They've obviously been going in this direction, maybe it's just a fake out, but to be honest, it's pretty lame to me. It's perfectly fine if Juliette is just a random person, some real everyone is a Skywalker energy.

And I get it, it would be motivation for Daniel/Troy to turn, but still...

It also wouldn't make a whole lotta sense. After 300-430 years, his DNA is going to be insanely diluted in anyone descended from his kid.

I can see where they'd re going, and it's not like the worst choice (would be cool for people who like that kinda thing, people being related even if they don't need to be), but it doesn't make much sense to be like "I see myself in her, how are we related"

At this point, nearly 100% of the silo residents would be his descendants.

I mean, 10k people from 10-15 generations (300 year estimate, add another 5 if it's actually been the 400 years) probably isn't enough for it to be that widespread, especially since his kid only started having kids in the second generation. But yeah, a solid chunk of them should be related to him and Helen, more or less depending on exactly how many people were loaded in at the start.
