If it wasn't clear from the scene itself, look at Don's reaction when Peggy told him that Megan had gone home to be alone - he (and we) knew that Megan was pissed at him for not having sex with her the night of the party, CLEARLY he was going home for a booty call.
One of you is gonna fall and die, and I'm not cleaning it up!

I thought she was pissed at him for not liking the party at all ("Who doesn't want a surprise party?") and not being in any way grateful, and he was going home to try to make up with his wife.

Always Anti-fascist!
my mother would also hate that.Which might be the only thing she's ever shared with Don Draper.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I also hate surprise parties.
But I definitely thought it was a deliberate playing out. "You don't know her at all."

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yep. I find it interesting that he seems to have told her all about Dick Whitman and his poor childhood. I'm trying to figure Megan out:
1) it was obvious that they were playing at scene in their home. No one dismisses the maid, puts on a muumuu over a black bra and panties and starts cleaning the fucking house. I mean WTF?
2) she also was clearly upset when speaking to Peggy
3) she also doesn't seem to want children, but seems okay with Don's kids
4) she doesn't seem to really get Don. As much as Peggy may not know Megan, I am not sure Megan really knows Don outside of the fact she turns him on.

I feel really sad that Peggy doesn't know about Dick. Pete knows. Bert knows. Betty knows. Faye knows. MEGAN knows, and she's known Don the least. I want Peggy to know!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My question for the upcoming season is, who will sleep with the new Negro secretary!

Not Pete, but not for lack of trying.

Judging by his Playboy Bunny dalliance, Lane.
Actually, I was getting a Lane/Joan vibe there in the office.
Also, I was getting a sense that they might throw Joan and Don together. Not to please the shippers but because it would be so disastrous all around.

Me too. I was glad they didn't go there, but I think you may be on to something with Lane/Negro secretary.
