In this episode, we see Don Draper not coping with his new role at SCP, and after a bad episode with Bertram Cooper, hits the bottle. He ends up in a small bender, only to be rescued by Freddie Rumsen, who seven years before, had a drinking problem and was himself rescued by Don.
Additionally, Don must now contend with Peggy, who is overseeing his work on a new account. At the beginning of the series, she was Don's secretary, putting up with his lack of decency as a boss. Now, the tables have turned.
And we see Roger Sterling get a dose of reality when he has to deal with his daughter, who left her husband and son to go to a commune. She confronts him about his past treatment of her.
While many people are not with the series like they used to be, this final season has been much better than Season Five, and somewhat better than Six. And the season bears watching, because things are reaching their end. Of course, we will have to wait until 2015 to see how it all ends.
PS: We get acknowledgment that Pete Campbell is divorcing Trudy.
