You know, I am reminded of the race conversation a little bit, where Peggy was resentful that black people got a civil rights movement while she had to work her way up on her own. I can definitely see that coming out with Megan - Peggy is very self-righteous and tends to look down on anyone who didn't work as hard as she did to get where they are.
I don't feel like I have a very good understanding of Megan, so I'm not sure what she wants, lol. She was very deliberate in her come-on to Don - was she planning to marry her boss all along, or did she truly fall in love and just lucked out that marriage comes with a promotion? And does that mean that her interest in copywriting is genuine, or just something she said to appeal to Don?
Joan's promotion seemed so poorly thought-out. Why even give her the title if there's no money to go along with it? It's almost more insulting than getting nothing at all.
