It's 1962 in Mad Men, Season Two! Peggy's a copywriter, Pete and Trudy are hoping to have a baby, and Don and Betty are trying to celebrate Valentine's Day. This S2:E1 episode sets up some significant story arcs, including Don's mentorship of Peggy, friction between Don and Duck - and, more broadly - between an accounts-first mentality and the creative process, as well as Joan's new romance, Sal's marriage, Betty's horseback riding hobby, and the growing youth mindset of the sixties. Buy a boat, stop writing for other writers, and bring your macaroni valentines for our re-watch of For Those Who Think Young!
