"I'm a homosexual."

"I don't think that means what you think it means."

That whole scene was awesome. Good ep.

Don's excursion with the rich weirdos was very interesting. I thought they might have drugged him when he fell out.

Also "It's Dick Whitman" through me for a loop.

Yeah, I think the idea there was that you were supposed to think he was drugged. I guess. I definitely did.

As for the "Its Dick Whitman, i want to see you", between that and the preview for next week, it looks like Don Draper may be dead for a while and ol Dick may be alive.

Duck is sure going through a lot just so he can be Draper's boss.

This shouldn't be surprising considering what show Weiner worked on before MM but when Don was standing there right before he got in the convertible he suddenly reminded me a lot of Tony Soprano.

And, ive been meaning to mention this for a few weeks but AMC needs to get started on The Bert Cooper Show immediately: I'm more fucking obsessed with that weirdo every week.

Vaguely incestuous sex family really creeps me out.

Was the ending showing us that Don doesn't come back from California?

The preview for next week's episode made it look like he was staying in Cali as well.

That's what I got; also Sterling saying that he was taking some time off for marital difficulties

Yeah, except for the Dick Whitman part, that whole episode has a "Tony and Chris" go to Vegas vibe. I hope it pushes the plot more than those usually did - and I think it will, because of the preview and the Dick Whitman thing.
