Chapter 3

When the baby boy arrives at the family unit, Lily first notices his unusual eye color that are similar to Jonas's eyes which are also pale. In the community, dark eyes are the most common, but there are exceptions like those of Jonas and of a female Five. Jonas does not like the fact that Lily has mentioned his eyes. "No one [mentions] such things; it [is] not a rule, but [is] considered rude to call attention to things that [are] unsettling or different about individuals." Chapter 3. Pg. 20

  2. I dont see where it says that have a connection with each other.. If it is rude to bring attention to the diffrences between people, i wouldnt agree that they have a connection...

  6. Brandon- yes it is good that Jonas' father was honest about that one thing. But what about the other things that they have lied about?

  14. Remember Michah, they can't have the same birth mother if they are born ten years apart! Maybe the same father???

  15. There is definitely some type of a connection, but remember being born into a family that loves you can create connections, you don't have to have the same blood running through your veins. You just need someone to really care about you!

  19. I would love to have diffrent color eyes because I would be unique. When Lily points him out i would have been mad

  20. The baby is Gabe and when it has the same eye as Jonas my class talked about that they might have the same birth father.

  21. The connection in the eyes is to say that they can be the future reciever. The 5 with the same eyes, however, is too old already as she will become a 12 too soon. Thats why at the end Jonas took Gabriel. So he wont end up as the next reciever.
