I know not of automats, but it struck me as an amalgam of a diner and an automat. The waitress was totally about to deliver eggs to the douche. And there were definitely not two different locations. The only diner I saw was the one that Peggy was meeting Jarvis at multiple times with their backs to each other.
You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I just watched both episodes. One thing that I had a question about, the scenes where Peggy and Steve were talking while he was getting ready to crash the plane...it's been awhile since I've seen Cap 1, were those lifted straight out? or was there some new stuff there?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Those were lifted straight out.

With all the clips, pretty soon I won't have to see the first Captain America.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I know that there were hotel/apartments specifically for women in New York which could be pretty restrictive as to behavior on the premises. I don't think they were as particular as to dress.
In the 90s, my family stayed at a hotel in Philly with gender-segregated floors and no pants allowed for women. I don't think it was this one, but a sister.

I can see the gender segregation as something residents might prefer, but no pants allowed for women in a place where they're sleeping and relaxing, as opposed to a business attire environment? How exactly would that work, surprise inspections in the middle of the night?

No pants in the lobby or other public spaces. I guess you could wear what you want in your room, but you have to wear a skirt to get there!

Pants on women was something that raised a lot of eyebrows at the time. Katherine Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich were shocking. Peggy would have gotten dirty looks for walking around on the streets with pants. Heck, I thought she looked overcasual, just a blouse with pants and no hat (I don't remember a hat, at least).

Oh, in Peggy's day I can see women wearing pants being a herald of the downfall of civilization, but I meant the hotel in the 90s. It just seems barely a step removed from requiring people to dress up in Victorian costume.

The place was cheap, and you knew what you were getting into, so I guess that was enough.
