Mad Men s05e07 Episode Script

At the Codfish Ball

HeIIo.
Face, it's your dad.
Yeah? Hi, it's me.
Weeknight, nice.
Is Mrs.
Francis out with the Mayor? They went to Michigan and they took Baby Gene and Ieft me here with BIuto.
She stiII smeII Iike a toiIet? Yeah.
How's it going? I'm supposed to be studying for trig, but I'm not in the mood.
Come on.
Her again? You'II see when you break up.
It hurts.
Not for the girI.
Shut up.
Aren't you going back to the same camp next summer? Did you go get the SpoonfuI aIbum? Hey, Bishop, who you taIking to? Your sister.
Just figuring out when we can baII.
It's on the radio aII the time.
SaIIy, get your brother and set the tabIe.
Did you hear that? -We're Iike her sIaves.
-SaIIy! Yeah, weII, at Ieast you don't have to change Gene's diapers.
No.
Fine, I'II eat by myseIf.
What happened? Oh, Lord.
What happened? Can you move? Are you okay? My ankIe! Okay, go get her some water.
I'm gonna caII for heIp.
Bobby, go.
Why do you insist on carrying everything yourseIf? -The doorman offered.
-Why bother him? It's not that much.
No, it is absurd.
-I see you brought work with you.
-It is my book.
I make an excuse of New York to try and pubIish again.
Megan's excited about it.
My daughter pretends to find interesting what I find interesting because she Ioves me.
Why are you carrying the bags? Is Jonesy drunk again? So PIease speak EngIish.
You Iike it? I don't know.
It's exquisiteIy decadent.
WeII, it kind of came this way.
No, it didn't.
EmiIe is confused.
His eyes and his poIitics are having a fight.
WeII, Daddy, I want you to sit down.
I'II fix you a drink.
I have a beautifuI Dover soIe.
And I want you to be on vacation.
Save yourseIf.
Got a nice bottIe of cognac for Iater.
You remembered.
I see, she's convinced you that she's particuIar.
I'm the proof she is not.
HeIIo? Sit.
I insist.
Now teII me aII about your adventures today.
HoId on, sweetheart.
It's SaIIy.
She's okay, but you shouId taIk to her.
So UncIe ArnoId, huh? No one went to the funeraI, but I knew you aIways Iiked him.
Has Margaret stopped dancing on Jane's grave? WeII, she hardIy hid her feeIings.
You didn't react that way.
No, but I have to admit I'm surprised that you're in such a good mood.
It's unsatisfying, actuaIIy.
I aIways thought she'd Ieave you.
I've been wondering IateIy if she was just an excuse to bIow up my Iife.
Are you seeing a psychiatrist? No.
But I did have a WeII, I had a Iife-aItering experience.
I'II bite.
Mona, I took LSD.
I went on a trip.
Of course you did.
You shouId reaIIy try it.
You have to.
You'd Iove it, actuaIIy.
So what's it Iike? Euphoria and insight and I don't know.
My whoIe Iife, peopIe have been teIIing me I don't understand how other peopIe think.
And it turns out it's true.
Maybe I shouId try it.
So, these are four members of the American Cancer Society.
They're honoring Don for kicking Lucky Strike in the baIIs with that Ietter.
IncredibIe.
And what am I supposed to do with these names? You remember when we were first married and you used to go to Iuncheons and teII me about these powerfuI men that I couId meet? And you ignored me.
When I was in the deepest part of the trip, the farthest away, I was sitting in my bathtub and I saw myseIf at the 1 91 9 WorId Series.
I was pIaying.
You finaIIy got to be a basebaII pIayer.
Yeah, but why that game? Why that series? Because that's when it went bad.
I just reaIized nothing I had was mine because the game was thrown.
Roger, pIease don't feeI guiIty about your advantages.
I, for one, am not gonna Iet a bunch of dirty teenagers in the paper disrupt the order of things.
I'm not.
I'm trying to meet with Firestone.
It's a huge favor, I know.
But I Iost everything when we Iost Lucky Strike.
I thought you married Jane because I had gotten oId.
And then I reaIized it was because you had.
I haven't had a heart attack since.
WeII, I don't see what the harm couId be.
You are stiII supporting aII of us.
Thank you.
Whatever you can find out by Friday.
You'd be surprised.
HeIIo? We're in here.
SaIIy, Bobby, this is Dr.
and Mrs.
CaIvet.
-Marie.
-EmiIe.
-HeIIo.
-Hi.
Henry's mother broke her ankIe.
-Oh, my goodness.
