Sophia,
unlike Homeland, there really isn't much to see regarding the actual shock treatment. The treatment is discussed and you see the person sometime post-treatment, but you don't see the actual treatment.
Gabriel: Are you trying to destroy this family? Simon: I didn't realize it would be so easy.
'Safe'
Cable Drama: Still Waiting for the Cable Guy to Show Up with the Thread Name...
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Thanks le nubian. I know it is weird but I REALLY don't like watching it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
it isn't that weird, it seems to me. I was fucked up regarding "mental hospitals" after seeing "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" as a teenager. I wanted nothing more with seeing them until I was well into adulthood.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Sadly, electro shock was not an uncommon treatment for women whose depression was exacerbated by their husbands being jerks
My reading of the situation was that Rory's depression is exacerbated by the fact that her husband reacts to it by avoiding her (and sleeping around in Manhattan), which leads to her being lonely and having affairs, which leads to him checking her into the mental hospital to have her brain erased so she'll stop cheating on him.
Suddenly Don's phone calls to Betty's therapist seem WAY less creepy and invasive.
Megan's mom with her "the world cannot support that many ballerinas" was COLD. Brrrrr.
I loved the power shot of the partners looking out from the empty 38th floor.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Me too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I didn't expect Megan to be such a backstabber. I liked you, Megan! What the hell.

Yeah, that was unexpected for me too.

right?
holy shit.
As soon as her friend mentioned the ad, I was like: oh Megan is going to go for that. No doubt.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

One of the themes of the season, as Roger articulated it: "Every man for himself." Which was part of Peggy's decision to leave.
I didn't think it was particularly backstabby of Megan. Just because a friend asks for an audition doesn't mean you don't go to it or try to get it. Very few people make it in show biz without exploiting the relationships they have. That's what her friend was trying to do as well.

Sure, but in that case, she could have either A) asked for her first or B) AT ALL. I kind of hoped she would suggest her after Don turned her down. I don't see how saying, "I will help you get this part," and then doing, "I will help myself get this part without even trying to help you at all" isn't backstabby. I'm sure there are plenty of similar stories in showbiz. That doesn't mean it's right.
