I have to agree that it seems surprising. But, only because, in this country, I would expect the majority (so, statistically speaking, that would probably include producers of the show) to react with exaggerated offense at the idea. So, I'm surprised that someone in a position of authority on the show didn't say "we can't do that!".
"Anyway, he also said he thought it was inappropriate for a girl of that age to be on a set surrounded by adults with some stranger's hands on her bare chest and her shirt wide open when it wasn't necessary for the scene."
Why? In what way is that situation going to cause any actual harm to someone? Is the other actor really that likely to try to feel her up while surrounded by an entire TV crew?

I said it didn't add anything dramatically; I didn't say anything about verisimilitude. You can give up some of the latter when it' s not necessary for the former. It's a story after all, not a simulation of reality.

You're crazy, but I do believe you are right, regardless.
Slips happen all the time, law of averages and all. That it wasn't caught just means the perverts were the ones doing the editing. Meanwhile, back in IL, the one guy caught it.
Will the extremists now get this ep. classified as kiddie porn and owning it a federal offense?

FWIW, I was a bit surprised myself when I saw this one.

Well, that wouldn't necessarily be true for everyone, though. I mean, I'm assuming they at least asked her if she was okay with it.
