secret passwords

I've decided that it happens in enough movies that everyone should have at least one of these, a secret password, that is. Like, if you're kidnapped and the kidnapper tells you to call your parents or your wife or whatever, and tell them that everything is ok, but you want to tell them to get the police and try to come find you. Everyone should have a predesignated password for situations like these. I was thinking that we could use "130", but that's not the easiest number to work into conversation.
E.g. Matt:[shaky voice] Everything's fine Brit, its just these one hundred and thirty bees chasing me that are making all that noise in the background." Now you may have thought that would work, but what if my wife sent beekeepers instead of police? I have no doubt that beekeepers would have a difficult time overcoming my kidnappers. That is, unless they knew how to control the bees! wow! that's a scary idea.

upon futher consideration, i have decided that the time of day 1:30, would be much easier to work into a conversation.

upon even further consideration, i have decided that we need a password for when we actually want to use 130 as a regular word or time, and not the password for being in trouble. In fact maybe we should pick a different password alltogether because we use that number so much in normal conversation with one another.
Just imagine the difficulty we would have meeting one another for lunch at 1:30.

Let me ease your fears that i'm posting this from a place where I've been kidnapped. the use of 130 hasn't begun yet as my "trouble" password.

It begiinns,

NOW.
