As Mo Ryan detailed earlier this morning, last night’s excellent episode of ‘Mad Men’ (Sundays at 10PM ET on AMC) showed viewers the full spectrum of the relationship between Peggy and Don. It’s a special one, no doubt, one that’s developed in interesting ways over the last four seasons.
At times, they’ve seemed to be boss and secretary or boss and copywriter, but at other times he seems to be the father figure she never had. Sometimes, though, Don acts like an older brother goading and pushing his little sister to achieve. There have even been fleeting moments of sexual tension between the two, but nothing that would or could ever be explored, especially by Don. He knows too much about her, and besides, in her he sees the younger go-getter version of himself.
Because of the ebb and flow of the night Peggy and Don spent together — Peggy missing her birthday dinner and breaking up with her boyfriend, the confrontation over Glo-Coat, the Sterling tapes, the drunken fight between Duck and Don, Don finally having the nerve to call and find out about Anna — it was tough to pick any one scene to highlight. But the final scene of the episode ties the night, and their relationship, together quite nicely.
