Sterling Script Lines - S2: Episode 2
1) Paul, to Joan: Long story about some rare wine and there are only so many bottles, "and I have one."
Joan, to Paul: But not a sofa 2) Peggy, to Eugene: Eugene, I'm in the persuasion business, and frankly, I'm disappointed by your presentation. 3) Roger, to Don about John Glenn: I'd like a ticker tape parade for backing out of my driveway and going around the block three times. 4) Don, to Pete: There's life, and there's work. 5) Duck, about American Airlines: It's a serious foothold Don: Oh - a foothold! 6) Duck, to Don: I know how you had it in your head. The President of American Airlines sees a Mohawk ad and says I love the work, get me that guy. Well, I'm sorry it didn't play out that way. 7) Judy, to Trudy: I like to offer a nice bouquet of thoughts. 8) Anita, to Peggy: She's not going to be around forever. Would it kill you to go? 9) Joan, to Paul: Look at you, out there in your poor little rich boy apartment in Newark or wherever. Walkin' around with your pipe and your beard, fallin' in love with that girl just to show how interesting you are. Go ahead - which part is wrong? 10) Lois to Pete: If you want, you can leave him a note. People do that. |

Podcast Time Stamps - Mad Men S2:E2 Flight 1
00:00 Intro
00:50 Ain't no party like a Montclair party, 'cause a Montclair party don't stop
Pro tip: Hide the office typewriter you stole before inviting your colleagues over.
7:00 Roger - "I'd like a ticker tape parade for backing out of my driveway and going around the block three times."
9:25 Flight 1
10:35 Cottage cheese and ketchup, anyone?
12:06 Pete - "I just got off the phone - it's the strangest thing. My father was on that plane."
14:58 Duck - "It's a serious foothold." Don - "Oh, a foothold!"
Sorry, Mohawk. It's not you. It's American Airlines.
17:07 The elephant in the room
A crisis is the best time to give away your questionable decor.
20:18 Cards with neighbors
23:24 You say you'll come at dinner and you already ate? Such a pretty face.
When you visit your mom and she complains about how you don't visit enough.
26:32 He's a little liar
Betty defames her son to the neighbors for tracing a presidential picture at school, but the biggest lie is pretending like Don hasn't achieved master liar status
30:40 Aren't you going to say goodnight?
Is it just us, or do Anita's kids go to bed really early?
32:42 Bets, I'm not gonna fight with you. I'll say whatever you want me to say.
Betty and Don not fighting looks pretty similar to when they're fighting.
35:11 Those are French bulldogs.
Sorry, Pete.
37:03 Epic burn
Joan's take-down of Paul might be the most eviscerating scene on television.
42:02 I'm sure he was proud of you. Some people have trouble saying it.
We'd like to believe you, Duck, but we've met Pete's father.
43:49 What kind of company are we going to be? The kind where everyone owns a summer house.
46:25 You can leave him a note if you want. People do that.
Lois, you are truly a fount of knowledge.
47:38 I had no idea you were in your thirties.
I bet that passive aggressive copy machine placement feels a little less satisfying now.
49:23 You fooled me.
50:44 Maybe something good can come from this.
Or maybe you're shamelessly ambitious.
52:55 Not tonight.
Don doesn't say no very often.
54:06 Peggy goes to Mass
56:19 Closing Song: Temptation is Hard to Fight
