscene is a recreation of Sam's own Light Cycle activation scene in ''Tron: Legacy''.
