Re: MAD about Mad Men
Very cool episode. Despite his overbearing personality, Pete's always held Don in the highest regard. On one hand, he's following in the steps of early Don ... Once Pete turned partner, he's been slowly settling in a new skin. On the other hand, he maintains a very naive perception of Don ("I'm not as virtuous as you, so you leave me in the wind?"). It's one part professional adoration, one part yearning father figure.
Loved the Cosgrove voiceover to end the episode. The brilliant prose not only showcased the character's talent, but also punctuated Pete's emptiness in a creative way.
