interviewed the cast and crew, breaking down some ofIn the two-part episode “Time Stands Still,” Jimmy gets shot in the back by a student who’d been severely bullied throughout the season. The incident lands Jimmy in a wheelchair, which led to groundbreaking plots about living with a disability. Drake, however, was apparently unsure about the narrative.

Hurst then held a meeting with Drake, where the rapper denied having any knowledge of the paperwork. But he later admitted to being uncomfortable with his character's condition, because his friends bullied him about it. According to Hurst, Drake said, “All my friends in the rap game say I’m soft because I’m in a wheelchair.”

The writer fired back, saying, “Tell your friends in the rap game that you got shot. How much harder can you get?” Somehow, that actually worked, and Drake signed on for another season. “He was so nice and apologetic about everything,” Hurst recalled, “he instantly backed down.” “I was very passionate about it,” the writer continued, “I said, ‘Aubrey, there’s some kid somewhere in a wheelchair, who’s completely ignored, who’s never on television, never gets represented. I need you to represent this person. You’re the coolest kid on the show, and you can say there’s nothing wrong with being in a wheelchair.
