46:53 Don: I wanted to tell you, it's not worth it. If we don't get Jaguar, so what. Who wants to be in business with people like that?

We were able to edit most of them, but in a couple of places it sounds like Jenna is interrupting - we promise that was not the case! We had to keep a few instances so you could hear the end of Steve's thought and the beginning of Jenna's, and we apologize for that issue, as it wasn't evident during recording. Please believe Jenna doesn't interrupt Steve (unless he's hogging the chip and dip)!

00:00 Introduction
00:59 "Why don't we go to church every Sunday?" "We don't need to go every week."
Carla, Betty, and the kids discuss their day, but avoid discussing core beliefs.
Don says he won't be sleeping at home tonight, blaming Conrad Hilton.
02:52 Date Nut Bread and The Color Blue
Shockingly, Don lied and goes to Suzanne's, while Betty is home alone with a glass of wine.
11:04 40th Anniversary of Sterling Cooper and Aqua Net - Arrive in Style
Paul Kinsey sets up a double date skit, and Peggy improves it off the top of her head
15:15 "We finally have the answer to the question What makes Don Draper smile?"
Lane gives Don his $5,000 signing bonus
16:20 "I don't need you to put your little swirl on top of my idea." You kind of do, though, Paul. Little bit.
21:01 "It's not London. It's not even England."
Rebecca Pryce hasn't warmed to New York, unlike her husband
24:33 "He's arrogant. His plans were interrupted."
Don and Suzanne greet Danny, Suzanne's brother.
29:30 They're celebrating 40 years at Sterling Cooper, but Bert and Roger aren't in the mood
31:42 Who can it be now?
When you have romantic entanglements outside your marriage and you get a mystery call on the landline, things get awkward.
33:25 Paul Kinsey stays late and sets up his ideal work conditions for Western Union.
Paul Kinsey theatre, indeed.
34:50 Don leaves his key in his robe, and that's not a euphemism
35:19 "Achilles, I have thought of something very, very good."
If it takes stealing someone else's food from the work room fridge, it will have been worth it.
37:50 There and back again - the journey of the office desk drawer key
38:23 My baby takes the morning train, so I show up to ride along
Don seems in love enough to forgive Suzanne's indiscretion
44:55 "It's always the last place you look."

Henry is an unlikely candidate for calling and hanging up, but Betty checks, just in case.
52:21 "Who told you I was vain?"
Lane convinces Bert to attend the party, without seeming too desperate or revealing his secret.
53:40 Worst unboxing moment ever
The triumph of finally finding the key to the desk drawer Betty's been rattling for years is overshadowed by photos, the deed to a house in California, and a divorce decree that precedes their marriage by mere months.
57:25 Don attempts to take Danny to New Bedford
This time, he gives his card - not just the money

We beg to differ, Lee Garner Junior. #JusticeForSal
Also, "I'm not going to do anything stupid like I usually do."
#YouAbsolutelyWill,Harry
40:24 "You're like a son to me."
47:02 "I wanted to see you. I drove past your exit a dozen times."
49:04 This Lucky Strike meeting is somehow worse than the one when Roger had a heart attack
50:51 Every time we watch, we hope this scene goes differently
1:00:50 Don, we're hosting a fundraiser
1:02:26 "Good night, boss."
1:03:03 Let's have a fundraiser
1:03:37 "How do you say fresh towels in Farsi? Hilton."
But the lesser bully wanted the moon.
1:09:03 "I'm actually the person who briefs Mr. Francis."
When the guest speaker takes the fun out of your fundraiser
1:15:52 "What do you think accounts does? Besides limit your brilliance."
"I'd tell you, but I don't want to hurt your feelings."
1:17:41 "Maybe it's not supposed to happen right now."
1:21:18 Sal has a genuine conversation with Kitty and lives happily ever after with Elliot from Belle Jolie. He definitely doesn't just call Kitty from a pay phone near Central Park. And he starts his own firm, "where copy follows art, not the other way round," and gets everything he ever wanted. That's what should have happened.
1:22:33 "You only want this because I'm new and different. I know how this ends."

Betty has hired an interior decorator to re-do her living room.
03:24 "I watched the sunrise this morning." "How was it?" "Average."
Roger is unimpressed with nature, likely because he's jealous of David Ogilvy.
05:35 "Having me in your life is gonna change things." "I look forward to it."
Conrad Hilton surprises Don in the office.
10:26 "I may know someone in the governor's office. His name is Henry."

15:57 "I just realized everyone who calls you must want something."
Betty calls Henry's office, and he returns the call immediately
20:14 "Stop barging in here and infecting me with your anxiety."

23:15 "This is the way it has to be. Not just for Conrad Hilton, but for Sterling Cooper."
Don's lack of a contract becomes a meeting
27:41 "I'm a lawyer, but I don't use it much." "We all have skills we don't use."

36:46 "Grunt once for yes."
Roger applies pressure to make Don sign his contract.
39:20 "You're good. Get better. Stop asking for things. Close the door."
Don excels at mentorship and manners.
41:41 "Honestly, I find it terribly disrespectful that you would go behind his back," Betty tells Roger on the phone, after returning from the lunch she had with Henry, behind Don's back
42:50 "I was just thinking about all the times I walked by you and didn't even notice." "Oh." "How is that possible?" The nicest thing we can say about Duck is that at least he's not Pete. #LeaveTheDuckTakeTheHermes
46:18 "It's three years, Don. What's the matter - you don't know where you're going to be in three years?
48:01 "Want to know why we're going to Niagara Falls? We're getting married."
Don, this is your survival instinct. Don't smother me with drugs and alcohol when you rage road trip.
53:48 Flash-forwards all revealed and wrapped
54:59 "After all, when it comes down to it, who's really signing this contract, anyway?"

06:10 Dammit, Paul, someone helped Ken cherry pick the most successful accounts and I've been left with the dogs
08:02 They waste paper because they use it to sop up spilled drinks, right after their afternoon naps
10:20 Except I actually have an Uncle Herman, and he's 91
12:13 I don't know why I'm calling. I'm embarrassing myself.
14:13 Hang in there, Bets.
17:35 You throw the ball around? Not enough.
Or ever. I think Don has had exactly two scenes with just Bobby.
24:55 I don't want him. I don't know him. I want my doctor.
28:19 If something happens to her I just don't know what I'd do. And there'd be that baby. How could I love that baby?
31:38 I'm just a housewife. Why are you doing this to me?
34:00 I'm sayin' this to you. I'm gonna be better. I'm gonna be a better man. Tell me you heard me.
36:54 You're a house cat. You're very important, and you have little to do.
41:07 I need his initials. Jane's gonna put them on the back of a yacht or something.
42:02 If you want to woo me, you're going to have to buy me my own lunch.
46:12 Look, this is important, and I'd like to have an honest conversation with you. It's just us, Hollis and . . . Mr. Campbell.
52:14 Wave to Mommy and Gene
52:55 Not all surprises are bad
55:35 We don't talk in the hallway
Is he embarrassed? Is Don not good enough for him? Is he actually there?
57:12 This conversation is not worth having.
Admiral declines Pete's marketing recommendation, even though it's financially sound.
1:01:09 You have everything. And so much of it.
And yet, he's a soulless husk of a man.
1:05:52 Your decisions affect me.
Yes, Pete. It's all about you.
1:07:52 His name is Gene. (Not great, Betty.)
1:09:06 It seems illogical that they would reject the opportunity to make more money.

11:07 I'm your little girl. And I know it must be horrible to be looking at - whatever it is you're looking at. But can't you keep it to yourself?

15:49 Seeing her on my wedding day's going to ruin it. She's young enough to be my sister.
18:08 What does he want? A Cyrano de Bergerac to make New York fall in love with him.
19:37 I even got Gloria a chicken parmesan. Well, great - we'll mail it to her. She's in Boca Raton. She's not coming back!
21:01 It's so crowded in here, I feel like I'm on the subway. [Fawning laughter]
22:28 All of a sudden I could give two craps about that wedding. All I want to do is win.
25:17 Let's say change is neither good nor bad - it simply is. It can be greeted with terror or joy. A tantrum that says "I want it the way it was," or a dance that says "Look - something new."
28:17 Those homes are for people who don't have families, William.
31:37 You're an army man, Gene. Drop your socks and grab something.
36:07 Bye Bye Birdie, Peggy style
38:50 You told me to go out and get this account. I did. I did my job, and now you're telling me it's all for nothing because you forgot to check with your boss first.
40:04 Peggy, you understand how this works. Men want her, women want to be her.
43:46 You're the only one around here who doesn't have that stupid look on her face.
44:37 Where's your drink?
45:56 You want him? You got him.
49:48 I work at an ad agency in Manhattan. And I work for a real jerk.
52:03 The heat is on. We've got to get rid of the stuff.
53:10 This was fun.
55:17 We dance around the pole in a timeless celebration of the renewal of springtime.

