Hm, good point about him not getting a blood transfusion in the ambulance! I was thinking more in terms of the ambulance ride contradicting my idea that they would avoid the regular medical system—but you're absolutely right, he wouldn't have called the ambulance himself.
I think they're the children of some other, human-like race who were implanted into woman (what a horrifying thought) to save the other-race's species from a cataclysmic war.
That is actually as good a theory as any that I've seen or thought of!
The clue that I can't quite make sense of is that the blue sparkles in the jar in the alien-planet scene at the end of S1 look just like the blue sparkles that transfer from Vanya to Harlan in S2. (And it's a similar blue to the one associated with all of their superpowers.)
But I don't get any sense that Reginald himself is behind the mysterious births; he was on Earth for something like a century before they happened, and my impression is that when he did manage to adopt seven of the mysteriously-born children, he didn't quite know what he was getting himself in for. Otherwise why would he have done so much experimenting on them?
