'Bushwhacked'
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])
he took a huge risk by accepting Don's bribe. I mean, it's the big boss!
But he's not, is he? He says it's his name on the building, but that other large guy (forgot his name) seems to be the big big boss. Do we know Roger's connection with the building?
No, Betty was intrigued and interested, but I don't think she acted forward or anything.
I thought those shots were maybe about setting something up for race relations stuff later on.
Even though it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, I can't shake the idea that Don is passing.

He was introduced as the Biggest!Boss' partner this episode, wasn't he?
