Actually, if you've just seen The Man From the Other Side, then you're only one episode behind.

That's a good catch with the Fibonacci Sequence. Second time they've used it. :)

They are not Fibonacci numbers. Wikipedia has a nice explanation of the numbers and a list of the first few.

Yep, this is not Fibonacci . The next number is a sum of the previous two. So if it was 80 110 190 it would be Fibonacci sequence like, but you have to start the sequence at 0 and 1, I think.

They're not prime numbers either. They're all divisible by two (in addition to a slough of other numbers).
