I think the shower scene isn't flipped but the pic for the UB fight is flipped. You can see her marriage tattoo is on the wrong arm. It didn't air like that.
I've always wondered why they flipped things in Scar. It bugs the heck out of me, especially since there's flashing back to fooling around on Caprica with Sam and that isn't flipped so her band aids are jumping around.
Ah yes, you are right. The whole frakkery with her tattoos is silly. Just show them and be done with it. I don't understand television, so I don't know why they'd flip a shot. What is the purpose.
I get why they didn't want to show a cross tattoo since that's monotheistic. You could explain it away that it means something else in the Colonies but then we'd probably complain about that too. I think having an overlay that brings it in line with the world was a better idea than trying to use make up and band aids to cover it.
I don't know anything about television except how to watch it so I have no idea why they'd flip. I might have to spend osme time rewatching Scar to see if I can figure it out. ;-)
Well I think they covered it because it is a Catholic cross. Interestingly they just used makeup in final cut rather than bandages. And I guess she got the pyramid one on new caprica too. Gives me tiny fic bunnies. Heh.
