I haven't seen this week's ep either, yet, so no spoilers here.

The poor man's version of my lost-forever post yesterday was that I think Sofa's theories about Don's secret past are very clever (I'm leaning toward the changed war identity, and the being Jewish). If this week's episode reveals something totally different, then pretend I didn't just say that.

Don (the don) has the loner/cowboy/noir hero role down pat.

Loved x 1000 the kids at the party running around the newly-assembled playhouse mimicking their parents ("I like sleeping on the couch!", etc.). Fucking hilarious.

Oh yeah. Don "Whitman." The name the guy on the train thought he had. Taking a big leap here, purely on a figurative level, I associated that with Don having secret aspirations of being a great writer (like most ad men then & now, right?). His true talent/self being repressed, as he is trapped in his suburban prison.

Also wondered if the shot of him at the train track in his car toward the end was both an echo of the first scene on the train, and an intimation of suicidal thinking.

THAT'S IT.

Looking forward to watching this most recent episode!
