Peggy leaving the agency. I trust the writers there. My concern is that, arguably, the partners of SCDP didn't act like themselves when they agreed to ask Joan to prostitute herself. I'm still undecided as to if the characters acted out-of-character for the purposes of the plot. If so, it'd be the show's first major misstep

I think the juxtaposition of Joan in the conference room during the celebration to Peggy leaving was phenomenal. The old way and the new way that women are valuable in the business world. The door opening and Peggy's smile and Joan's (more subtle) but still obvious stride through the men on the way to the conference room. The women have arrived. Poor Don Draper, can't control anything anymore.
