A workmanlike and generally forgettable episode that
basically just moves the ball down the field a ways toward Betty and Don’s
eventual separation. Otherwise, I didn’t particularly care for the Peggy/priest
storyline originally and it still doesn’t do anything for me. Joan’s work with
Harry reading TV scripts is a nice bit of long-range foreshadowing, though, on
how she will eventually take a bigger role in the company.
Best Scenes: The
series between Betty and Don where she is confronting him about his affair with
Bobbie Barrett is the only real reason to go back to this episode. Don is in
full-on denial mode; despite his bravado, Betty sees right through him,
reducing him to pathetic lines like, “Jimmy Barrett is a big mouth.”
Best Line: Betty
to Don: “I would never do this to you. How could you do this to me?”
Grade: C-
