I can see him turning the dog out, it was just another symbol of his failure, which I think he couldn't face.

He also couldn't stand any kind of lasting witness to his latest downfall, which is why he didn't simply put Chauncey out in the hall, but out on the street completely.

Which I'm still seething over, big baby that I am. Just went and picked up my babies from boarding and I've been petting them like mad.

Oh, and I got a great snort out of Sally:

"Do you kiss her?"

"Yes."

"And do you lay on top of her?"

"..."

"Go find your Daddy. I need to work."

The Jackie/ Marilyn conversation bugged me too, but somehow it was cool that Don had an answer for it.

I know! I'm still mad at Duck. Likely because Seabiscuit came to us through somebody turning him out. Threw him out of a car, probably. Makes me furious.

I miss the beatnik girl, because I miss seeing that type of social motion. It's too insular, too much the restricted universe of the admen.

Do you think it's more insular now because Don has moved up in the world?

Is he still living in the same 'burb he was in season 1? Have they moved up that way too?

Is he still living in the same 'burb he was in season 1?

Yep -- they're still in Sing Sing.

I got through 20 minutes of "The Shield" before I had to turn it off. Too.much.gore.

I'll have to try again tomorrow.

Yep -- they're still in Sing Sing.

Well, they live in Ossining -- it just feels like a prison.

Well, they live in Ossining -- it just feels like a prison.

Oh, I know. But I did find it interesting that in this ep, the prison is a subject of conversation at the country club, whereas last season it was there thematically but unspoken.

Yeah, maybe they found that people didn't get it.
