And that was a great Rubicon. Much better show with good writers.
Wild monkey love or tender Sarah McLachlan love?

I do wonder when/if Roger realized that he hadn't actually hired Don.
You think? I assumed that he did hire him in a drunken stupor but that it wasn't shown onscreen. It didn't occur to me that Don might have conned Roger.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I wonder if we'll ever see that scene.

Oh I totally thought he conned Roger. No doubt.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I didn't think he conned Roger so much as took advantage of him when he was drunk.
The parallel seemed to be that Roger's drunken shenanigans lead to hiring Don, and Don's lubricated antics lead to Danny Strong.

But do you believe Don when he tells Roger "You said 'welcome aboard'"? Because I don't.

I don't.

I believed him when I watched, but your theory makes me not so sure. Still, my original thought was in line with Hec's -- there was supposed to be a parallel between Don & Danny. Which would mean that Roger did hire Don.

I think the parallels are still there - young annoying brash guy who nobody really wants there starts work anyway via an alcohol-related fluke.
