Not sure what you mean by "eye thing". Related to the eye maker who leads them to Sebastion?

I was really just pointing out that the unicorn scene is (I believe) completely missing in the theatrical version, which sorta precludes any connection between that and Gaff's unicorn origami.

According to Ridley Scott, every replicant in Blade Runner has a "cat eye" flash upon light. google "owl blade runner" and know that every replicant in it - Pris, Rachel, Roy, the owl, Zhora, all of them, including Deckerd - show cat eyes at some point. However, there's a shot in the Final Cut where Deckerd most assuredly is not flashing a cat eye. It doesn't exactly cement things.

The unicorn "scene" is missing in the theatrical version, but Gaff makes an origami Unicorn shortly before the voiceover talks about how "unique" Rachel is. Ridley cut some footage from Legend back into the film when he got to do his "director's Cut."
