I haven't been posting very much lately, but had to comment. Great episode!!! Thanks to Matt Weiner and MM writers for getting Don and Betty back together - at least that's what it looks like. I've always wanted them together. I guess it's my age - at 57 you realize that the grass is almost never greener. So appreciate what you have and don't go looking for something better because you won't find it. Maybe for awhile, but it never lasts. You have to make what you already have work. Remember, there is a reason why you married the person you married in the first place (and I've been married 32 years to a wonderful man).

I loved the letter Don wrote to Betty. He really loves her. I also think the "affair" with the guy in the bar made her see that it was just sex. She knows Don has had more than one affair. But when the letter came and he wrote "you won't be alone, you'll find someone. But without you, I'll be alone forever. I love you," she realized that his affairs had been just sex also and that she was the woman he truly loved. Don has a lot of respect for Anna Draper and she made him see what really is important in life.

In the end, when Betty told him she was pregnant, I loved it when he took her hand and she had tears in her eyes. With so much trouble in the world (and I remember it well) and everyone not knowing if they were going to live to see another day, Don was telling Betty that it was going to be alright and they could make it together. Excellent ending to season 2. I hope Don doesn't resort to his old cheating ways in season 3. I'd like them to stick more to the Don and Duck and the merger storyline. I can't wait to see what happens there.

By the way, one of my best girlfriends had an abortion in 1971 at the age of 20 by a back alley guy (they didn't become legal until 1973). It was a botched job, she survived but was never able to have children so had to adopt. There isn't a day that goes by without my friend thinking of what that baby might have become. I was really hoping Betty was not going to go down that road, although I am pro-choice in real life. I wanted Betty to tell Don.

And I am blown away by Peggy's decision to tell Pete about the baby. I really didn't think that was going to happen. Pete looked so sad when she left the room. He has always loved her I think and shouldn't have married Trudy. He was already involved with Peggy when he married Trudy.

Yes, well said TangFl. It was satisfying, inevitable that Betty and Don reunite. One wonders why Don Draper has so many sexual encounters. Of course, his looks, that hair, that voice, the aura of confidence and mystery make it very easy for him. But it goes beyond this. As with most promiscuity, Don's repeated trysts are an attempt to feel something, to connect.
