Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDuck's kids reveal to him that their mother, Pauline, is getting remarried, to a man named Franklin Reeve. There was a poet, novelist, translator, and professor of literature at Weslyan University named Franklin D'Olier Reeve who was showrunner Matt Weiner's primary mentor while Weiner was a college student. In an interview with the Paris Review, Weiner said that after he was unable to get into any of the packed writing classes at Weslyan, he went to talk to Professor Reeve one-on-one and Reeve agreed to tutor him individually, which led to Weiner's three semesters of independent study with Reeve. Franklin Reeve died in 2013, long after he heard himself name-checked on this episode of Mad Men and even longer after his son, the actor and disability rights activist Christopher Reeve, died in 2004. Although Franklin Reeve was married four times, none of his wives were named "Pauline."

Featured review
Duck is the Devil
Well it's obvious why Duck ditched his dog... he wanted a drink, that's all... Oh and, hey, did you hear the one about the ducks in the pond... Someone off-shore threw a ball and it was about to hit one duck in the head, and another duck, seeing this, yelled, "JOEL!!!!!"
Anyhow, good episode following a previous good episode... Mostly it's about Peggy's morphing into becoming a progressive woman in business... One of the strip club guys is Peter Jason, an actor who died in John Wayne's arms and was Orson Welles's favorite, and a former interviewee of mine... I think I mentioned this episode... He didn't like talking too much about the past and that's all I did... But being part of this show is like being on Star Trek or Seinfeld... You become part of the fabric...
The story about Pete and the blonde was intriguing, although she looked a bit too modern... Guess it's that whole Marilyn thing, and the fact women in this era depicted were either trying to resemble the wife or mistress of JFK makes me happy I was born when women had braincells.
