silas has blue eyes and nancy has brown, i've looked at the actor who played his dad here on imdb and he seems to have brownish green eyes. wouldn't they have figured out from the beginning that silas wasn't his (even silas should have figured it out if he took high school science)? isn't blue a recessive gene and brown prominent? meaning silas should have had brown eyes?

silas does find out who his bio dad is later in the show. i think it was season 6.

yeah i know, i just read too that one of them could have been a carrier of blue and somehow it just came out in silas. so my argument is null and void anyway. oh well. i suck at biology i guess! lol.
