Now you've got it.

Yeah; and her husband is exactly the kind of jerk that a person like that would end up with.

@cub You see me exposed as a fool.

@bradwestness:disqus I know. I just meant in the context of a Draper client presentation. What's on the boards? Just the package.

I'd agree, except that there doesn't seem to be anything in Megan's wiring that indicates any awareness that she's "allowed" to do anything untoward. (Okay, maybe stealing her friend's lead at the end of season 5; and maybe seducing Don in his office by claiming to be interested in "the work"…but still. She's so damn…

You seem a little confused about how art works. What you're regarding as some kind of trick or cheat is, actually, the main armature of narrative. Take any good college-level English Lit class and you'll be formally introduced to each of the elements you're disdaining; they're the fundamentals of literary fiction…

@avclub-6ca57d2774f04ac8acf3d2b10f0338f4:disqus I mean Sinatra. Pal Joey.

There's never been the slightest indication that she doesn't totally know the score with Bob.

Now that the season's over, I feel vindicated in my ongoing defense of it.

Yeah, but in six seasons' worth of opportunities they have never gotten Chayefsky-didactic about it. It's wonderful.

Various props include little easels with ads on them.

Especially since it's just another advertising double-entendre.  (About English Leather, not Chanel, but still.)

Well, the fact that he's played by Jon Hamm (who could pull off that Sinatra "sidelong-in-a-hat" glance, making it look like a vintage GQ page) didn't hurt.

I'm a little confused. Did he drive them all the way to Kentucky?

Acquiescing to Ted and locking the door was a decision. Getting dressed like that and waving the red flag at the matador was a decision. She's playing it a little too cute.
