His firing Jaguar got to her in a way that went beyond just the loss of the public offering, in my opinion. She said something on her way out of that scene, something like "Honestly, if I could put up with him…" Joan prostituted herself to help the firm win that account, but the account was so unimportant to Don…

I think Roger just really enjoys firing people.

Hi, fellow gummy penis eater!

The funeral happens within a day or two, and then there's a week of mourning. (The mourning period, called "shiva," comes from "sheva," the Hebrew word for the number seven.) They would likely have been nearing the end of the mourning period. The fact that they had to knock on doors to assemble a minyan (a group of…

We flash back to the hospital in Korea, where our protagonist is sleeping. The service men arrive to give Don his purple heart. He wakes, pauses for a moment, and says "No. I'm Dick Whitman. I think you made a mistake."

In the northeast those are two very distinct vowel sounds, while in other parts of the country they blend…

I am! I have them all and I love them. I was about 13 when Tails was released and while my other musical tastes have changed in the past ~20 years, my love for Lisa is the one thing that stays true. I realize that yours was probably a rhetorical question, but hey.

Yep - I'm remembering the scene with young Meredith riding a carousel while Ellis and Richard fight. She was begging him to leave his wife, but he decided not to. I would bet that she was pregnant then, but didn't tell him (or anyone) because she didn't want that to influence his decision. In response, she moved to…

The wolf highway! Poor Pluie. "Let's move on to the grizzly bear."

He had a brief appearance in the airport lounge when Roger and Don were travelling to Detroit. He was part of the large agency trying to get Chevy, and Roger convinced the flight attendant to lose their luggage. Lou walked over and said something snarky to the two of them. He also appeared at the very end of the…
