Gaff, the moustached Blade Runner who was a constant pain in Deckard's backside in the original Blade Runner, shows up for a brief cameo in the sequel.

Edward James Olmos reprises his role for a fan-pleasing few minutes, and that happens to be just enough time to built a papery Easter egg for K.

Gaff is seen fiddling with something under the table, which turns out to be an origami sheep he was crafting while chatting with Ryan Gosling's character.

Not only is this a call-back to his origami skills from the original, it's a nod to the novel Blade Runner is based on - Philip K Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.
