* DoNotDoThisCoolThing: Roger, while tripping out, is told not to look in the mirror. He does, of course.

Don takes Megan to Howard Johnson's on a mix of business and pleasure, sending mixed signals about when he wants a co-worker and when he wants a wife. Megan gets frustrated, and they fight. After she makes a disparaging remark about his mother, Don goes for a drive, and when he returns, Megan has gone. He works himself into a frenzy, calling Peggy (the other side of the conversation we witnessed earlier) and even Megan's mother. Eventually, he drives home and finds her there. After an intense confrontation, they make nice ... for now.

Peggy has a rough day, both personally and professionally. Abe accuses her of always having her mind on her work. At the office, Don and Megan leave for an impromptu trip upstate shortly after turning up, leaving Peggy to front the latest presentation to Heinz. Raymond's not impressed, and Peggy vents her frustration at him, causing her to be dropped from the account. After a couple of drinks, she leaves the office to go to the cinema, where she has a sexual encounter with a stranger. Back at the office, she runs into Ginsberg and his father, who are arguing. She falls asleep in Don's office, only to be woken up by a call from Don, who seems alarmed for no discernible reason. She learns from Ginsberg that he was is adopted and was born in a concentration camp. Affected by this story, she goes home, calls Abe and asks him to come over.
