My DH's late grandmother was Conrad Hilton's personal secretary all through the '60s, so the scenes where she called Don and came in during the meeting was very cool for us.
awesome!
Jayne, you'll scare the women.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Way cool, Scrappy!

Hee! Oh, Scrappy, that's amazing to see a character who could have been a relative!
I thought Grampa Eugene's special status for Sally and near-total disdain for Bobby said a lot for how Betty's brother William turned out.
I wonder if Betty is one of those women who looooove babies, and don't really have much interest in older children?

That was my feeling.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Wow, that episode had everything. They got the subtle reference in to the JFK assassination, Joan being The Coolest Woman Alive, a great Peggy/Joan scene that had all kinds of history but didn't have to spell it out, Good Daddy Don, Bad Mommy Betty, Roger being a hilariously snarky bastard, mayhem, product placement, Peggy falling into Pete's arms, and the immortal line: "He'll never golf again."

OMG, his "foot in the door" line was evil but hilarious.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I just realized what all those scenes between Joan and Peggy and Don reminded me of. It was Buffy getting the Class Protector Award. Everybody wanted to let Joan know how valued she is.

I loved the scene with Joan and Peggy.
Yeah, I love their relationship. I don't want them to be roommates, but I do think sometime around 1970, when Joan becomes a feminist and has a Jane Fonda shag haircut, Peggy will finally be able to return some of the favor.

“Not dead yet!”
I haven't seen the ep yet (leave it to me to miss the episode that FINALLY generated discussion around here...) but I read the recap on amc and read the thread and I have to wonder if it is Doctor Greg who's faceplanted on the carpet and is gone like a gone thing, if Joan might not just wind up having another fling with Roger?
Just Because She Can.
