Sterling Script Lines - S3: Episode 6
1) Roger, about PP&L's visit: They're flying across the ocean to have their knobs polished.
2) Betty, to Bobby: Go bang your head against a wall. Only boring people are bored. Bobby, about Gene: Can I pet him? 3) Joan, to Mr. Hooker: When you wake up in the middle of the night and wonder what you forgot, don't call me. 4) Greg, to Joan, about the chief of surgery: He sat me down in his office and poured a drink and said I had no brains in my fingers. 5) Powell/Ford to Lane: Don't pout. One of your greatest qualities is you always do as you're told. 6) Bert, to Guy, about the reorganization: Mr. Sterling's not on that chart at all. Roger (looking): That's true. 7) Bert, to Roger: We took their money. We have to do what they say. 8) Harry/Paul: He might lose his foot. Roger: Right when he got it in the door. 9) Lane, to Don: I feel like I just went to my own funeral. I didn't like the eulogy. 10) Don, to Sally: This is your little brother. And he's only a baby. We don't know who he is yet, or who he's going to be. And that is a wonderful thing. |

Things We Should Have Said
- Joan has a policy against crying in the break room, but in this episode, she cries in front of the entire office when presented with the farewell cake
- Guy says there will be no further redundancies, and Harry is the only one in the room to start clapping
- We talk about Betty's awkward attempt to bribe Sally with a Barbie, but didn't mention her line, "You are very important to me, too." We're wondering if Betty ever says I love you to her kids in the show.
- The lesson of the City & Country Mouse fable, of course, is that security with simple fare is preferable to elegance accompanied by fear, which is another apt description of Don Draper's situation.
