I wish the chefs would cool it with the ceviche. This is Top Chef, not Top Ceviche!

Not to be all “remember the time when…” but I’m going to be anyway. In the first season, when the Sterling Cooper guys are working for the Nixon campaign, Pete is the only one who believes that Kennedy poses a threat, says he’s like Elvis, or some such. They all dismiss Pete, because, well, it’s Pete, but of course he ended up being right. That’s what I thought of during his Admiral pitch. He specifically said he wanted “integrated” ads. Somehow weaselly Pete is the most forward-thinking guy at S-C. I guess. I mean, Pete? Peggy is, as well, going back last year with the Jackie/Marilyn ad and this year to predicting the Bye Bye Birdie/Patio debacle.

In other news, poor Betty is a post-partum case if I ever saw one. Childbirth in the ’60s: Dope ‘em up, rip it out. Yikes.
