Time-line help?

Contains spoilers for "100"

Do we know the date of Haley's death? And how long she was in hiding?

The summer hiatus is confusing me...was Hotch stabbed by Foyet in the spring or fall?

Thank you for any help you can give me!

The season 4 finale ended the night before Season 5 began. And episode 502 was a month after 501. My guess is Haley was in hiding for about 2 months. I dunno, if its one thing CM writers suck at it's backstory and coherent timelines.

Let's not forget Jack's 4th birthday took place/was referenced in episode 503 (Hotch watched a video taken on Jack's birthday). Which would suggest that 503 takes place in fall, his being born in 107.

I think that just 2 months in hiding are too short a timeframe, given that 8 episodes, including 509, have then to fit into a time frame of 1 month (as said before 502 takes place 5 weeks after Hotch was stabbed, and Haley & Jack went into hiding at the end of 501)
