A friend pointed out that Fred Pohl worked in advertising in the 50s -- THE SPACE MERCHANTS is somewhat based in that experience. (As is "The Marching Morons")

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
But it sure looked to me like she was responding to that kiss. She was leaning into it before she broke it off.
I don't think so, FTR. I think she was just accepting it, to a point.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
My favorite part of the episode - and there were many good things - was Roger's reaction to the imminent fist fight. And then Don closing the drapes and Don, Roger and Cooper watching with guilty pleasure!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Don closing the drapes and Joan opening the door were my two favorite little character moments from this ep. Just absolutely note-perfect.

I'd also add every character's reaction to Don fixing the sink, especially his own. Mmmmm.
