I thought that the title sequence is Don's future.

I'm guessing that we'll start seeing more of Joan (Saffron) - she seemed like she was so important in the pilot and then she pretty much disappeared.

I wasn't sure if I liked "Mad Men" but now I need to know what Draper is hiding.

My guess is that there was some ugly situation in Korea and the real Don Draper is killed - and he grabs his dog tags. And then Dick Whitman is listed as dead or MIA.

so, Mad Men is stealing plots from The Simpsons?

That part I figured on. But is there something he's covering up, or is his family life just that trifling. It's kind of funny...he was his own first ad account. Sorta.

That is what he's covering up - he's not who he says he is. Why should it be more than that?

No special reason, but I thought there might be because of his wartime traumas and whatnot. Also, while I have joked about Changing My Name And Moving Away, Don really did.

I think there's something in Dick Whitman's past before or during the war that was so traumatic he had to change identities to escape from it. I'm guessing he killed someone outside of the war - maybe uncle mac?

I'm guessing that things weren't happy with the fosterparents and he just seized the opportunity.

I thought that the "mom" had died first -- but after he had left home.
