Part 1: The Beginning
791"Time Zones"Scott HornbacherMatthew WeinerApril 13, 2014 (2014-04-13)2.27[10]
In January 1969, as Richard Nixon delivers his inaugural speech on television, Don—suspended after losing Hershey—travels to California to repair his marriage to Megan while secretly funneling copy to Freddy. Peggy clashes with her new superior, Lou Avery, whose condescension frustrates the creative team. With Pete in Los Angeles, Ken becomes Head of Accounts and grows volatile; after a tense meeting, Joan persuades Butler Footwear’s sexist new marketing chief not to drop SC&P. Roger experiments with the counterculture, and Margaret tells him she has forgiven him as part of a spiritual awakening. Pete embraces Los Angeles life, while Ted immerses himself in work and has an awkward encounter with Peggy in New York. Now a landlord, Peggy tires of tenant demands. In California, Don and Megan dine pleasantly with her agent and begin reconciling, though Don plans to split time between coasts. Megan asserts independence—driving, setting household rules, and objecting when Don buys a color television without consulting her. On his return flight, Don confides in a sympathetic widow that he has been a bad husband. Peggy cries alone on her apartment floor while Don sits outside in the cold, disheveled and near tears.

A month later, tensions flare at SC&P on Valentine’s Day.

Don declines a rival agency’s recruitment overture, remaining loyal to SC&P. Peggy mistakenly believes flowers delivered to her secretary Shirley are from Ted and asks Joan for a new assistant. Sally visits the office unexpectedly, forcing Lou to awkwardly lie about Don’s absence while Dawn, still secretly assisting Don and passing him information, is out buying him a Valentine’s gift; Lou demands a replacement for Dawn. Observing Joan juggling personnel duties and partnership responsibilities, Cutler urges her to relinquish personnel and move fully into Accounts; despite Bert’s objection to a black receptionist, Joan promotes Dawn to head of personnel.

Meanwhile, Don and Sally reconnect when he admits he is on leave, and she confesses she used a roommate’s family funeral partly as a pretext to shop in Manhattan.

He secures an offer from a rival firm and presents it to Roger as leverage to regain his position. Roger agrees but neglects to inform the partners; when Don appears at the office, Roger, Joan, Cutler, and Bert debate his fate. Though Joan, Cutler, and Bert favor firing Don, Roger notes they cannot afford to buy back his shares. Don is reinstated under strict written conditions: demoted from creative director to copywriter, reporting to Lou, and subject to immediate dismissal and forfeiture of shares for any infraction. Peggy’s conflict with Lou worsens when she learns he submitted only Ginsberg’s work for Clio consideration, excluding hers. Harry urges Cutler to acquire a computer to modernize media operations.

Roger learns his daughter Margaret—now calling herself “Marigold”—has joined a hippie commune; he and Mona visit, but Margaret refuses to return, citing Roger’s past neglect as justification for abandoning her own maternal duties. Cutler installs an IBM computer in the creative lounge; Don befriends the installer and urges Bert to pursue the company as a client, but Bert reminds him he cannot seek business without partner approval. Pete discovers Burger Chef is reviewing McCann Erickson; the partners assign Don to the account over Lou’s objections, and Lou puts Peggy in charge with a raise, hoping she or Don will fail.

At a dinner party, Betty clashes with Henry over her outspoken views on Vietnam; after Sally breaks her nose in a golf club fight, Betty reacts angrily, and Bobby fears divorce and suggests running away with Sally. Don visits Megan in California and attends a party with her acting friends; Harry later tells him that Lou and Cutler are courting Philip Morris’ Commander cigarettes and intend to fire him. Megan attempts to revive their marriage by initiating a threesome with Don and her friend Amy. Returning to New York, Don interrupts Lou and Cutler’s meeting with Philip Morris executives to defend his value, citing his anti-tobacco letter.

With Chevy gone, Cutler suggests promoting the agency’s computer and making Harry a partner. At a spa, Roger encounters McCann Erickson executive Jim Hobart, who signals interest in acquiring SC&P. Pete brings Bonnie to New York but abandons her to visit his daughter in Connecticut; angered by Trudy’s absence and ensuing argument, he alienates Bonnie, who returns to California without him. Megan visits New York and, despite an outwardly cordial reunion with Don, removes many belongings from their apartment. Meanwhile, Peggy surveys Burger Chef locations and devises a strong campaign, but Pete insists Don deliver the pitch.

With Roger, Pete, and Bert’s backing, Don blocks Cutler's attempt to oust him. The nation watches the live broadcast of the first Moon landing; Bert dies in his sleep shortly afterward. With Don’s future uncertain, he asks Peggy to lead the Burger Chef presentation; she delivers a successful pitch and wins the account. To counter Cutler, Roger secretly negotiates with McCann Erickson to sell 51% of SC&P while keeping it an independent subsidiary with himself as president; the partners accept five-year contracts, Don persuades Ted to agree, and Cutler relents.

At McCann Erickson, Peggy and Joan attend a meeting where Joan is sexually harassed, leading to a heated argument between the two afterward. Roger and Ferg Donnelly of McCann fire Ken due to McCann’s lingering resentment over his role in losing Birds Eye and disparaging the agency. Though Cynthia urges Ken to leave advertising to write full-time, he instead accepts a position at Dow Chemical through his father-in-law and warns Roger and Pete he will make Dow a difficult client out of spite.
