That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

HMOG! Peggy told Pete he was a daddy! Guess the Father was right that she really needed confession.

I wonder, did she tell him because he professed his love, or because of the bomb/need to confess?

Do you think that Pete's going to get a little more accepting of adoption now :)

“Not dead yet!”

My knee-jerk reaction is "Oh hell no." Although he might let Trudy do it, but he'll always wonder "what if?" He'll never look at a child in his own home, not of his blood and not try to superimpose the image of his own child.

Heh. I think he's going to badger Peggy to try and find out where the baby is and then tell Trudy that "sure I'll adopt, I've got just the kid!"

Trudy won't want a toddler though. She wants an infant. She wants to play the game from the very beginning.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, seriously, oh, SHOW!

This was a crazy but mostly satisfactory season finale. I love that with last season's gap leaves so much to wonder about with the time span before S3. You just have no idea what to expect, no matter what happens.

And so much happened this episode.

According to measuringworth.com, the 500K is worth 2,827,133.90 today.

I love that Duck screwed himself by not knowing that Don didn't have a contract. I suspect that PPL will make them co presidents or something.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

oh, and did anyone else wince when Trudy said "If you loved me, you'd want to be with me" and Pete said "that's true" and then she just kissed him and they went to load the car. whoa.

“Not dead yet!”

I turned to Lewis at that point and said, "She's really not that bright, is she?"

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I don't know if it's that she's not bright or that her expectations are low. Maybe she thinks that no one will love her as much as her daddy, so it's okay that Pete doesn't love her.

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

Goooood episode! So many threads to be picked up later. If they jump ahead a similar amount of time, that will put them around '65/'66, right? Perfect time to take a trip to swinging London, now that Sterling Cooper is a British-owned firm. There's the space race, the Great Society (and associated conservative backlash) and The Beatles ruling the pop world.

I also think Duck hissy-fitted himself out of being president. I'm curious if we'll even see him, depending on the how far forward we go.
