How did Michael Scofield know where to look for his letters?
In Prison Break season 5 episode 8, Michael, Lincoln and Sheeba come to the house at Ithaca where Sarah and Jacob lives.
After getting off the vehicle, Michael suddenly sees their post box named Ness 1990. Then suddenly Michael leans to the drain alongside the road near post box and says that's why Sarah didn't get any of his letters.
How did he know already to where to look at exactly?
In a flashback scene, after that, it shows that Jacob opens a letter every day and put Michael's signature origami swan into the drain pipe.
But how did Michael know exactly that Jacob did it? It could be numerous reasons Sarah didn't get Michael's letters, or maybe she did get them but didn't have any intention or chance, or doesn't know how to reply to those letters.
Is there anything I missed here or else how did Michael know exactly where to look at the first glance of the post box in front of Sarah's house?
Best Answer
There is no explicit reason given.
However Michael and Jacob operate in a very similar manner, and often come to the same conclusions when given the same parameters to work with. So one possible answer is he checked the drain because that is where he would have thrown them if the situations were reversed.
I think it's also a bit of reference to season 1, whereby Michael in the original season used the origami to figure out the state of the pipes from the medical room. Drain, origami, let's give that another spin.
