 		Well, life style choices notwithstanding, she's not a complete idiot. She did make it through medical school. And the fact that Michael is sending her multiple swans with different out of service numbers has to clue her in on them being something other than just phone numbers. The cipher certainly isnt that hard, and even listening to the radio could give her a clue as to what it is (you know those commericals that go "Call 1800-ILIKEFERRETS or 1800-455-3377"). I won't be surprised if she manages to figure it out at some point. But I do agree that given enough info, Kellerman will figure it out quickly.

 		wiki
I've created a wiki for keeping track of the messages/codes in Prison Break because I constantly found myself flicking between too many different forums/blogs Smile

You can find it at http://finch.pbwiki.com

If you want to contribute then the password you'll need to enter is "bolshoi"

If we keep all these ideas/theories in one place then it'll be a lot easier to solve them before the series does it for us Smile

Maybe she'll try the t9(progressive text) text on her cell, a cell is all she seems to use...?

Also, I never noticed before but on that the map I posted of the coordinates ...look at the National Park's name just north of the star.[/sub]

 		Next Phone Number
I know what the next phone number will be!
Using the dots given on the first origami bird, and the method of decoding the phone numbers, I've worked out what the next phone number will be. Does anyone want to know? Obviously, this has some minor spoilers about what will happen, probably at the end of the season. I'll list it here if anyone's interested.

 		Sigh, no new number tonight.

Episode spoiler:

Note to self:
If my ex-vice presidential candidate father ends up "committing suicide" after his rock solid confirmation plans go up in smoke, and I come home to my apartment and there on the table are syringes and drugs that I did not put there myself...

Just Run.

But not before grabbing the last origami swan that was sent to by the individual that got me into this mess in the first place. Because, mmmm...Wentworth Very Happy.

 		Determining Phone Number
We can probably figure it out!
Since we have the dots already, we can probably figure out what the rest of the message (and therefore the next phone number) will be. The remaining dots are:

2 3 1 3 3 1 2 1

The first 2 numbers are probably for the letters E and L, which would complete the word "HOTEL." Makes sense. If he's giving Sara the name of a hotel, this could be difficult, because it could be pretty much anything. It could be next to impossible for us to figure out. However, we do know what letters we can choose from, because we know they have to be one of the first letters on the keypad, then one of the third letters, etc., etc. So we have these letters to pick from, one from each row in order:

A D G J M P T W
C F I L O R V Y
C F I L O R V Y
A D G J M P T W
B E H K N Q U X
A D G J M P T W

There are only so many words that can be made this way. I kind of like the fact that the word "VODKA" can be spelled with the last 5 rows ("Bolshoi" is the Russian ballet; Bolshoi Booze would be Vodka! Smile ). But that leaves an extra letter at the beginning, so I'm not sure that works. If "Avodka" could be someone's last name, I guess that could work!

Okay, so that leaves us with only 8 digits in the last phone number, when it should be 10. The last two digits will probably be a date for them to meet--maybe the date listed for "Bolshoi Booze" on the europeangoldfinch.net website?

I think the phone number will definitely be 35X-XXX-XX64. We just need to figure out the name of the hotel, if it's even possible to figure out!

My only question is why is the date so late? Wasn't it winter when they broke out? At least, I thought it was winter towards the end of the last season. I'm not sure why it would suddenly be June. Or maybe those aren't dates on the goldfinch website? Ideas, anyone??

 		Hello,

It seems there is a new message on europeangoldfinch.net :
Quote:
As some of you may have noticed, the dates on the site have been a little wonky. I'm still trying to get this whole website stuff down and so far have been unable to fix this. However, a young woman from down the street came by today and was gracious enough to spend some time with me helping get things back on track. I'll be making some other additions to the site (with her help!) in the coming weeks. Also, I've noticed a lot more traffic on the site and am thrilled that all of you are stopping by! Who knew there were so many EGF fans throughout the world!

Maybe it is to make us have a better look to dates that are strange... Note that this message is from 06/01 while in Fish 40 post, we have 6/4. If we have a Month/Year convention, it could mean something will happen in 3 days.

Also there is now a young woman we need to identify. Maybe the main character of a new ARG ? Wink

I liked also the part about the huge trafic Very Happy
