    Zoe is 16 Philomon is 27, did the writers not notice or just not care?

    in the UK it wouldn't be a problem but doesn't that make her jail-bate state side?

    Perhaps it escaped your notice, but Caprica isn't set in the States.

            Yeah, the colossal landmass that's home to many films and most sci-fi series that lays directly north of the Americans is really easy to miss.

              I don't mean literally but it is pretty common for people in Britain to just assume "north american ascent" = "USA"
              there's a Canadian comedian called Tom Stade who talks about it in his act
              "home to many films and most sci-fi series" to be fair most of those are set in the USA

                  Well technically a 10 year old could also be consenting...But I'm just using an extreme example.

                        A ten year old likely wouldnt fully understand what its consenting two.

                          I think most sci-fi is filmed in Canada, bar some scenes.

                            And then there's all those places where there's no offense if the parties are within a certain number of years of age, even if one is underage.




                            Looking things up on Wikipedia is haaaaaaaard.

                              There's also the fact that this all took place in a virtual world. In a virtual world where they were killing people for sport, playing Russian Roulette, sex dens, etc. etc. I think her being under age and a computer program are the least of your worries.
                              IMO always implied.
