Now that this is cleared up, I want to know...had the writers known what a stir the tattoo caused (cuz yeah, we're the crazy fans who overanalyze everything), would they have covered up the tattoo when shooting scenes with a shirtless Sam?

Who knows? I'm sure they're more than capable of coming up with a good back story for it. Sam's life didn't start the day McNally tackled him, and they've decided to ration out what we know about him so there's something new to learn each season.

I don't think so Cythy. They can make a story out of it now and on top of that... it makes sam look all bad ass! lol

Definitely makes him look badass and I agree that they can now create a back story because he did have a life before Andy tackled him in the alley but as they say "hindsight's 20/20" and I was just curious if the writers would have played it differently.

Guess he had to get the bad-ass tattoo to make up for wearing the dress! B)

Thanks for the link of the review sillygyrl! Well it's not too good but I love reading "macho Bass" :D (and yes, usually I hate machos but Ben makes me think unusual things :p his fault )

Here's a little more 'serendipity' with Ben, Rookie Blue & former co-stars.

The women who played his 'sisters' in the Centaur Theatre production, way back in 1997, also appeared in RB

Fiona Highet played Martha, mother of the Noah, in 1.5 "In Broad Daylight"

Waneta Storm was billed as "Madame Celeste" in 2.11 "On the Double", but her part was cut out in the final edit

It's not really serendipity, just the small close-knit acting community in Canada... :D

that role must have been so emotional as an actor for him to get a tattoo in remembrance of it. or his words profoundly creative process for him.

An answer, excellent! Almost ironic how when discussing if the tattoo is really Ben's or not, she said she had a chat with 'Sam'. :lol:

that's an oops - lol but from the Stryker files, when Eric took them on a tour, their trailers are labelled with their character name and not their real names.

Yeah, it's weird for someone in the industry to do that. Maybe she thought the fans would think of him that way. I saw a hilarious twitter exchange between a fan and Shonda Rhymes, the Grey's showrunner. The fan asked if Meredith was a good doctor in real life, and Shonda replied that Meredith is not real. :lol:

Not sure about that, but I do know that it was Ben's idea, and that Tassie wasn't in on the decision for Sam to add an earring for pretending to be what's his name because she was out on maternity leave.

It looks like his ear has been pierced before. I just assumed the earring was a pierced one.
:dunno:

I was watching (not for the first time B) ) 2.13 on iTunes, HD, and you can definitely see a hole in Ben's left ear when Brennan starts water-boarding him on the floor. Maybe he got it for an earlier role, or wore/wears it in his private life?

@Leona1991, you mention no tattoo in 2.11? You can definitely see it at the beginning of the love scene when he first removes his shirt (before they move to the bed) :wub:
