Mad Men

We open on Grandpa Gene, Sally and Bobby heading out to his Lincoln.  Guess who's driving?   Grandpa's working the gas, but it's Sally at the wheel while Bobby sits in the back, looking happy.

Peggy is visiting her sister and mom.  Peggy confides she wants to move to Manhattan to her sister, who is fairly supportive.  "You really want to be one of those girls?" she asks.  "I am one of those girls," Peggy confidently replies.

The comic relief of the episode arrives in the form of Ho Ho, a former classmate of Pete Campbell's, who wants to bring Jai Alai to America.  Ho Ho is the son of a shipping scion, and he wants to spend his money on Paxti and Jai Alai, and Pete is the man who wants to help him.  They meet with Pryce, Sal, Harry, and Paul, and come up with a plan for Paxti to star in an adventure program, run a musical spectacular on all three networks at once, ads in ladies magazines - not to mention radio.  Pryce says it's not really worth their time unless Ho Ho is willing to make an initial commitment of a million dollars.  Ho Ho readily agrees, saying it's only a third of his ad budget.  The men need drool buckets.   Don pops in to say hello, and gets a dinner invite from Ho Ho.    Pete sees Ho Ho out, and returns to a dressing down from Don, who thinks the whole thing was undignified, and that Ho Ho's dad, Horace Sr, would be pissed about the whole thing, especially since he has close ties to Bert Cooper.    Pete argues it's their job to help make Ho Ho's dream a reality, and Pryce backs him up.
