After their day together Bob and Joan sit down for drinks. Bob pulls out an engagement ring and Joan tells him to put it away, she reminds him that he “shouldn’t be with a woman.” He informs her he is leaving the agency and moving on to Buick and they require a “certain kind of executive,” like a straight married one.

Peggy and Don are drinking and brainstorming ad ideas late into the night. Peggy reveals that she just turned thirty and she doesn’t know anything about the Moms in the commercial they are trying to put together. Don reassures her that she is “doing great” and offers her his handkerchief. She realizes that a perfect commercial would be if “there was a place where anyone could go and break bread and the people there were your family.” She writes it down and then Don takes her hand and they slow dance in her office to “I Did It My Way.”
The partners have a meeting and learn that they lost the account with Chevy, Roger is livid. And, he is even more livid when he learns they are considering naming Henry Crane partner.
Pete heads to Burger Chef and sits down to eat with Peggy and Don, Peggy announces she is going to shoot the commercial at the restaurant and it isn’t going to be about Moms, it is “going to be about family.”
