Season One, Ep 11. From the second he appeared onscreen, I knew Don's brother was going to kill himself, just didn't know how. It's hard to read exactly how Joan feels about what happened to Roger. Loved the way Don so quickly corrected Peggy about it being an "assignment" and not an "account". I'm impressed that Peggy didn't spend anytime being offended thinking the guys were implying that she's overweight. I burst out laughing at Peggy's response to the machine. Damn, II have never seen anybody with a knack for wearing lingerie like January Jones. I don't like the way this Mencken woman is controlling Don and doesn't give a damn that he's married. Elisabeth Moss nailed that scene where she tried to explain the machine to Don. That scene with Betty and the AC salesman was interesting...glad Betty caught her head. Loved that the Mencken woman didn't get the unconditional support from her BFF that she was hoping for. Why does Roger's return to work demand applause? Can't tell whether or not Joan is aware of exactly what happened to Roger. If that was Roger's attempt at romancing Joan, he really sucks at it. "Soon the milk stains are going to hit the sweat stains." "Blame is one thing, malice is another." My jaw dropped when they mentioned that warning labels haven't been put on cigarette packs yet. Loved Pete's reaction to hearing Don might be made a partner. Why was Peggy pretending to be a smoker for her date? Can't believe they mentioned Wise Potato Chips...we had those delivered to our house when I was a kid. "Advertising doesn't work on me...it's just a lot of people screaming from the walls on the TV." Don needs to stop putting pressure on Betty's therapist. "From what I understand, she provides the pleasure of a man, without the man." I have to say it...Betty's washing machine fantasy was hot. "You presented like a man, now act like one." People better not sleep on Cooper...he's a lot sharper than the office seems to think. If I were Don, I wouldn't trust Pete as far as he could throw him. I love the Stirling Cooper secretarial pool set...it reminds me of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Cannot believe Pete took Don's package. Excellent episode.
