That's true that the whole country club setting could have set him off. I suppose part of my reaction is me seeing what I want to see.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

I thought Don and Pete both looked horrified at the blackface routine, but for different reasons. I think Don appears to have a burgeoning social conscience of sorts, which is sorta uncomfortable because he's not exactly hero material. But I do think he understands the desire to be treated as an equal. Pete, on the other hand, probably thought that the whole display was the gauche sensibility of the nouveau riche.

I'm wondering if Betty's offhand remark about the baby not moving right now is foreshadowing of a miscarriage.

There was a reference to Jackie O's pregnancy, too, and she had a stillborn child in mid '63, right?

I forgot about that reference, and yes she did.

yes. I would not be surprised if all is not well with the Draper baby.

yes. I would not be surprised if all is not well with the Draper baby.
A Down's baby, perhaps? Remember what Betty said about wanting everything to be perfect in the season opener?

I feel like I should watch all of the episodes from the beginning with every new episode, because there is so much that is really subtle until you start connecting it to other things.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
And also the bit in the opener about Don's mother having a history of stillborns. Not sure how much of that is Don projecting his fears, as he isn't biologically his mother's child, but who knows?
