Quantum Leap is well into Season 2 at this point, but some fans are still reeling from the massive reveal that kicked the season off. While few were surprised that Ben didn't make it back home, it was a shock to learn he'd been missing for three years following the Season 1 finale, and was presumed dead. When Ben finally returned, he discovered that much had changed in his absence, such as ex-fiancé Addison having a new boyfriend. Now, weeks after the reveal, the showrunner explained the logic behind that big breakup to CinemaBlend, as well as how it "deepens" Season 2.
