Is it something like Paul talking to Achilles? 

I'm hoping Carla writes a tell-all book.  "Carla ate all my melba toast."

She was sobbing when Mrs. Blankenship died.  She knew Don didn't want to acknowledge his birthday.  Love her.

"oh everyone hates me at work ( of course they do. Have you ever had to work with bosses wife? It's hell) and I shouldn't come to the office with you. (Correct)"

I just took that as a callback that she always was put off that Don never hounded after her as she remarked on early in the series, tonight she lit-up like a firefly when he said "i don't care how buxom his mother is".  And she just ate up Roger's attention.  She has really been missing the adoration away on leave.

It seemed like a twist under duress.  "I wish I could get overtime for it, like we have nothing better to do."  I love Peggy.

I'm hopeless with languages, I'm just tickled to hear Jessica Pare call the baby a little cabbage in English.

No, I meant to say it's not the first time I'm heard *the* name pronounced both ways, it's the first time I noticed *her* name pronounced that way.  (I grew up watching Little House On the Prairie.)

No, of course she didn't deserve for Harry to say that in the office, but as you say, it's what "you" do.  She certainly inspired it (not in the office but an extension of it).  Sexual harrassment means you shouldn't be subjected to that, I think it requires a certain level of decorum on both sides.  Her behavior is

@garrison Don't say I'm not basing my interpretation of Megan's character on anything she's done or said.  We're clearly experiencing the show through different perspectives.

I need to believe he didn't tell her, but he seems to have lost his mind,

Of course Don didn't think he was insulting her, but Peggy was at first bewildered and then Joan explained it to her because Joan totally called it.

You made it clear you think Megan's tits "won the day". There's a spectrum here from Joan telling Peggy to stop dressing like a little girl if she wants to be taken seriously, and the men not taking Joan seriously because of the way she dresses, and then Megan.

@garrison No, as an employee, she didn't need to know, but entering into a relationship with her, it was something that had already been broached somewhat.

I just heard Jon Hamm somewhere saying that the ending scene last season of him staring at the ceiling was him wondering what the hell he had just done.  I really expected them to zag away from the expected, but they went ahead and zigged.

I enjoy him, and his horizontally-striped polo shirts.  They make men's chests look broad.

I think that the support pillar was a metaphor for Pete keeping the whole business afloat.

Joan was being modest and charming.  Megan came across as a cross between Marilyn Monroe singing Happy Birthday and the performances you're subjected to by the kids of your host.

I guess women recognize other women's game-playing.  Or some of us do or don't, male and female alike, depending on personal experience.

I'm talking about all the speculation that they were going to fast-forward and Megan would already be history.  The way they are having Don follow in Roger's footsteps, and with Jane being suicidal after they got married, it seemed to be something they were alluding to, but turned out to be a red herring.
