Here we go. I've listed all the "subtext scenes" from our favourite couple.
I will start with Season 2, than Season 3, 4 and 5.
SEASON 2
2x09- The Last Word
Emily Prentiss's first appearance at the BAU - meetings with Hotch at the beginning and end of the episode. In the initial meeting, Hotch realizes that he knows Emily through her mother, and he inquires about her work and her parents. When she tells him she is due to being working with the BAU, he becomes cold and blunt with her, and says he never authorized her transfer to his unit. Undeterred, Emily waits for him in his office to meet him after a case, and convinces him to (reluctantly) give her a chance to work
with the team.
2x11- Sex, Birth, Death
Hotch observes Emily affectionately greeting a Congresswoman (who had asked him to keep a case about a series of murders quiet for political reasons) in the bullpen; Hotch later rebukes Emily at a crime scene for asking him about his meeting with the Congresswoman; Hotch and Emily have a confrontational meeting in his office, after which the air is cleared and their relationship begins to improve.
2x14- The Big Game
The team are enjoying a rare night out at an Irish pub, 'The Auld Dubliner'. Emily is talking with Hotch and Hotch's then wife, Haley, and buys them drinks. Haley asks Emily how she's getting on working with the BAU. Hotch cuts in and says 'she means am I being nice to you.'
2x15- Revelations
Hotch asks the team what his worst traits are, and Emily says she thinks that he trusts men more than women. In another scene, JJ comments that nothing seems to rattle Emily - she keeps calm when everything is falling apart. Hotch joins the conversation and agrees with JJ. Emily explains to him that she's good at compartmentalizing.
2x20- Honor among Thieves
Emily's mother, Ambassador Elizabeth Prentiss, asks Hotch (through Emily) and his team for help with a diplomatic case. Hotch agrees. There are some nice little interactions between Hotch and Prentiss in this episode, including a scene in which Emily expresses her relief that a Russian translator has arrived at the BAU office, because her Russian is rusty - her honesty and self-deprecation make Hotch smile.
