Mad Men: When In Rome, Do As The Drapers Do

daft Men’s latest episode, “Souvenir”, was a shafting-filled jaunt with and without seal of approval, an episode fueled by lust and passion and inhibitions and Italy and whisker and Don and Betty Draper’s back Honeymoon.
But because this blog likes to keep to things “light” and “unrapey”, we’ll consign to oblivion about that whole “Pete Campbell’s Arapian Nights” report line and focus on what in reality made the episode worth watching from and over again: Don and Betty’s freak out to Rome.
Betty be all during town with a new man named Henry, the sway adviser and silver fox second one to that ol’ cad Roger true. He saves the reservoir at the diocese Council meeting, and Betty thanks him in the frame of a lingering kiss. Because recall girls, “You don’t kiss boys. Boys relinquish you.” She then does a cheap dance in the kitchen because the “reservoir” was “saved” (quotes represent sluttiness):

Well, now she’s gone and curse at done it. There’s a reasoning why she has three kids, America, and that by virtue of is “woman got needs”. So when Don tells her that he’s jetting in error to Rome with the inventor of mustachio nuts, Connie Hilton, Betty, in this day motivated by stirrings down there and “feloniousness”, asks to come along.
Which is how we locate ourselves in Rome, Italy. To fully make use of the rest of this recap, humour click play for the below long explanation – Sophie Loren’s “Zoo Be Chinese fire-drill Be Zoo.”

Roma! Ah, a bishopric of divine smells and ancient recital, a city packed to the edge with attractive Europeans and fashion and wine and marvellous hair salons! No, really:

We remark Betty sitting at a cafe with an thorough challah hot glued to her forehead, as two earnest Italians — who, really, we refuse to confidence in were actors vs. men just in the picture — hit on this WASP-faced advantage.
And who knew that beneath that grey gaze of hers was an solid working brain? And one that speaks Italian no less. My, my, Betty, you do luxuriate more intriguing each episode. As Betty is being verbally assaulted near our alternate-universe Silvio’s, Don Draper rolls wrong of a GQ Magazine cover and into a rocking-chair at the table next to Betty’s. It’s the ol’ “Pick-Up a alien, Wait That’s No Stranger, That’s My chain” trick that we’ve seen no so innumerable times before. And it works a highly f**kable charm.

Because genuinely, why talk about anything else that happened on the appearance, when these photos exist?

So yes, our uptight Betty seemed to entertain all the men globally striving to make known be revealed her fire — literally, with a lighter. And after all of her fraction beehiving, morning sexing, Don doing ways — to amusement…

…we return back to their suffocating being in New York’s Westchester.

The corporeal question being: When will Betty’s reservoir recover saved?
Finally, Sally still sucks.
