Pete's not rich. But I agree with the rest.

Think small.

Those lamenting not seeing SOMEONE, fall from a height can console themselves by picturing Dorothy taking her last dance, then - with help from the human gigolo-shark Manolo Colon - tumbling overboard, from the promenade deck to the sea, where the real sharks were awaitin'.

Joan was wearing her nun look in that scene. High, white frilly collar, black dress.

- The show did NOT make it clear that Joan landed Avon. Last we knew, Peggy was telling Joan, "You'd better hope he calls."

Yep. Yep.  He's the blowhard who asked if anyone had a cough drop, rubbing it in that Roger and Don didn't, after losing Vicks.

Not GREAT, Bob!

What a hater.

Hope he brushed his teeth, too.

Whether SG&P buys Don out or not, he's got it made in the shade financially.  Roger said Don made  $500,000 from the sale of SCDP to PPL alone, and that doesn't account for his other savings, earnings, and investments. Moreover, I don't see Don as an idle guy. Despite his flaky, drunken habits, he does have a work…

But advertising doesn't necessarily have to be lying. Remember the PSA work Don did for the American Cancer Society and Peggy did for Father Gill? And the Volkswagen "Think Small" campaign? If Don truly redeems himself - and stays in the business - he might become more selective about the products he pushes and…

Vroom, vroom around the lobby.  Didn't Charlie Sheen do something like that in some ad, in which he was wearing a prison ankle bracelet?

@Mexican Blade Runner: Precisely.  I'd also addressed that (above).  Bob got to stay in yucky Detroit with the boorish, demanding, dangerous, GM guys. Pete got to get away from Bob AND go to La La Land.

@avclub-eb058ced22520c3a8f4e4a6e2fb16403:disqus : I agree with some of your analysis but not with "Jane comes along and does demand the things Joan always thought of herself as too moral to ask for, and gets them all."

I don't think Peggy accused Joan of sleeping her way to the top, nor do I think Peggy knew Joan had slept with Herb in exchange for a partnership. Rather, Joan attacked Peggy with:  "I didn't have Don to carry me to the deep end." Peggy said in self-defense that she, Peggy, didn't sleep her way to the top. Of course,…

Though Janis Joplin didn't release "Bobby McGee" until 1969, this episode so reminded me of that song.  Especially the line: "Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose…"

As was the competitiveness (at least, on Pete's part) about who'd get how much of Dorothy's furniture. Pete preferred giving it to Trudy of the wealthy family (who neither wanted nor needed it) over letting his less-well-heeled brother Bud have it.

@facebook-1789012451:disqus , RE: Brooks - "he's obviously a fool! 1) He married Margaret, and 2) Just look at him standing there. Fool."

Isn't that exactly what Glen Bishop did, when lashing out at Betty Bam-a-Lam?
