Emilia's suspicions

In act 4, Scene 2, Emilia tells Desdemona that "I will be hanged if some eternal villain...to get some office,/Have not devised this slander." Does she realize Iago's plan, since she says that someone devised this plan to get some office (position). If so, is she giving Desdemona a big clue here by saying it? Or does Emilia not realize that Iago is creating this exact plan she is thinking of?

  1. So either she's in on it, or suspects it, or is as in the dark as everyone else--except for us!
