Variations of the term “Asperger’s syndrome” topped Google searches Wednesday, following the second episode of an NBC show featuring a character with the disorder.

“Asperger s disease” and “assburgers syndrome” were the first and third most popular search terms on the internet search engine Wednesday morning.
