Don Draper Dodges Department of Defense Disquisition

If anyone from the DoD asks, this podcast is not for communists. On the latest episode, comedian and co-host of Struggle Bus Live, Nick Viagas, joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season four episode ten, “Hands and Knees.”

Tough week for the fellas at SCDP. Lane’s papa comes to visit and he’s so excited to meet Lane’s new “chocolate bunny” girlfriend (Lane’s words) that he bashes his son in the head with a cane. British people have weird ways of showing affection.

Don’s got G-men sniffing around for a background check related to Pete’s North American Aviation account, and they show up at Betty’s doorstep to ask if her ex-husband “Don Draper” is “loyal.” She’s like, uhhhh he’s definitely not a different guy with a different name. Ultimately what he is is a deserter so, much to Pete’s chagrin, they have to spike the NAA deal.

Roger might win the award for maddest man this week. Joan is pregnant despite being married to a guy who’s in Vietnam, and Lucky Strike is taking their business to BBDO. Roger responds by promising to raise the child with Joan as his wife, and tells the partners about Lucky Strike immediately so they can form a plan. Lol yeah right. He suggests Joan could trick her husband into raising the kid as his own, yells at Pete for losing the NAA account, and doesn’t say a word about losing SCDP’s biggest, and his only, account. It’s too bad Joan got an abortion, it would have been fun seeing how terrible Roger is at being a parent for a young child.
