It's all about choices, Faith. The ones we make, and the ones we don't. Oh, and the consequences. Those are always fun.

She seems like a bright, appealing young wife, trying so hard. I bet Salvatore is a good husband otherwise.

until people start asking about children ;)

“Not dead yet!”

Is this the first time Betty knows who the other woman is? When she admitted to the shrink that she knew Don had affairs, she was kind of fishing out the information, right?

Yeah-- she suspected before and when she called a phone number that she found in Don's desk, I think she fully expected that a woman would pick up, but then it turned out to be the shrink and that's when she realized that Don had been checking in on her supposed confidential sessions. And IIRC, it was after that that Betty made the comment to the doctor in a session that she was aware of Don's affairs, probably looking for some passive/aggressive way to let Don know that she knew of them.

However, now that the Other Woman's been given an actual face (and that Betty was humiliated in the process), she's going to be able to directly confront Don, which is what they alluded to in the previews for next week. Of course, she could be confronting him about something else altogether. That's the beauty of this show. You just don't know.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Betty's "you people are so crude" comment was telling. I liked Jimmy's response, too - "Who? Comedians!??!?" He had both her and Don's number.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, and poor Salvatore with his unrequited affection for Ken. And poor Kitty! She seems like a bright, appealing young wife, trying so hard. I bet Salvatore is a good husband otherwise.

Poor Salvatore. He perked up so much when Ken said, "You're not like the other men around here, are you?" No, no he's not.

I think she said, "you people are ugly and crude." I assume Jimmy is supposed to be Jewish? The writers sum up so much in just Betty's line and Jimmy's response.

Yeah, Bobbie had some line about if it wasn't for her, it would have been "Grin and [Jewish name]," not "Grin and Barrett."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

AfterElton just did a great interview with Brian Batt (Sal).

Anybody watching Sons of Anarchy? Is it just me, or are there a lot of Jericho alumni on this show?

I'm watching SOA. I read Juliana's take on it before I saw it, and I'm surprised by how much Hamlet there is in it :) I'm enjoying it so far. I got a season pass.
