  This is a great post - and what a flight-oriented lead-in tonight: Apollo 13!

  Some crazy-like foreshadowing of the Apollo program on AMC. WE are not there yet--

  Yes, our thoughts are about to take flight. The tipple of choice for this evening---rum and cola, with a hefty squeeze of fresh lime juice.

  This is a whole new side to the Cooperites---Peggy blowing off a guy because of lousey presentations skills. There's newfound power.

  Well, that's the actual Flight 1, American Airlines out of Idlewild. All 95 on board were killed

  I don't know if Don should be mentoring anyone on being with the family . . .

  I like that Roger really knows Don, and tries to help him not commit career suicide

  Steed equates marriage with being overweight with a bad haircut. Funny that Betty thinks the cubby married neighbor is happy--

  Any thoughts on what the conflict between Don & Duck is? I thought Don brought Duck in.

  Duck is old school, pure business, sell the accounts, cash the checks, make the numbers.
  Don isn't exactly a revolutionary himself; but he does see the art of the sale, rather than just the numbers of the sale - and there are times when he's clearly in love with the "story" of the product - or, the brand. Agencies that did "branding" were new in the 60s. The old way was to make your dough by a % of the media buy.

  Makes sense esp. In light of the scene with Don and the man from Mohawk.

  I think Duck came in when Roger had his heart attack, so it was possible he wasn't going to stay once Roger was back. I think Duck is supposed to be a real rainmaker---he's not on the creative side like Don, so he needs to be more cutthroat.

  Maybe, maybe not. Pete's had a harsh relationship with his father all along, and his fatehr was contemptuous of his advertising career, as Pete tried to explain to Duck. And now Pete's not even going to get a cent from his broke father's estate. For Pete to use his father's death to further his own advertising career? Man, that is some sweet revenge.
  
  On another front, I notice that Don no longer calls his wife "Birdie."

  The Latin mass - let Pat Buchanan rejoice!
  But they've omitted the mantillas that the women would undoubtedly have worn.

  Ending with the communion rail and the grandson of Mr. Campbell. The plot does thicken, at its own pace.
