Same. Obviously Eleven is an experiment but is she the only experiment and if she is the only one, then why her?

yeah im not sure if he really is her father, and is just more of the person that raised her in that place and brainwashed her from when she was very little.

I want to believe there has to be others! It'll make the show more interesting.

One Thing Remains

I think there are others. Eleven was just the first successful one. I think there's a least 1-10 and possible 12+
