Yeah, but he didn't marry Dr. Faye because she's really gross, and that's the only reason he needed. I get so tired of this. You don't pick out a wife the way you select classes from the college course catalog, in order to "challenge yourself." He was in love with Megan; she's young and pretty and happy and makes him

to tally388, I'm not sure that Dick Whitman's signing his name as "Don Draper" constitutes forgery. It's not like there's some Don Draper credit card he's using or Don Draper bank account he's drawing on (that was established by Anna's husband). After this many years (and after securing Anna's tacit approval), "Don

You have to see past the endlessly strange performance to the character underneath.

Yeah. At first, I was thinking, "Come on, Don" (which would be a very bad Shirelles song) "…you've been in almost exactly this position before; you — of all people — know how people get behind the 8-ball and do sudden, immoral/illegal things that they have to pay for later. So give the man a break."

And then John Travolta has to actually put on his face in order to infiltrate his criminal, embezzling presence at SCDP.

Or Megan would be, if she were around. Something tells me that the marriage's days are numbered.

In a strange kind of way, this episode made me accept the previous episode much more easily. I'm not sure why, but Lane's (thoroughly believable) suicide and Sally and Glenn's "day off" (and the fact that all the adult characters actually managed to regard what the kids had done with the proper sense of perspective

Megan's the whole point. I don't know why so many people have such trouble with it; it seems so basic and obvious (and correct). Don Draper is the protagonist; he was (when we met him) a philandering, married professional success whose dim-bulb trophy wife didn't know who he really was (literally didn't know it). He
