Mad Men Episode 12: Nixon vs. Kennedy
Podcast Show Summary: Mad Men Season 1, Episode 12: Nixon vs. Kennedy
In Mad Men Season 1, Episode 12, election results are in the air as the Sterling Cooper office revelry reaches new heights - and lows. Don introduces Duck Phillips to Bert as a candidate for the position as head of accounts, but Pete has other self-serving ideas, and he's willing to go to any lengths to put himself first. Don asks Rachel to run away with him, and it takes a flashback for us to see why Don is always looking forward. You might not be able to control your genius (you're not some boorish hack like Cosgrove), so you'll want to rewatch Mad Men with us!

Sterling Script Lines - S1: Episode 12
1) Harry, about Duck Phillips: I hear he disintegrated in London. Got involved with a woman at the British Museum.
Paul: Her name was Rosetta. Rosetta Stone. 2) Joan, on election night: If I let you into that supply closet, it is not going to be the sack of Rome. 3) Marge, to Peggy, after witnessing Ken chase Allison across the office to announce the color of her underwear: I used to think I'd find a husband here. 4) Ken, to Paul: I found a play in one act, by Paul Kinsey. Peter Tollefson - an animal in the board room and the bedroom. 5) Sal, as Paul's lead character in the play: I can't control my genius. I'm not some boorish hack like Cosgrove. 6) Don, to Bert about the election: It doesn't seem fair. Bert: Fair? Very good. 7) Rachel, to Don: You don't want to run away with me. You just want to run away. 8) Pete, to Don: Is this a thing like in the movies where I have a gun and you don't think I'm going to shoot you? I will shoot you. 9) Bert Cooper: Mr. Campbell, who cares? 10) Woman on the train: You've got your whole life ahead of you. Forget that boy in the box. |
