John Scott’s lab – access 112400

Easter Eggs | Fringe - 101 Pilot | Symbols & Glyphs | Posted by Scully

At the end of the episode, you see John Scott being wheeled into a lab of some sort. When the orderly placed his hand on the panel you can see an access code appear…the number is 112400

Gene ID: 112400

Species

Species: Rattus norvegicus…Selective breeding of these rats has produced the laboratory rat, an important model organism in biological research. It is the most successful mammal on the planet, other than humans.

Is this possibly a reference to John Scott being a lab rat?

    I looked up the Gene ID 114200. Quote from Invitrogen – LINEA Genes, gene card Nrg1:
    ===
    Species: Rattus norvegicus
    Gene Definition: neuregulin 1
    Gene Symbol: Nrg1
    Gene ID: 112400
    UniGeneID: Rn.37438
    Summary: ligand for Erbb3 and Erbb4 receptors; gene produces many different alternative splicing isoforms; involved in neural and organ development [RGD].
    ===

    The last sentence is perhaps most intriguing…

    Neural development? How interesting, since it is the room where they took John Scott. Maybe MD is regenerating his neural pathways, and that is how they are accessing his memories. This might explain why they only have six hours after death to hook him up.

    up every number in the chain is the sum all the others before it, then it break down… but then again, 00 is 8 on it’s side, in a way.
