Emily Sullivan-Prowse is a character on the US post-apocalyptic drama Jericho. She is played by Ashley Scott. Template:Spoiler In the pilot episode, it is revealed that Emily is an old friend of the pivotal character Jake Green (Skeet Ulrich) and that a falling out has happened between them, hinting at a previous and deeper relationship. It is ultimately revealed in episode nine that Jake and Emily were once engaged. Later episodes reveal this falling out to be due to the death of Emily's brother Chris during what appears to have been a botched robbery attempt. Jake was supposed to be Chris' lookout, but for reasons unknown, he refused.

Emily is estranged from her father, Jonah Prowse. This estrangement is also due to Chris' death. Jonah ordered Chris, Jake, and Mitch Cafferty to carry out the robbery. Emily regards her father as nothing but a thief, and wants no kind of relationship with him, although they do appear to reconcile to some degree after a brief heart-to-heart talk at the end of episode eleven.

She becomes the last main character to become aware of the events at Denver, Colorado when she is picked up by two escaped convicts posing as sheriff's deputies. Jake eventually rescues Emily from the two prisoners, and they take shelter in a friend's storm cellar as a rainstorm apparently laden with radioactive fallout hits the town.

In episode ten, she stole a generator from her father's compound, returning it to the town of Jericho.

Emily has a fiancé, Roger,who she was planning to pick up at the airport in Wichita, Kansas at the time the attack happened. It is revealed in the third episode that his plane landed safely in a field north of Kansas, and that he may have survived, but his fate is uncertain until the eleventh episode, when he is discovered among a group of people arriving in the town.

Like Heather Lisinski, Emily is a schoolteacher in Jericho; including being the Social Studies teacher to Dale Turner's class. She lives in "The Pines," in a house being paid for in part by her fiancé, who is in banking. Despite the arrival of Roger in the town, a love triangle exists between Emily, Heather, and Jake.
