Only one tattoo on Jaimie Alexander's 'Blindspot' character is real - here's what it means

There are more than 200 tattoos painted on Jaimie Alexander's body for NBC's "Blindspot," but just one is real.

Every tattoo will serve as the center of an episode (there are enough for 10 seasons), except the real one. So, Alexander is actually able to speak about it without fear of giving out any spoilers.

So, which one is it?

It's the tattoo of the letters "ES" on her left wrist. According to the actress, it keeps her from becoming too stuck in her own ways.

"It's something I used to say as a little kid," Alexander told USA Today. "I never used to say, 'I love you.' I would mouth, 'Elephant Shoe.' If you mouth it, it looks like you're saying, 'I love you.' For me, it's just one of those things that reminds me to be childlike and sort of look at the world through innocent eyes and just to be openminded."

That frame of mind seems to be working for her. From ABC Family's "Kyle XY" to the "Thor" movie franchise, and now "Blindspot," she is having a good run.

By the way, Alexander has eight other tattoos that are covered for the show in a painstaking seven-and-a-half-hour process.
