I think that the fact that he jogs just highlights that he is totally mid-life-crisis guy, trying to be young and hip. Miss Farrell is part of a different, proto-Hippie generation, so she is all about health and political correctness, and Francine's husband dabbles with that. Yeah, poor Peggy. I'm not sure that she's ever been truly happy. Elizabeth Moss does a great job conveying complicated emotions happening at once, but her performance makes Peggy seem to just be going through the motions in her personal relationships. Yes, Bert totally knows that Don is not who he says he is. If you recall, Pete tried to blackmail Don in season one, and when Pete dropped the bomb, Bert said "So what?" Now, in this episode, he used that knowledge to persuade Don--very effectively.

Do you think that the somewhat lacivious husband of Francine mentions that he runs because as I now know but don't remember when I learned it that, hat in the car lady aka teacher girl also runs and that is how Don and teacher lady get together. Do we think that hat in the car and husband of Francine also had a thing? I think it's worth noting that in the few dalliances of Pegg'y there seems to be very little spark no emotion or sexual tention...It makes me feel sorry for Peggy. As for Betty's line about Don not knowing where he was going to be in 3 yeaars that was perfect and revealed the tentativeness that he seems to walk through everyone with. Hi lostness and lack of commitment...he sort of sees it as a game, not being owned. Does Bert know Don's true identity though... Why is Bert's approach so effective? ok I am re reading all of your blogs so that I am fully aremd for the end of season finally…