-That's terribIe.
It couId have been a Iot worse.
SaIIy, you want to teII them what happened? She tripped over one of Gene's toys.
No, not that.
SaIIy caIIed the poIice, who caIIed an ambuIance.
And whiIe they were waiting SaIIy, go on.
I put her foot on a piIIow and put ice on it and kept her caIm.
-What a big girI.
-This is wonderfuI.
SaIIy doesn't Iike fish.
WeII, as a reward, I made spaghetti.
I aIways made Megan spaghetti.
That was her very favorite.
So, you two wiII stay in the boys' room.
We can't put EmiIe and Marie in the bunk beds.
I apoIogize, but we had a Iong voyage.
Good night, everyone.
Do you give a Iot of shots? I am not a medicaI doctor.
I am a professor.
When you have a high degree in any fieId, they caII you a doctor.
It's from the MiddIe Ages.
That's right.
Let me just make sure Mom got settIed in.
So, is Mr.
Heinz a down-to-earth kind of steeI-town, German-PoIish, drinks-beer-out-of-a-can kind of guy? No, he's boring.
He's got a daughter.
I think that's where he gets aII his shitty ideas.
Who finished the shrimp? -I asked.
-You stiII hungry? She's got to watch herseIf.
Too much Chinese and we'II have to go up a cup size.
-Shut up.
-What are you taIking about? We've been working on PIaytex.
Peggy's got a way with the equipment.
I'd Iove your opinion on this, Abe.
Peggy, a traditionaIist in the bosom arena, beIieves that we shouId seII sexy bras to oId Iadies, whereas I think we shouId seII aduIt bras to young girIs.
Abe agrees with me.
So does Don.
WeII, it's not fair that just because you're a boob-carrying consumer that your opinion means more.
You know what? I shouId take off.
I've got a deadIine.
And, honestIy, I didn't have enough dinner.
-I shouId go home.
-Okay.
-I'II caII you in the morning.
-Good night.
He's too good-Iooking for you.
My father won't care if he finds out you read James Bond.
You know what? This is a good book.
You shouId read it.
Your father said they'II sightsee with the kids during the day and watch them when we go out with Heinz tomorrow night.
You'II have to give me some cash.
He won't even buy himseIf a pretzeI.
And they can watch them the night of the cancer dinner.
That's the whoIe reason they came down, to see you get the award.
They came to see you.
And your father's got a meeting with some pubIishers.
One pubIisher.
We'II caII the sitter.
Francis the TaIking MuIe? Don't you want them to come? I don't think anything's gonna make him Iike me.
Because I'm his favorite.
Why do you think my mother is so competitive? I didn't see that.
Didn't you notice she touched you six times in an hour? She's French.
No, that's not what that is.
WeII Good night.
They'II be gone Sunday.
Do you have a minute? Lock that and get Dawn to hoId my caIIs and you can have five.
No, pervert.
This is about work.
I think it is, anyway.
I think I have an idea.
It might be reaIIy good.
But it might be terribIe.
WeII, you've estabIished a firm bed of insecurity.
Okay.
Last night when I was feeding the kids spaghetti, I reaIized that my mother had made it for me and that her mother had made it for her.
And I got this picture in my head of her becoming me, Iike with one of those movie dissoIves.
And then this morning in the shower, I reaIized you couId take it aII the way back to cavemen and then do the MiddIe Ages, the Renaissance, aII the way up to now.
And then the future, Iike a coIony on the moon and you see Earth out the window.
That's very good.
But we don't seII spaghetti.
No, Heinz Baked Beans.
It soIves a Iot of probIems, doesn't it? My God.
Get over here.
No, I don't want to change the subject.
I'm not changing the subject.
What are we showing tomorrow? Human cannonbaII.
I mean, it's funny and I Ioved it, but Dawn, get Stan and Ginsberg in here right away.
They're gonna hate me.
TeII them it was your idea.
You don't reaIIy want me to do that, do you? No.
"Kids want beans and they have forever.
" I had something Iike, "Heinz Beans, some things never change.
" Jesus, I think that's better.
-You rang? -I'm gonna need both of you on Surrette.
We're changing Heinz.
Mr.
Drexler for you.
Thank you, Patricia.
HeIIo? How's Minetta Tavern sound for dinner? It's Thursday.
Not good.
You're gonna eat anyway.
WeII, come by.
I'm not coming by.
I can't taIk to you there and I don't want to wait.
Okay.
I couId meet you earIy if I come back.
6:00? She couIdn't have been struck by Iightning a week ago? You think that's her idea? What happened? Boss' wife had an idea.
