What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

It is more than I have.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It is more than I have.

Pfft. Everybody who's anybody has secret babies, P-Cow. Get with it.

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?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Jesse, I was thinking the same thing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I really liked this episode. It was well directed by Jared Harris, and there were lots of great scenes. Pete in particular came off as well as he ever has without sacrificing his essential Pete-ness. "The King ordered it!"

"Don't sweetheart me!"

That scene with Peggy and Stan was excellent and felt.

I have no idea where they're going with the last three episodes though. I hope shit happens though. That's my wish. Decisive things happen and some people change.

Yes, that would be good.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That whole Campbell feud business was unexpectedly great.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes! That was completely unexpected and weird.

I was wondering whether I'd forgotten some callback! So that really was as astoundingly random as it seemed? Ha.
