Not while Lucky Strike remains their biggest client. I dug it, too. It seemed an awful lot like the series finale, though, y'know. I wonder how much story is left to tell without changing the rules.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I love that Joan didn't have to come back defeated because of her husband but as a big damn hero! Loved Don kicking the door in! Loved Peggy telling Roger she could not get him a cup of coffee!
Betty is being such an idiot jumping from a marriage to one man that she didn't know to a possible marriage with another man she barely knows.
I really wish they had brought Sal into the new company, but I am holding out hope for this happening next season.

Not while Lucky Strike remains their biggest client.
Yeah, as soon as they mentioned Lucky Strike, I winced, because I knew that meant they wouldn't be calling Sal.
Elizabeth Moss was so good this episode! You could read every stage of her thought process during her conversation with Don in her apartment.

I might have done a fist-pump and yelled YES! when I realized Roger was going to call in Joan. That was SO satisfying.
And I loved Don's "Joan! Good idea!" as soon as he saw her.
I love that Joan didn't have to come back defeated because of her husband but as a big damn hero!
THIS THIS THIS.
Not while Lucky Strike remains their biggest client.
That didn't occur to me until after I went to bed, but yeah. Poor Sal.
I wonder how much story is left to tell without changing the rules.
I'm thinking next season will be a big time jump. Maybe 2-3 years.
Man, those poor kids. Maybe once Betty's in a happier marriage, she'll have the emotional reserves to be a better mom? I just don't know. She's so ill-equipped for adulthood.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
If Betty's off to Reno for six weeks, why can't Don stay at the house to be with the kids? Provide some sort of parental presence in their lives.

Seriously. And doesn't Carla have her own family who might want to see her every now and then?

I was thinking that too. The poor kids get their lives turned upside down and then don't have either parent at the house.
Man, those poor kids. Maybe once Betty's in a happier marriage, she'll have the emotional reserves to be a better mom? I just don't know. She's so ill-equipped for adulthood.
I think Betty is going to find herself just as unhappy with her new man before long. Don really should have custody of the kids, but I suppose there is little chance of that happening.
That didn't occur to me until after I went to bed, but yeah. Poor Sal.
I missed that. Well, hopefully we will see him again as a competitor.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I think Betty is going to find herself just as unhappy with her new man before long.
Yeah. She's still in that little girl mode, where she looks for a man who will take care of her/worship her. It's telling that she chooses a man who's old enough to have a grown daughter. And Francis telling her not to worry (her pretty head) about alimony, he'll take care of her... yikes. That does not bode well. But it's understandable as well, as Betty has few options as a woman with no particular skills in the '60s, with 3 small children, who wants to leave her husband.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
no shit.
Did you see the gap between Betty and Henry on the train? For a couple who are anticipating a future life together, that body language was OFF.