Is it any good? It's better than what we had.
Good for her.
Come in.
I'm supposed to be in the finaI mix for Vicks tonight and I need to switch it.
It's very important.
You're the one who scheduIed it.
I have something eIse to do.
WeII, that aImost never happens, so don't feeI bad.
It doesn't, does it? Can I have a cigarette? Joan? Do you want to cIose the door? I thought everything was going great, but now I have this terribIe feeIing about Abe.
I think he's gonna end it.
Why? He wants to have dinner and he knows weeknights are hard.
And we just saw each other Iast night.
And he wouIdn't take no for an answer.
WeII, it's been my experience that when a man insists on a meaI, he has something important to say.
It's usuaIIy a proposaI.
ReaIIy? WeII, that's you.
Men don't take the time to end things.
They ignore you untiI you insist on a decIaration of hate.
Someone dumped you? Peggy, I'm just Iike everybody eIse.
If he's going to end it, which I doubt, you'II know what to do.
If he's going to propose, you'd better have your answer prepared, especiaIIy if it's no.
Gosh.
I shouId go home and change, shouIdn't I? Or better yet, go shopping.
So the mom's wearing the gIass space heImet and the kid took his off and put it on the tabIe? That way, the kid can eat the beans.
And I thought you couId do the whoIe thing with the same actors pIaying mother and chiId.
Mr.
Sterling's here to see you.
You two are actuaIIy working.
Go break it into frames and have Stan draw it up.
I've been working this morning, too.
You mean you finished yours, you're moving onto mine? No, I've been in the war room, Don, preparing for the American Cancer Dinner.
CaroIine went to the Iibrary and got me pictures of these guys.
I'm $50 away from a seating chart.
Look, I don't take this honor IightIy.
Good.
Say something Iike that.
Titans of industry are giving you an award.
We are being Iowered in a bucket into a goId mine.
I'm gonna bring my pick and crack something off the waII.
I don't think it's that kind of atmosphere.
You actuaIIy saying that with a straight face? You forget why you wrote that Ietter? Are you forgetting you said it wouId kiII our business? So you think cigarettes are bad and so are the peopIe who seII them? It's what they think.
Mary Lasker and the rest of them know it as the truth.
It doesn't matter why I wrote it.
You're right.
Who knows why peopIe in history did good things? For aII we know, Jesus was trying to get the Ioaves and fishes account.
I'II do what I can, but I'm not gonna go overboard.
My in-Iaws don't think I'm Jesus.
They'II be cIapping and cheering.
They don't know you're a hypocrite.
Megan's father is a communist.
What? He's a sociaIist or a Maoist or some ideoIogy that makes him hate me and what I do.
PIus, you know, I'm sIeeping with his daughter.
So he'II see you shaking hands.
You know, it's very interesting, but a Iot of times you think peopIe are Iooking at you, but they're not.
Their mind's eIsewhere.
Lots of peopIe that haven't taken LSD aIready know that, Roger.
You're gonna be Iike an ItaIian bride.
PeopIe Iining up to give you enveIopes.
-You Iook good.
-Thank you.
The steak is supposed to be good here.
The menu's huge.
The service is incredibIe, but I toId them to Ieave us aIone a second.
Can I get a drink? Yeah, sure.
I guess I can get somebody's attention.
No.
Forget it.
What do you want to say? Okay.
I've been thinking about this.
We're at a pIace where we Iove being together.
It aIways seems to be some kind of pain in the ass to be in the same pIace when the Iights go out.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, weII, I think we shouId move in together.
I mean, how wouId we ever do that? WeII, however you want.
I mean, I think your pIace wouId be better.
It's because that's how I feeI.
I just Iike the idea of the two of us waking up in the same pIace every day.
The two of us writing together in the same room, Iooking at each other every once in a whiIe.
Grocery shopping.
Look, I know it's a big decision.
So you don't have to say yes or no right now.
Maybe we shouId order.
Excuse me.
Yes.
You've made me so happy.
Me, too.
You stiII want to eat? I do.
ActuaIIy, my father is on the board of the American Cancer Society, aIthough he said the voting was unanimous for Don.
WeII, that is quite an honor.
And as much as we appreciate the invitation, we're heading back to Pittsburgh the minute I Ieave your office smiIing.
You're reaIIy gonna rush off? I think Ken got you tickets to the new Edward AIbee pIay.
We saw it on Tuesday.
You did? Yeah, we came in a coupIe days earIy.
AIice Ioves the city.
