@Monsterzero: Seems we're on the same wavelength. I thought if someone had blue eyes, both parents had to be blue-eyed as well. Either that or Charlie/Sam spent too much time on Arakis.

Actually, two blue eyed parents can have a brown eyed (or green or hazel, yellow, or violet eyed) child. The genetics go far beyond the BB, Bb, bb, bB we learned as kids. Eye color involves more than six gene pairs.
Also, it is now known that tru blue eyes are actually a result of little or no color pigmentation and the blue appearance is a result of light refraction in the clear iris. This is the same reason the sky looks blue. This is also why blue eyed people are more sensitive to UV radiation. On a final note, the percentage of blue eyed people born each year is rapidly declining and blue eyes may soon be an extinct trait.

@dad Concerning blue eyes, go to Utah in the USA, everyone there is white with blue eyes.
If I was Sam, I would have gone with "Girl I had a one night stand with dropped off a child I never knew until now about on my porch"

This little talk on genetics has been quite interesting, actually. However it doesn't say much for my highschool biology classes.
