youronlyone, I'm not sure if anyone noticed it, but #QuantumLeap (2022) s02e05 showed a background character on a wheelchair working for the Quantum Leap project.
It's very rare to see #PWD (#PersonWithDisability) in episodes unless they'll be given a dialogue.
Background characters, or “extras”, don't have to be always the neurotypical or able-bodied people. We could use all the help financially, too. ^_~
In any case, I don't know the story of this scene, it could be he is part of the production team; or a big fan who happened to visit the filming set. Regardless, I do think it's a good thing they did this.
