Thanks to Tom for the following.

Don't know if you guys have this. Screen-cap from the first video. Possible cash location/flightpath calculations Sam was working on??

It looks very similar to the image overlaying Sam's desk - the two columns of numbers are different, though.

Sorry about the typo. That should of course be:

interesting that all of those coordinates consist of the digits 1, 5, and 8, with the exception of the circled entry in the second column.

does that say lat above the 81.815 that is circled? 81 degrees lattitude? 81 N is over Greenland and 81 S is in Antartica. That can't be right. I must be reading it wrong.

it actually looks like 81.8+51

I used the left column as latitude and the right as longitude and input the numbers into Google Earth. 3 of the locations are over the eastern Atlantic Ocean and the fourth is over western Africa.

How would Tom know the numbers???

What's more interesting is the map right above that Post-It note, where Sam is apparently studying the Mediterranean Sea, with cryptic words like WARM, VERY WARM and HIGH written on, respectively, Gibraltar, Turkey and the Black Sea.
