"Cooper's in Montana, Sterling's in Jane"

Betty looked fantastic in that black dress

Good episode. Betty and Don only have chemistry together when they're both pretending to be other people.

OK, she's hot...I can see how men would try to pick her up at a bar

BUT, her personality is NON EXISTANT...how they can try to make us believe that men would be enthralled with her stretches credibility

It's the time period - just look at Jackie B/O Kennedy - zero personality, but she came from good stock and was properly bred raised to fit in with a certain class and carry herself with poise, which was pretty much enough back then.

Pete needs some serious pointers from Don in how to pickup women.

Oh, and my comment to my wife:

It'd feel weird for Don, being in a business trip and having sex with his wife.

that guy who confronted him -- he's a well known actor, isn't he? I've seen him before, and I thought for a second that he was in Sterling-Cooper once or twice. Guess not, though.

Pete could have kicked his ass, as the guy was as small as Pete...but Pete is a coward at heart, and I think the confrontation startled him to submission. Maybe, once he gets up enough gander and anger, he'll retaliate and tell this guy where to go.

The guy told Pete to leave his own building! What, you expect me to move out?! I think Pete better grow some balls, and quick.

Actually I thought that guy was going to beat the tar out of Pete. He was smallish but scary, and Pete seems so slight. Frankly, I thought Pete would have deserved it.

Wha -? Deserved it?! No, he deserved the nookie. Pete went way-yy out of his way to do good for this chick, and all she did was say Thanks and close the door in his face?! Look, you don't go accepting gifts or offers from men if you aren't going to "put out."

He did not tell Peter to leave the building. He told Peter that if he was looking for women, then look for them outside the building, which should have been obvious to Peter.

Wow, you didn't understand that scene at all. That scene was not meant to be confrontational at all, but to point out what an idiot Pete is. Why would Pete need to beat him up - the guy just didn't want to lose his nanny. And he wasn't asking Pete to leave the building but to be more discreet and that if he's going to have an affair he should do it with someone who's not in the same building.

I think you misunderstood the scene. He was telling him to leave the building when hes looking for some strange. You know, don't shit where you eat and all that good stuff. He was fairly polite about it considering.

opps --- LOL. See how I take things during an emotional confrontation?! Look, it was a bit threatening...the guy stepped up close to Pete in the end, and that's threatening to me. Not to you?

Well....it WAS a confrontation. Just not a heated "I am about to kick your ass" kind of one. There's a difference.

The guy got in Pete's face. In Pete's own apartment, yet. Trying to intimidate him. C'mon...!

Dude, you have issues

The guy dropped by and POLITELY said

"Hey, wink wink, don't fuck my nanny dude, I don't want to lose her, and hey, we all fuck the nannies around here, just in other buildings"

It was COMPLETELY UN- confrontational

He even made sure Pete's wife wasn't home so he wouldn't get Pete caught

the guy was as polite as a gangster. Polite, and without a smile or mirth.
