Mad Men

The stories of Don Draper, his family and his co-workers at Sterling Cooper & Partners conclude.

Not the most elegant way to go, but accidental nonetheless.

Jo, just 'cause he says it doesn't make it true.

Can't cut you any slack for it, though.

It's much too emotional.

Did she jump?

Uh, I met her on, uh, Eharmony.

Hey. You were right, of course.

So he saw you?

Woman: Vicky was our hall R.A.

No.

Nice to know you're finally referring to her as the victim.

Our job is to translate,

I think the codex was the real draw.

He said he had an occasional smoke,

I'm gonna ask you one more time...

How does he know that?

Rewind that.

You're just a child, Henry.

Don has trouble sleeping. Pete is blindsided by a difficult friend. Facing a new challenge, Henry arranges a family reunion.

Well, can you quit before I buy you cleats and a stick next time?

I've done it before.

You're wrong. And for the first time, they don't.

Fine. Who is he?

I'll send my secretary up here in a cab tomorrow morning.

It's the rocker arm.

Isn't Wichita cattle country?

It's a flying limousine, Pete.

She'll listen to you.

but I like this one. I'll get my tools.

$40 for Don!

If you need an alibi, you're going to have to ask.

I'm just supposed to turn that off?

I'll be right back.

I don't want to talk about it.

And you're being very menacing right now.

I don't know.

That's why I never joined.

We came on a machine gun nest.

Took a couple of hours.

And I got to go home.

I fought for plenty in my life.

I was offered a job tonight.

I'm not ignoring the fact that I could actually lose your love.

Don receives a reward for his work. Joan butts heads with her co-worker on an account. Faced with a big decision, Roger dodges.

I asked you to do one damn thing and you didn't even do it.

It certainly is. Bill Phillips, Conley Research.

This was a hell of a boat, you know?

Can I still accept it?

Joan, it may not have sunk in,

I wonder how many women around here would like to speak to a lawyer.

Guess we're not as dumb as you think we are.

You can't save her.

Don comes up with a big idea, Roger asks Joan to help him fix a clerical error and Peggy has difficulties casting for a commercial.

Joan!

Frankly, not good at all.

Just pretend we're not here.

You hate kids.

We don't mind paying people,

SC&P has conflicts. That's why we exist.

Oh.

I just wanted to hear your voice.

It's personal, honey.

I thought about it for 10 seconds, then I thought,

and there's going to be a lot of clients

But he loves feeling the tip of your nose in the seat of his pants.

Well, I'm comfortable here.

Big company. Big products.

And, well, conflicts.

And, Pete, well,

I always feel bad about taking your spot

Roger called. Dow's a no.

It's a Campbell family tradition

Your daughter had only a head, mustache, and necktie.

It's some stupid story. It's 300 years old.

because I'm an important buyer and you're acting like an asshole.

Well, the head of admissions was a little fresh with me.

All it requires is a check.

We got three boys, three girls.

- You get ice, I'll pull out the staple. - No.

but we are here to discuss everything we can add to McCann-Erickson.

It made the whole thing look very capricious.

We went down swinging.

I understand you're angry about it,

And no one should have to make a mistake

And...

That's the point.

All that's left is a mausoleum at Greenwood.

Guess I should've asked your permission.

In a month, you're not going to have an office

Roger pawns off a project on Don, Joan goes on a business trip and Peggy and Pete cannot agree on how to deal with an account.

Mr. Avery is stuck in traffic,

Joan, are you coming or not?

We got into a little bit of trouble.

It looks like a sad person lives here.

Joan, I've been in prison for five years.

No.

and I thought, "Jeez, that looks good."

Maybe I'm a bad manager.

No, I mean, obviously I'd like to one day--

Hello.

- The client hated the layout. - Exactly, that's the problem.

Is Sally home? I'm a friend of hers.

Hey there. Could you get me a map to the powder room?

Do you talk to your parents this way?

- Sally! - I don't expect you to understand.

Well, you've obviously grown into a fine young man.

Mr. Mathis needs to see you.

I knew if I apologized, they'd never want to work with me again.

- Is that nice? - Yes, dear.

and I want to say good-bye.

Can I offer you a brandy?

Any chance in persuading you to stay until midnight?

to tell you

So you want fame?

Where the hell were you?

Guys like me know how to do it.

- Is everything all right? - Shut the door for me.

between you and my son, I choose you.

Of course.

Do you want me to say that I like it?

Well, I don't know what I'm supposed to say.

The bus leaves at 8:30. Will the food come in time?

Nothing like having realistic goals.

Your friend's a fast girl, Sally.

Roger gives Don some unwanted advice. Peggy and Stan disagree over an account's personnel. Harry asks for Don's blessing.

Of course I can. I do it all the time.

I'm surprised.

I took it home.

How did you find me?

So you were picturing it?

Got a lot of coats in that closet.

I don't feel like it.

even though it's just selling something.

I can't make it.

I'm an art director.

We have to get out of here.

Shit.

She said a lot of crazy things and I'm sure will continue to say them.

Number four.

Or maybe Topaz Pantyhose.

No, I didn't anticipate any of this,

So they're not called Topaz anymore.

Oh.

Sorry, did I wake you?

Something sad and sweet.

Excuse me?

Mr. Sterling and Mr. Donnelly are here.

I don't care if you know a girl from Kalamazoo.

Thank you, Roger. I appreciate your loyalty.

I don't dress the way you do

No.

Yes, from here. The other night.

They want me to giftwrap all my accounts and give them to Pete.

Now I just have to figure out

Is Torkelson going to marry her?

You have other plans?

I appreciate that.

Because you can probably still get the discount.

You'd rather find new creative than pick a girl?

Didn't you order lasagna?

No, that's just for the mourners.

Johnny Mathis.

well, never.

( sighs )

( laughs )

She's going to Europe with my brother-in-law.

Meredith, I'm leaving for the day.

Don receives a troubling letter. A risky venture entails a new future for Peggy. Roger gets an unexpected phone call. Pete butts heads with Cutler.

I'm gonna crawl outta this place with nothing left to show.

"Local buy, national buy, outdoor."

So...

Particularly today.

I don't know.

You can get my attorney on the phone.

You know, Ted and I,

- What's going on? - I just got a breach letter

- Nobody does. - My uncle has a house and he got my mom a job.

No, you won't.

I think we're gonna see "The Wild Bunch."

I owe you that.

Don cost her a million dollars when we didn't go public.

So you called me at sunrise to discuss the meaning of life?

You just lost Burger Chef, we may win it.

We got an offer from McCann Erickson to buy the agency.

I've given it careful thought,

I appreciate it, but we already have a strategy.

And a lot quieter.

We're moving the XP over to Campbell-Ewald, and you're moving on.

That's a good idea.

There's no one to look after Tammy.

These are for you.

Oh, good morning.

Look at these feet.

I'm inundated, sweetheart.

This idea is good.

Do it out loud.

On the other hand, you might get some good work.
