I am giving the heads up that I might need to poke the hivemind on Mad Men stuff over the next couple of weeks. I am writing a final paper for my lit crit class and I'm writing it on Don and Betty Draper using a social/historical context and also on Betty herself using Marilyn French's Gender Principles. So I might need to ask for examples from past seasons that I'm unsure of. I have Season 1 on iTunes, but don't have Season 2. So any help that can be given would be awesome and I think y'all in advance. MWAH!!
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Aims, I will refer you to the Mad Man footnotes website to start.
Also, the Mad Men review section at the AV Club will have synopsis for every ep.
Or you can just ask us.

Also, what happened to Tara (I think I missed it).
Nothing. He left her alive. She ended up crying on Hale's shoulder.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Alan Sepinwall likes Men Of A Certain Age. So to speak.

Andre Braugher has man boobs. That does not bode well for the show.

I don't think I can write my Mad Men paper. I'm having a really hard time with it.
