I worked in high end ladies wear never drank on the job but same friendly attitude is what sells women would tell me their life stories half the time while I give them clothes I listen and give advice and opinions about their issues and clothes. It's not a boring meeting it's sales.
I'm in advertising and I've done a version of this myself. Don might not have done so intentionally, sometimes a client can overthink a pitched concept. Reframe the context to give them a chance to respond to in on a more instantaneous level and they might just realise they like it after all.
I love how Don just keeps going even after Pete tries to cut him off, "Give me a minute!" What I also love is how the clients don't seem to mind at all that Don is drunk off his ass. He just drunkenly spits out whatever slogan comes to mind, and while everyone else is visibly uncomfortable, it doesn't even seem to register with the clients.
The clients are caught up in the euphoria too. They enjoy Don's success, they enjoy a little whisky, he's a hotshot. The typical would have been their disproving looks. But this is way more realistic.
@@moncorp1 Except he was too drunk and pitched them a slogan he got from someone else, and he was forced to solve that problem too. So, yes, Don definitely needed to mind his limits there.
@@paulallen579 Except there wasn’t any real problem by taking the ad. Jim and Dennis bought the edited and stolen line. So hiring Danny wasn’t a problem because they could afford him and they gave him some work to do that nobody else wanted to do. It was a surprise win win, Don being the lucky son of a bitch he is, made it happen when he would have at any other moment, failed. That’s was really hilarious. He went off script wildly but won the clients over so nobody cares at all that he did that. But he does that same last second audible with Hersey and blows it because the potential clients don’t like the message or that Don cried in the meeting. They should all have seen what happened here as the real sign that Don needed help and nobody did anything.
Pete's look of internal panic and horror at 2:52 is awesome! I love how the situation seems to be escalating into an awkward trainwreck and then Don just brings it home into a perfect slam dunk.
@@Lucifronz Agreed. Especially Quaker Oats. They’re a big company. If hiring one schlep means securing that account, that’s just good business in my opinion
Best part is the follow up near the end of the episode when Peggy tells Don he stole the idea from that dumb kid. The pure revulsion and disdain in Don having to concede defeat was hilarious.
Everyone’s mentioning how drunk Don is but I actually also noticed that the two Life execs are also pretty tipsy. Maybe that’s why they pick Danny’s idea in the end!
I love when he has that look and is somewhat silly. Very likable character. Haven't seen such a great in depth characters since breaking bad with walter white.
Scott Demoss I’m watching it for the third time on Netflix you are right it does get better and better I am on season 4 episode 3 it’s crazy because I discovered the show about one year ago maybe two
I think the entire show could just be a discetion of the fact that Don Draper is a hypocrite and a flawed and selfish individual. This is just one of the many ways he applies different rules to everyone else than he does to himself.
Missing the context of the earlier scene whereby we know Don has accidentally/drunkenly stolen the "Cure for the common breakfast" line from a pathetic hack who tried (and failed) to get a job at the agency. That's why Peggy looks so infuriated. She knows they can't actually use it regardless of how much the client loves it.
Peggy only gets to tell Don two days later. He goes off after the presentation goes to bed drunk with one girl and wakes up with another he doesn't recognise with no recollection of the lost day.
I love how he's just recycling themes and ideas from his genius pitch for the carousel in season 1. He delivered that pitch the verve and poignancy. Now his creative powers have wained. He's become a bloated, drunken exec, throwing things at the wall to see what sticks. It'll be interesting to see if he brings back the old ingenious Don next season.
That’s wrong . Season 4 Don was at his peak in career , psychologically, and physically. He was swimming , writing his thoughts out and had a clear head not drinking as much. S1 he was young and fresh. S4 he was peak and then he went downhill in the latter years
The sets on the show, the office decor was so authentic and so precise, its as if the show was actually made in the 60s. ive seen pictures of office interior decor of that time and Mad Mens decor was exactly the same if not better, that is why it was such a brilliant show
My dad was a V.P. in a big insurance company in the 60s and I asked him if there was really that much drinking in the office. He said if you had a big client in town it wasn't uncommon at all. They also had guys like Pete who would get the client anything they wanted including booze, dope or women.
