"There's an airplane here to see you!"

Maybe that's what the ubiquitous Bob Benson does when he's not being an annoying suck-up type and sending out platters.

Perhaps what Cooper is trying to say is that people still have a strong affinity with the Democrats because of JFK, even though he has been dead for over four years. I noticed in the season premiere that there was a framed picture of JFK on the wall in Peggy's apartment.

I've started to thnk this show might go the 'Putney Swope' route, ending with Dawn taking over the agency, firing all the white people and replacing them with black revolutionary types.

The way Don mentions 'used cars' to Herb at the meeting was done as if to say 'You are nothing more than a sleazy, hustling used car salesman from Jersey who somehow lucked into selling high-end luxury cars'. Classic!

The writing was on the wall…literally.  In the scene where Bob Benson was trailing Don out of the elevator in the premiere, they walked through the reception area and the square logo with the letters 'SCDP' was prominent.  Rebranding is a hassle, probably best to avoid it.

I thought it was the opposite, such as in an episode early in season five when they are in the car returning from the dinner party at Peter and Trudy's house and Don is drunk and coming on to Megan, saying "Let's make a baby together". Though, Megan would have been less inclined, due to her Television career taking

Also, with regards to the dominatrix behavior, there was the prostitute from Season Four, whom he regularly paid to slap him silly.

The difference between Don and Pete is that Don effortlessly attracts women, and if they do resist him, it is ultimately futile. Don is smooth, women are drawn to him.  Pete on the other hand, comes on all pesky and zealously pursues women to the point of harassment, until they give in (think Peggy, Beth, German au

'Director of Agency Operations', but now with all the perks of a partner.

Yeah, with regards to the current housekeeper, she left the balcony door open when Don and Megan went to Hawaii, and snow stained the white carpet.  Don groaned something about taking the cleaning cost out her wages.

When Betty opens the desk draw and finds the 'Dick Whitman box' in season two, and confronts Don about it, Don explains who the people in the photos are and says that "Uncle Mac" was "kind to me".

There was one in the first season when Don falls down the stairs at home (on Fathers Day?), and has a flashback, remembering his brother Adam being born (this around the time Adam showed up at Sterling Cooper) with him looking into a room and his stepmother saying something like 'I'm naming him Adam, like the first

It's become apparent that Trudy has acquiesed to Pete's philandering so long as it was well away from the family home, but what she didn't abide was having the collateral damage land on her doorstep. Pete 'shat where he ate' so to speak, and that is what brought about Trudy's scornful reaction.

Don called Betty a whore when she told him she was shacking up with Henry Francis.

Henry Francis is to 'Mad Men' what Johnny Sack was to 'The Sopranos'

If fear doesn't work, she could just fire them, like she did that freelancer who drew the crude cartoon of Joan and Lane.

Trudy is a Martha Stewart in the making.

The "P" stands for "Pimp" (as in "Grimy Little…")

You are right, especially when you consider how SCDP made contact with Heinz in the first place back in season four, when Don persuaded Dr. Faye Miller to divulge confidential information she knew from working at rival agencies.
