Her father has never been referred to in any way. She graduated from Yale before joining the FBI, and had worked for ten years before coming to the Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU).

Her appearance surprised both SSA Aaron Hotchner and Jason Gideon, as neither supervisor had signed off on the transfer. Hotchner was immediately suspicious of the new agent, but Prentiss, insisting that her mother had not pulled any strings for her to get the assignment, convinced him to let her join the team on a probationary basis, and eventually proved her competence and gained the team's trust. Prentiss confided to David Rossi that during her mother's diplomatic posting in Italy, she got pregnant at 15 and had an abortion. Though Prentiss does not explicitly state whether she struggled with her decision afterwards, she expressed a lot of grief and sorrow when recounting the past events. She also states that the friend who accompanied her to the clinic "saved () life".〔"Demonology", Season 4 Episode 17〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emily Prentiss」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
