Except we know shes not 22 (see above).

So … that narrows it down.

In the third episode of season two, Emily celebrates her birthday.

That is the point of the whole episode.

So youd think they would make it really, super obvious WHAT birthday it is.

But they do not!

Emily tells Mindy, Its a nothing year, so I didnt really feel like celebrating.

This means we can officially rule out: 21, 25, 30.

Then she calls Camille to invite her; again, nobody exchanges information about ages.

Then Emily invites the entire office to her birthday dinner.

(I just feel like theres somethingabout28, you know?

Like youre really not in yourmid-20sanymore.

Its a completely different stage of life!)

Also, Emilys outfit would suggest that she is, like, 9 years old.

As a birthday gift, Camille brings Emily to the hammam with all her friends.

Do any of these friends ask Emily what birthday it is?

Perhaps this is meant as a commentary on the American obsession with youth and the French acceptance of age.

Or maybe this show is torturing me for kicks.

Emily changes outfits, and you know what that means: A new day has dawned.

Happy Birthday @emilyinparis.

So now we know Emily is supposed to be 29 years old.

even more illogical than they already are.

Alas, my viewership of this program is anything but casual!
