I've read other critics say the same thing as Heather about Don and Betsy's final scene.
After giving it some thought: I don't think Don really gave a shit under what conditions she welcomed him back. It could be he wonders about his motives, but I don't think he was hurt by that.
When I saw his facial expression(s), I thought he wondered if the baby was his. But this is not a wonder I feel committed to.
I don't think that it would really have occurred to Don that betty would cheat.

Yeah I really don't think that possibility's anywhere in his worldview.
"Don's stricken look in the wake of Betty's news doesn't reflect his reluctance to have another child so much as his disappointment in realizing that he's being welcomed back not as a flawed, hurt person trying to make a connection, but as a provider."
I think there was definite disappointment in there, but I think there was a little bit of relief, a little joy. But I think most of all there was a lot of fear, in the "where do we go from here?" Just because he's back doesn't make everything puppies and rainbows.
And no matter what else is going on - they all thought that they might be dead by Monday. That's going to be a bit of a downer.
I know! I kept looking at my TiVo and looking...no red eye. No Mad Men! That's just wrong!
At least we got the Simpsons parody opening. [link]
Parody opening was great. Sketch, not so much.