Mad Men C to Z S3:E1 Out of Town
In the Season 3 premiere of Mad Men, Don and Sal take a business trip to Baltimore, Pete is thrilled to be promoted to Head of Accounts . . . until he isn't, and we meet Lane Pryce, from PP&L. We go back in time to see Dick Whitman's birth and see Don and Betty are preparing for their new child together. Limit your exposure, grab your ant farm, and re-watch with us!
Mad Men C to Z Podcast Episode Time Stamps:
00:00 Introduction
00:47 Dick Whitman's origin story
05:45 Her name was Lola / She was a secretary. / And while John's accent made her flushed / Peggy looked on in disgust
06:43 "Who was the man who imagined her ecstasy?" "Who, indeed." Is it the sucking up that connects the painting to your business? We have questions, Bert.
13:42 "I wanted to inform you that you're the new Head of Accounts." "Excuse me?" "It seemed like the right thing to do, in spite of your lack of hospitality."
19:12 "I wouldn't be much of an account man if I didn't ask what it pays." "And I wouldn't be much of a financial officer if I wasn't prepared to disappoint you."
21:15 "I've never seen a stewardess that game." Jenna and Steve disagree about Shelly here - Jenna argues it's a departure for Don because Shelly gives no evidence of being complex or challenging, which is usually a requirement for Don's notice and interest.
24:24 "I've always been a big fan of your work, and I've been very vocal about it."
25:27 "I've been married a long time. You get lots of chances."
35:48 The fire alarm brings everything to a "screechin' halt." What does Don Draper do with someone else's secret?
37:50 "Why is she shamelessly flirting with Moneypenny?" "Don't call him that. He hates that." Why can't Joan and Peggy align and give us the glorious girl power duo we envision?
39:42 " 'Our worst fears lie in anticipation.' That's not me - that's Balzac."
42:08 "You're each taking half the company. Of course, it's possible someone could distinguish himself. It would be easier that way."
45:48 Limit your exposure
47:47 This office comes with a complimentary ant farm
48:46 "The buck stops here unless it stops over there. There are two heads of accounts. Kenny Cosgrove and I are sharing it."
55:12 Just kidding - you aren't worthy of the ant farm. It's unseemly.
58:08 What did you bring me, Daddy? Well, I inadvertently brought home a stick pin belonging to the stewardess I slept with last night. Would you like to wear it?

Podcast Time Stamps:
00:00 Introduction
00:40 "You're hungover - I can smell it."
Do we think Father Gil and Peggy really have romantic chemistry, or are they just two forward-thinking young people surrounded by traditionalists in Brooklyn?
02:16 "What's with you?"
Don is into Betty this Sunday morning. Is it just because she's there, or is there actual hope for their marriage?
05:05 "Go watch T.V."
Betty and Don spend quality time drinking their way through Sunday afternoon, and mostly ignoring their kids.
08:28 "That was beautiful. Are you going to say grace now?"
Father Gil acts as a celebrity guest when he visits Peggy and her family for dinner.
11:36 "Whatever she wants."
Roger and Mona try to convince Margaret and Brooks to have a conventional wedding. Is Roger uncharacteristically quiet because he's disappointed in his daughter, or because he's jealous of her?
15:48 "I don't know that I'm your audience."
More debate over whether Father Gil and Peggy have romantic sparks as she offers him presentation tips.
19:35 "Great - you broke it. You were being wild in the house."
Betty can't stop blaming Bobby today. Why hold your cheating spouse accountable, when you can vent on your six-year-old son instead, I guess?
20:42 "Aha! Second time around - that explains it."
Roger is enamored with the Gorton rep's "wife," his love for frozen scrod notwithstanding.
22:34 "Will you sell it for me?"
Bobbie Barrett approaches Don with an idea for a television show. Why is he so disinterested in this project? We get the sense he would have jumped at the chance to work with Rachel on something like this.
26:00 "Do you think you'd be the man you are today if your father didn't hit you?"
No, Betty. He almost certainly would not.
30:52 "I want to go with Daddy."
Pancake pain, Saturday in the office, and Pete's glorious weekend tennis outfit
37:27 "Isn't that the perfect thing to say?"
Roger Sterling: charming man-about-town or world's most selfish man-child?
39:56 "How could it be my gum? My gum's in my mouth."
Sally makes awkward conversation in the office, Peggy ignores serious side-eye from the office secretaries, and Duck tries to hold everything together as Don and the team build the American Airlines campaign.
45:27 "I'm meeting a friend."
While the team works in the office, Roger plans to take Vicky to Lutece. Conrad Hilton's not the only one who wants what he wants when he wants it.
47:59 "It's so nice he can get to know her without all her troubles."
Is Anita right to resent Peggy, or is she taking it too far?
49:58 "Shel Keneally was fired this morning."
51:38 "What about me, Father? What about my troubles? What about me being good?"
We continue the discussion about Anita and Peggy's relationship here, and whether Anita is justified in telling Father Gil. Is it really about her confession, or about outing Peggy's secret so he won't admire her so much?
57:38 "Old business is just old business"
Roger brushes off the loss of American Airlines
1:00:19 "Don - do something!"
The robot probably deserved better. This might be the most revealing thing Don has ever told Betty about himself.
1:08:12 "For the little one"
Was this the relationship Peggy and Father Gil should have always had? Or is he enjoying his acquired knowledge in a way most unbecoming?
