1. A code three account is some special account that is used by the firm (a bank or institution) and nobody else. It is fictitious and used only in this story. 2. "one seventy-five to one eighty-five" refers to weight in pounds 3. A Pen number can mean Personal Education Number or Personal Entry Number. 4. Try saying "FBI" as a word instead of each letter as part of an abbreviation. It would be pronounced "fibbee" = FBI as a word.
