pbd.notlong.com — Thanks to the detective work of White Cleats, it looks like we've broken the code to Michael's secret message hidden in Sara's origami swam. It's similar to a type of encryption called substitution cipher, each dot series represents a number. Once they're written out as such, if you add them in a column you get 9755867655, aka (975) 586-7655.

(Disclaimer: I work for TV Squad)I did a post about this, and a commenter came back with the best theory on those dots so far: <a class="user" href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/08/22/hidden-messages-on-prison-break/#c1975275">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/08/22/hidden-messages-on-prison-break/#c1975275</a>The dots are prison tap code.Just take a look at the wiki page for it @ <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_Code">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_Code</a> and it'll spring an "ah hah!" moment. I really think that phone number theory is bunk.

I don't know how Tap Code brings an "ah hah!" moment - all it brings me is:MGINIRFLGMHCLFDoesn't look like there is nearly enough vowels in there to make words out of it. I've stared at it for a bit, but I can't find anything.Knowing Prison Break it will be encoded into morse code and then that is decoded into tap code, then it will be spell something. Man, I love this show - can't wait for Mondays.

I called it and it's not connected.I love the depth that goes into LOST (or I used to, now it's kinda redundant) so I would have liked to see Prison Break have the same sort of depth (or at least half or less); I.E. Michael leaving a voicemail answer messege to that number.Unless of course, those dots don't mean that number and this isn't right.

Maybe it's a bank account number where they are going to store all that money they hope to find.

You read this digg, but not the one that showed you how to download the episode for free?

Pplus -- Where the hell are you seeing the phone number shown on the show? Did you watch the show? The link says a credit card statement is shown earlier in the episode that shows Michael paid for a voicemail service -- it does not show the phone number for that service. The poster is assuming that the phone number he came up with will be to dial that service. I call B.S.

I Think I solved the origami Dot Puzzle.. If you look at the nmber sara got in the origami she recieved in the mail and use it as the legend for the dots..( as if you were sending a text message you acctually get somthing.. EXAMPLEthe number she got in the mail is : 736 339 8687the dots in the first line are: 3221243324... so if yo use 3 (...) Taps in the number 7 in on a cell phone to write you get letter R... If you keep the sequence the first line of dots spells the word RENDEZVOUS... try it... The thing is the 2nd and third line dont make a sence:2nd line spells: SEND FW UNVP3rd line spells: (and makes no scence at all) QFMFFWUMI'LL keep trying... if some one finds something let me know

Well i read this somewhere....Mankekeke came the closest....How to decode the dotted crane message. 7 3 6 3 3 9 8 6 8 7 = "Phone number" Michael gave Sara on the crane. ... .. .. . .. .... ... ... .. .... = First line of dots on the crane from Ep 201. 3 2 2 1 2 4 3 3 2 4 = The dots, converted to numbers. 7 3 6 3 3 9 8 6 8 7 = Numbers on a phone key pad 3 2 2 1 2 4 3 3 2 4 = Letters for each number above it. For example, (7, 3). The third letter on the number 7 is R. Then (3, 2). The second letter on number three is E. Following this pattern, the first line of the dots combined with the new phone number spells out... "R E N D E Z V O U S" - which is French for "meeting" or "get together". We did the same thing for the phone number given on the 9/25 episode which gave us the message "SUNDOWN HOT" and from a special source, we have learned that the last set of #s is 35445266 which gives the message "ELGILANM" spaced out correctly, the message is - "Rendezvous - Sundown Hotel - Gila, NM{Note: Was not solved by me :) }
