Strauss? I think she just wanted Emily to rat Hotch out. :lol: I don't even think she really gave a damn about what she did with Emily after she got rid of Hotch. I think she was going to help Emily move up in the FBI or something, or at least that was her reasoning for why Emily should help her. Whether or not all Emily would get is an ID tag that actually reads "SSA" instead of just "SA" is a whole other debate.
I think they said 30 in Penelope. I may be wrong, though. Reid was, like, 23 or something like that in season one, so I'd guess that he's about 27 now. JJ was about 27 in S1, so she's probably around 31. Hotch is... 43, I think is what was in Nameless, Faceless. Emily's probably 39 or 40 if we go by Paget's age. Also, the year she graduated high school was, I think, mentioned in Tabula Rasa. Add to that fact that when Reid randomly decides to tell when her birthday is (forgot the episode title again), it sounds like he goes "197..." and is then cut off by Emily before he can reveal how old she is, and she's 39 or 40. (That "197..." thing was probably the first time that I've been mad at Emily, legitimately. I want to know how old she is, and I was so close.) (Although if we try to work out Hotch's timeline her age goes completely I-have-no-freaking-clue since he was working for her mother while she was in college and I doubt Hotch was working a security detail at 23 unless he was a kid genius like Reid.) If I had to guess, Rossi's probably about 52, 53. Morgan's mid 30s, maybe about 35 or 36.
Going back and re-reading that, I suppose it can be summed up as: "I wish they would randomly show everyone's birth certificates." :lol:
