I'm not really sure why this page is here. The machine is a plot point, but it doesn't seem notable for its own article, especially when all of the information can be found on Loose Canon, Mann Manor, and Non-player characters. Also, it's orphaned and uncategorized and has incorrect links, grammatical errors, and one edit, the creation of the page. Tabs 23:50, 28 January 2012 (PST)

For those who think that's the Admin with Mrk IV and V...

First off, Prior to the story, its only been 6 months. Even if the admin looked like that, she would not need the LEM. She's only in her 50's - 60's (smoking makes you look older, as to Helen smokes a lot), the LEM is only designed to keep a person alive longer than a human body would sustain, for that the australium powering it is known to have intensive physical enhancements. Helen is still physically able, as you saw her with the heavy trench coat wear in Blood in the Water.

I'm pretty sure it's Emily because she was the one who had convinced Radigan to build the life extending machines. Regardless whether it's Emily or Elizabeth, it is not the current Administrator. The reason of course for building one for Emily remains unknown, but she does have a reason to stay alive, so there's that. Emily also knows about the metric tons of Australium stored away.

Now I'll admit, Emily was and Administrator, but she retired after the TF2 mercenaries came in (I'm assuming). She shouldn't be called the Administrator otherwise it would cause confusion, not to mention the link led to Helen.

An interesting twist could be that Gray Mann is Emily, but that is debatable. Why do I think the two could be the same person? Well, there are only 5 LEM in existence. Blutarch had Mrk. 1, Redmond had Mrk. 2, Gray has Mrk. 3, and Emily has Mrk. 4 and 5. but only the Conagher ancestry knows about the plans and no one knew about Gray or who built the LEMs (debatable) in the story. Now true, Gray could've built it himself, but BLU Engie would not have known about it. The current LEMs for Emily should've been Mrk. III and IV then. Unless Emily and Dell knew about Gray before anyone else, this theory is the most probable at this point (that I could think of), at least until the story progresses and reveals more information. Though Emily and Gray's physical features are much, much different, let us recall the Disguise kit the Spies own.

Hell, it could even be the BLU spy. Dell was the only BLU member to appear in the story so far. But like I've said, until the story reveals more information.
