I can't be the only one not rooting for Don anymore, can I?
When I-forget-his-name, the boss from the rival company now merged, had that smug look when Don pointed out it wouldn't matter what he does because "you're the one who flew us here in your own plane" I was pleased.
Draper was pretty disgusting throughout the episode and it's almost sad watching him continue his ways.

Think it may be a turning point episode for Don with how it showed he may not necessarily be king anymore; getting all the glory and what he wants.

No you're not. The future Mrs. Yeah_Baby and I are quite appalled. In fact I haven't really been a fan of the Doctor's wife that Don was cheating with. But when she finally stood up to him, I was pleased.
I think what 'upsets' me the most about Don was he got his "do over" with Megan. He could once again reinvent himself (Something he had wanted to do again, something he told Lane to do before Lane killed himself). And Don is pissing it away like it's 1962 all over again.

I am most upset that he is cheating on her because he resents her success, and find that pretty pathetic.

Maybe it is because I am supposedly contrarian but I am still "rooting for Don."
Can't stand Peggy or the other creative guy (Ted?) so makes it easier to like Don when Peggy acts so bitchy and whiny all the time.

I'm a huge fan of Don's character.
Not because I like it, or because I want to be it, but because it's interesting and he always seems to make it work.

Had no idea where it was going for a good 45
Mins but the payoff was definitely there.

"Are we Negroes?"
My personal highlight of the episode.
Edit: Seeing it posted in the thread with my avatar beside it also made me chuckle. It's the simple things...

What an awesome way of working in Don's flashbacks to the events that have some much meaning in the fiber of the show.

Nice to see Hot Betty back, and finally with the upper hand on Don. That was the best Betty episode in years.
Poor Peggy. What a brutal break-up. "You will always be the enemy." But, seriously, who carries a knife taped to a stick?
I'm still not sure what the deal is with Bob Benson, but he has done well for himself. He loves that take-out coffee so much, I half expect him to move to Seattle and start Starbucks in a couple of years.

Great episode... I hope there is more Betty/Don flings... Megan is too good/nice for Don, but not Betty! Peggy can't seem to get a break... Great episode!

Whoever wrote "Joan goes to the beach" in the episode description can die in a fire. Otherwise it was a great episode.

The moment where Peggy tries to dramatically slam the double-sliding doors was to me one of the funniest moments of the season (perhaps topped by her stabbing her boyfriend). The way that Mad Men uses a sort of understated physical comedy to cut the tension of a dramatic scene is quite brilliant.

This season is really hitting its stride. The last several episodes have all been very different, but great in their own way. Plenty of intriguing story lines that have yet to be explored too.
There are a lot of great shows on TV these days, but I honestly think Mad Men is the best.

I like the continued decline of New York happening in the background.
