Don't forget Marie-France's multiple children (to whom both Megan and Marie have alluded), v. Marie's having stopped at two and Megan's having opted to remain childless.

Didn't the dark hair and crucifix necklace remind you of Sylvia Rosen?

Suave-ay Bolla!

Peggy would beg to differ. (Remember what she told Joan in the elevator, last week?)

See Duck Phillips and Ted Chaough and Peggy-the-secretary's move on Don Draper, which Don swiftly and sternly rebuffed.

Isn't it, Don's "a VALUABLE piece of horseflesh"?

So in a way, Don/Jon and Rachel/Maggie did sort of have a child together.

Not sure Joan would have fared as well on her own; without poker-faced Peggy. Remember how Joan called out that business professor (even though she later learned she'd misinterpreted his statement)?

Let's not forget: a key reason why Don made the shiva call was to learn how Rachel had died.

What rawbun said. It's also possible the salesgirl's colleagues told her who Joan was.

Doesn't explain his ability to dream or have "visitations" from dead people before he knows they've died (e.g., his brother, Anna, Rachel).

Doubtful. Ken's wife said he gave his eye for that job.'

I thought Di evoked memories of a LOT of brunettes from Don's past, including women in the brothel (who would at that point be older than Don). That's why, I think, Don remained sitting at the counter, even after Di had told him their assignation was a one-shot deal (he felt more at home there than he did elsewhere,…

He and Elaine May also appeared in some iconic ads, e.g., for Narragansett Beer.

Yep. And soon after that, she jumps ship to work for Ted Chaough, which forces Don to finally respect and fully appreciate her.

Of COURSE they are, Thomas R! The Last Supper (Jesus' last meal on Thursday, before being arrested, tried, tortured, crucified, and on Easter Sunday resurrected), was a Passover seder.

I think the waitress reminded Don of many of his past, brunette love interests, in addition to the hookers he grew up with.

"Cook" me a chocolate one, Ray.

RE: "Ken’s father-in-law is quite proud of himself for making a Pop-Tart."

I love the symbolism associated with Robert's old black truck.
