@avclub-382244fee17774590b496d89418029a7:disqus You're overestimating the value of a women's college education in the late 50's for women who look like/have the ambitions of Betty (graduates of women's colleges, please note the qualifiers).

Well, she is like 36 now, I mean, basically dead, right guys?

One of them is more professionally compromising than the other. Plus, she showed promise at one of them. Honestly, I feel like the acting thing was nearly a test she gave him— if she was cool with getting into the biz through commercials, SCDP was pushing for that, for Pete (not-Campbell's) sake!

I think it was all to lead up to Pete being forgotten and having to reflect. The man has no friends or hobbies— this was the only way to get to his internal monologue.

Anyone else see CRAZY ANSWERS in the "Of course I want it, all of my friends would kill for it." "Because they need money. You don't." exchange? I'm starting to think Megan's just a younger version of the first woman we ever saw Don with, the painter/greeting card illustrator/heroin lady.

Duuuuude. No one as compelling as Megan's mom could have produced someone as much like cardboard as Betty.

Just rewatched that season— I believe Betty got pregnant while engaged. She says she only worked 3 or 4 more gigs after Don bought her the coat.
