Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Roger's speech about his name dying out was interesting because of course he does have a son, just not one who has his last name.
You know, I did not even think about that. But, yeah, does not help with the end-of-the-Sterlings.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Roger has a son with...Joan? So many secret babies on this show.

Yes, Joan's son is Roger's, but he is just Uncle Roger to the boy as far as we know.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I can't make myself care anymore what happens to Don Draper. I have just completely run out of interest in his dark secret manpain.
Some nice callbacks in this ep - starting the meeting with "Shut the door" (and, by implication, have a seat). The five partners framed by the windows with the skyline behind them, this time defeated and facing the camera.
But overall this ep just reminded me of when I was excited by the plot twists in this show instead of bored by the endless repetition. (Yeah, yeah, it's a carousel. But it's starting to feel predictable instead of inevitable.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wouldn't have minded this as the finale, basically. A little fan-service-y, callbacks, transition, etc. So now what are they going to do for the next three episodes?

Jesse, I was thinking the same thing.
