Mr. Pryce could go toe to toe in a shitty father cage match with Mr. Wyndham-Pryce anytime.
OH! That's why the interaction seemed familiar. der.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

The Pete/Don relationship is wonderfully conflicted and layered and intriguing. Pete was over a barrel, but I was surprised he took the whole failure on his own shoulders.
I think it was partly because that's what account people do everyday. You couldn't be good at accounts and not be able to suck it up like that. Pride is Creative's thing.

I stopped the DVR and rewound because I couldn't quite grasp that his father had hit him with his cane the first time around. Wow.

Did anyone besides me keep thinking of Wesley?
Very much so. And unlikely to turn out to be a robot in this case, more's the pity.

Although, I suspect that the robot was a fairly faithful replica of the actual person.

That's an interesting perspective. I can't see Roger doing the same thing (and Roger beating Pete up with what could just as well be Roger's own failures that no one knows about. Ouch)
Oh, man, the Pryces.That's hard to absorb, much less process.

Agreed. Except, as Lucky Strike dude pointed out, Roger's not necessarily good at his job, he inherited it. I think they hired Pete for his connections, but he's actually good at it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I wonder who they will get as new clients to replace Lucky Strike? It's gonna be a scranmble.
