Honest question: did Corky ever have sex?

I remember an episode that's basically about Corky getting feelings of horniness, looks at erotic pictures with hot chicks etc. and he confesses he wants to make love to a woman. It was the show's way of saying "people with Down Syndrome have sexual urges too". Okay, cool ofcourse, but did Corky, in later episodes, ever get to do it? Get a girlfriend? Got kissed by a girl (down syndrome or not)? In real life parents sometimes hire someone who 'helps' a mentally handicapped person with their sexuality, if you know what I mean... But I'm sure the show never went that far.

Didn't he date another character who was in high school and also had Down's Syndrome? I vaguely recall an episode where they went to a drive-in theater, did a line of blow, and then she took Corky's virginity

Yes Corky dated a young lady that also had downs her name was Amanda on this show but it never showed them in bed together like soap operas do after they had already done it which they have us believe they did it without showing the act of it.

Yes, and they had a kid named Greta.

The actress who played Amanda died last year I believe from pneumonia I think, I am not sure she had COVID.
