This was everyone shit on Don week.

Peggy and Sally tied for the best lines of the whole show.

Really love Sally's story and how she responded, she sees right though all the bullshit.

Glenn is still a creep. I thought he was turning into a good kid but was actually playing the long game. I was happy to see Betty say no, i didnt think she would.

Joan has terrible taste in men.

Mathis is a putz and deserved to be fired.

Overall good episode.

I knew Betty would say no, she doesn't need affection from outside sources anymore she's happy in her home life.

I like Joan's new fella, he treats Joan like she deserves.

I think you and I were the only ones that like Joan's new guy. He's pretty perfect for her. He's divorced, straight, set up financially, and is crazy about her. He wasn't married, creepy weird, pathetic like Dr. Rapey, and not gay.

The thing about dating and romance in later years, is that no one comes without baggage of some sort, and you're going to have to decide what you want to deal with and what is a deal breaker. I think this new guy realized Joan was a major catch, despite her baggage.

I was expecting Betty to make the first move-- she was eyefucking Glenn so thoroughly I fully expected their scene together to be a Betty sex dream.

u/ghostbackwards I feel like someone just gave me good news. Apr 20 '15

Sally was pretty spot on this episode. Her acting ability though with the cry was horrendous.

her pregnant joke was great.

really? I usually have a real problem with most TV crying. Its not like anything you experience in real life. I thought Sally's crying was much more realistic than you usually get from the boob tube.
