A place to discuss AMC’s Mad Men, a critically acclaimed psychological period-drama series that earned sixteen Emmys and five Golden Globes.
I am still watching the episode, I wouldn't be surprised if he does sleep with her eventually... Again. But goddamn, bro must be fighting his inner demons while kicking her out like that

Finish the episode, then give us an update.
OP only likes the beginning of things.
Damnn nothing could have prepared me for that scene
They play it off like a dream, but Don actually murdered that woman. Megan cleaned up and disposed of the body. That's why she's so moody and mad at Don for the rest of the series.
I’ve thought this. I’ve never went into the “conspiracy” other than thinking of it in general. You’re on to something.
I mean why else would you write a $1,000,000 check to somebody?
What. Seriously?
You don't remember Don's serial killer arc? For me that was when Dick Whitman finally transformed into Don Draper. It was so dark what he had to do to get ideas for killer ads.
Keep watching.
No lol
OK, Buddy D.
Interesting, lol will do. Gotta say, season 5 is damn good till now
Until now?
For turning down Shelly from Twin Peaks of all people.
Shelly, it's been swelly.
None of this actually happened. Not even the post about it.
It will shock you how much this post never happened
Touché
Was she even there at all?
I think they saw each other in the elevator and that was the only real part. I don’t think she ever even came to his apartment
This. It’s up to debate that she was even real at all, but if she was she certainly isn’t more than a fleeting interaction in the elevator that Don’s psyche blew way out of proportion in his fever dream state.
It’s honestly a very interesting look into Don’s personality and limits. Is this something he’s truly capable of if pushed to the breaking point? Or is it something his fever dreaming mind is coming up with in a dark place? We don’t really know.
I don’t think it’s meant to be taken as Don having the capacity for murder as much as Don feeling his adulterous past following him and getting in the way of his marriage & wishing he could bury it. Dream sequences are predominantly metaphorical.
Did she even exist?
Tony, can I sit down?
Why are you making me do this, you fat fuck?
Let me keep my eyes.
She died. It's sad when they go like that. 56 years old...just a fuckin kid
WHEN THEY GO!?
Fuck you Santa!
I love it when sopranos quotes show up in the mad men sub
It's a tv program. A movie.
I thought she was another one of his hallucinations, or at least the part of them hooking up and him killing her 🙃
Yeah, ummmm
He’d fuck a catcher’s mitt!
His mid life crisis or whatever
He did twenty years in the can
Tone, if you give him a golf club he’ll probably try to fuck it.
Bottle of rye isn't the only thing he slipped in the golf bag
Slightly off topic but good god is Jon Hamm hot. Perfect casting tbh as I truly do believe he could pull any woman who slightly glances towards him. He pulls off 50s straight edge too well.
OK Buddy Draper was well aware of the episode before he made this garbage post.
Nah, I posted it while I was watching it, thought it was funny that Don actually turned down a woman.
imo it's extra funny because he actually didn't, he had a fevered delusion of being a guy capable of turning down a woman
Lol yeah, impossible for dude to turn down a woman
You don’t get medals for turning down hallucinogenic women, you get medals for beating the clap.
what episode was this
Season 5 episode 4.Don is ill for some reason, Chicago nurse murders are on the newspapers
i love grandma pauline in this episode
What did she break off for Sally? Half a phenobarbital?
Close, secobarbital.
You talking about Bluto?
Richard Speck.
He's featured in Netflix's Mindhunter Season 1 Episode 9.
Cancelling that show at two seasons was a shame. I’ll have to rewatch it, bc the last season was getting really good.
Mystery Date.
One of my absolute favorite episodes
The medal of honor lol
In your dreams.
Most faithful Don moment
He’s a bad penny
What do you think she meant by that?
There’s a phrase “a bad penny always turns up”, so maybe a mistake or bad deed that keep popping up in your life?
Interesting, thanks!
And another one for beating the clap!
Ok Roger!
Lol it was Grandpa Gene, actually. But I could totally see Roger saying that!
Which episode is this from?
And it was a hallucination
hey dick whitman, did she even really exist?
Like the girl, this post can't be real.
