So what about 10033? Could Jonas be 10033? I don't remember seeing a picture of him.

I don't think Jonas could be brother

Brother came to the rescue in Human ransom. All three of them were there when he rescued them...

Bree is taken from them when Jonas is 3 (he would not remember). Due to the fact that she is special yada yada yada. Jonas parents, not very happy with the situation become anti-order, down with the babysnatchers and stuff. They may even inform Jonas that he has a sister somewhere. The order kidnaps Jonas's parents as they are sailing. You wouldn't want to kill what made such an excellent offspring. They make Jonas and others think they are dead. All covered up nice and pretty.

Keep in mind friends this was only speculation, thank you.
That's pretty much my theory as well. Great minds... :D

Exactly. It's been done. At least be a little more original, Creators.

I'm completely with you. Bree and Jonas being siblings is far too predictable and frankly a boring idea. It's been done and it seems like way too easy of a way out of the hormone love fest that these three teenagers are involved in.

Not necessarily:

You are right that the sibling idea has been done to death, especially since "Star Wars" - but if they were to put a spin like this on it, it could be very interesting. If it were done in a mature and sensitive manner, it could give them a chance to actually explore something in the real world we're not always capable of talking about (which is one of the greatest properties of fiction, in my opinion), and say something meaningful.

I'm just not sure if they can expect the majority of the audience to be willing to humor them were they to try it. Given their financial situation, I guess they probably don't want to do anything that may be likely to lead to segments of the audience walking off in a huff, but I think - if they decide to go the sibling route - it would give them a great opportunity to do something special with it and maybe speak to people a little more.
