Don's "i'm fucked" face when he came home to Megan crying with Sylvia was just as good.

I loved young Dick Whitman's Simple Jack haircut.

I don't mind the Don affair IF it gets discovered by either Dr. Rosen or Megan within the next 2 episodes. If not, it's just the Bobbie Barrett affair all over again. Sylvia, guard your cooch!

Roger's a pretty hard drinker himself, so I think Don just needed to explain why he couldn't hold his liquor.

Also, Bert Cooper had a Jump To Conclusions mat in his office.

Oh shit, that was Little Carmine! I thought he looked kinda familiar.

Yeah, but how many times did Tony Soprano fall back on his old habits? I think Roger was conveying one of the main themes of the show, which was that there aren't very many new doorways until you keep doing the same shit over and over again. The experiences may change, but you're always gonna be the same person when…

I felt this episode did a lot of table-setting and foreshadowing.

I might like the analysis of this show than I do the show itself. Reminds me of the end of Lost.

I always thought Don was more pissed off about Megan putting their private shit out in front of a giant group of people. Don's a very private person, and he was grimacing when Megan wanted to show vacation slides. She's just a smidge too public about her outspokenness for his liking.

You really put it all in perspective, @avclub-847a7251b574c85da9c2248125c2df93:disqus .

I thought cc: stood for Chevy Chase.

I liked it better than 1 and 2 but the British people kinda pissed me off. However, in retrospect, it might be kinda fun, knowing what happens to everybody. It definitely has a fantastic back end, starting with the lawnmower incident.

Mmmm, butt paprika.

Yeah, I noticed. As someone who considers the Colin Hanks episodes the worst episodes of the show, I'm hoping that Don stops slipping it in her before Easter 1968.

The "twist" at the end kinda mirrors the twist at the end of the first episode of the series, in that "WTF? Don is married?" Thematically, it was the same, kinda.

Yeah, there kinda need to be new benchmarks that they all aspire to. Most network shows are still trying to pasteurize successful cable dramas. The Mob Doctor is just Sopranos-lite. All the new crop of serial killer shows are ripping off Dexter. Lost influences are slowly waning. I'm sure there are developments to…

Don made a quip about how it smelled like creativity or something. I think the "weed leading to inspiration" just came out of the closed doors of whenever Peggy smoked weed in season whatever and into the lobby.

Thanks, that's what I was looking for.

They need to have that VU song end an episode. Please Mad Men!