WOW! The detail in this scene! Only The Sopranos and Breaking Bad can rival this. To look over what we see: 1. Don is drunk and is COMPLETELY a caricature of his own self. Amazing how they wrote this and how Jon Hamm acted and pulled it off 2. The detail with the jealousy of Peggy! She IMMEDIATELY snatches that award like it's hers, then to make matters worse, parades around the room with Don and Roger who are intoxicated and Peggy being sober. She feels like she deserves that award for her own self so badly she rejoices in every glimmering moment that she can - because (example of great writing) the audience has seen over the course of the show how Peggy prematurely asks for things, can be somewhat conniving when getting her way - and we see later on in the episode when Peggy and Don argue about the award that she almost feels like that award belongs to her. Amazing.
I do not think she "paraded" around the room, but was having fun with Don and Roger. They just won a prestigious award, let them celebrate. I would be akin to high fives. Good morale builds good workers.
The little details like Peggy holding the award for a long time and have it snatched from her. I remember she was feeling bitter she didn't get recognition for helping make the idea that won this award.
I love how many people forget the fact that the exact slogan they ended up going with, was one that Don directly shat on and then fired the person who put the idea forward. He's not only drunkenly stumbling into success, the catalyst for that success was someone he directly disparaged.
The point is that he’s not as naturally talented and gifted as he was during the carousel speech. He’s jaded and resorts to stealing someone else’s pitch. Kind of a shadow of the suave salesman he was in the early seasons
I swear it's the same for me: I've made some of my best impressions while drunk in a suit and with eyes on me. And my name is almost Don - it's Dan. Lmao
Life - see you spoon! Life - you don't wanna be dry. Life is like a box of chocolates - just without chocolate. Always look on the full box of life. Your dog, your kids your wife - your life!

That would would have been something to live during that era!
Don hits a home run this time. However, the scene presages his problems with alcohol and the difficulty it ultimately causes him. Such experiences lead Don to believe he can act anyway that he wants and still succeed. While this was some brilliant maneuvering on his part, he is riding for a fall and it becomes more and more evident.
the dynamics in this scene is on point with every actor and actress. with Roger and Don storming in with high spirits, and the clients having a couple of drinks, it really elevated the mood. the fact that Don has zero attachment to the result whether or not the clients will like his pitch of slogans is congruent. he doesn't even worry about embarrassing himself, combined with the fact that he's so self-assured of what he's doing especially after winning that award. you can tell on Pete, Harry and Peggys faces that they are worried. Pete tries to course correct for Don to avoid losing the account. the worry and anxiety actually brought the mood down in the room, but Don was able to control the room and continue his pitch. what we can learn here is to be able to genuinely express oneself without inhibition and be damn confident and take control of situations when needed.
No, she's actually pissed off, because she knows that the agency CAN'T use that slogan; Don stole it from someone else who was trying to get into the agency lol

you can tell on Pete, Harry and Peggys faces that they are worried. Pete tries to course correct for Don to avoid losing the account. the worry and anxiety actually brought the mood down in the room, but Don was able to control the room and continue his pitch.
what we can learn here is to be able to genuinely express oneself without inhibition and be damn confident and take control of situations when needed.
damn straight, but in real life some inhibition is very welcomed
1:16 this guy is in better call Saul. I’m pretty sure it’s in “Namaste” where jimmy tricks him by swapping defendants in court.
The clap into "Ok, everybody ready? SO."
Glad to see Valery Legasov pursue a happier carrer in this alternate timeline, though i wonder what became of chernobyl without him
This is so funny on so so many levels.
Jon Hamm is an incredible actor...............he reminds me of a movie star actor from the 1950's like a Bogart or Cagney.............
LOL the drunk acting is so fucking spot on, can't tell if hes actually drunk or not.
The blank drunken stare he does is so spot on
3:17 I love how they cut to Peggy after that. Peggy looking up tells us she knows: "That's it".
No, she's actually pissed off, because she knows that the agency CAN'T use that slogan; Don stole it from someone else who was trying to get into the agency lol