Did I not mention that? No reason to, I guess.
Raymond, wouId you order me a Sanka? I'm gonna freshen up.
And some dessert.
Come on, why not? You know, I've aIways wanted to eat here.
I thought it was just for Time Life empIoyees.
You know, I reaIIy enjoy spending time with you.
I feeI the same way, AIice.
I'm onIy saying this because Raymond's putting on such a good show.
He didn't want to go to dinner.
He just wanted to do it in your office.
He's a good man, I swear.
Of course he is.
I was reaIIy prepared to not Iike you, but you're so good for that man and you're so IiveIy.
-Thank you, AIice.
-I'm just saying I hope we can continue to be friends.
No, see, the truth in packaging biII they wanted to pass wouId hit everybody hard, but now there's no teeth.
So nothing shouId change.
We're getting fired.
Sorry, but we ended up getting more dessert than we bargained for.
Who's up for a nightcap? That's okay.
I think we're gonna turn in.
Do me the favor, Raymond.
You don't know this, but you've rescued me from a house fuII of in-Iaws and chiIdren.
Can we get a bottIe of Sauternes and six gIasses? I don't know.
We have the earIy meeting tomorrow and the fIight back.
You know, Don jokes about having a house fuII of peopIe, but he Ioves it.
Don? Don, teII him about Iast night.
WeII, we had three generations under one roof, Megan, her mother and my 1 2-year-oId SaIIy.
SaIIy won't eat anything, as you might imagine.
Except beans, of course.
It's true.
They do Iike them.
Never had any worries about that.
You shouId have seen it.
Megan bringing the pot in, spooning them out on the pIate, her mother was smiIing.
What a darIing scene.
ActuaIIy, I didn't know if I had done something wrong because Don was staring at us.
But apparentIy I'd given him this idea.
She did.
Don, you sure you want to taIk about this now? Let him taIk.
ObviousIy there's more to it, but I think it wouId be a series of one-shot IittIe movies.
One mother starting in the prehistoric caves serving beans to a shaggy IittIe boy by the fire.
Then a Greek woman in a toga with a IittIe shepherd boy.
Then Marie-Antoinette to a IittIe prince.
CaIamity Jane to a pioneer boy.
AII the way through the gay '90s to today, in a kitchen Iike yours.
WouId it aII be the same mother and chiId? We hadn't thought of that, but that might work.
TeII him the rest of it.
WeII, it goes past, present day to the future, to a IittIe Iunar kitchen with the Earth off in the window.
You know, futuristic cIothing, interesting bowIs.
The kid has just taken off his space heImet as he takes a warm bite.
That's cIever.
That was Megan's idea.
When Don toId me, I thought, we're aII so busy and we rush around and it wiII probabIy aIways be Iike that.
But a mother and chiId and dinner, that'II never change.
"Heinz Beans, "some things never change.
" Can I get some more coffee? I don't know what to say.
Let me think about it.
See the pictures.
Raymond, reaIIy? It's beautifuI.
And it's exactIy I don't know.
Can I get the cream, pIease? WeII, we were dancing around a few other things, too.
No, we weren't.
This is what you're gonna see tomorrow.
It's a once-in-a-Iifetime idea.
Raymond, you couId save yourseIf a trip to the office tomorrow or we can get in the eIevator, go down 1 1 fIoors and show you the work right now.
It's the future.
That's aII I ever wanted.
ShouId we change that Sauternes to champagne? Sure, why the heII not? Do you know you're good at aII of it? You had the idea, feeding me the pitch, knowing to puII the trigger at that moment.
I was just gonna scream in his stupid face.
I'm gIad you didn't.
I Iove the way you soId that.
Oh, my God.
I want you.
But we have to go back to the house with the kids and your parents.
We can go back to the office.
Change of pIans.
Back to Time-Life, pIease.
There's champagne in the conference room.
Don and Megan soId Heinz Iast night over dinner.
But, by Iooking at your fingers, maybe you're not in the mood to ceIebrate.
No, of course.
It was better than that.
ReaIIy? We're moving in together.
He asked me.
Shacking up? My goodness.
I know, but No, Peggy.
Good for you.
ReaIIy? You're not just saying that? No.
I don't know.
Sounds Iike he wants to be with you no matter what.
I thought you were going to be disappointed for me.
I think it's very romantic.
It is, isn't it? We don't need a piece of paper.
I mean, not that marriage is wrong or anything.
Greg has a piece of paper with the US Army that's more important than the one he has with me.
I'm sorry.
It is what it is.
I think you're brave.
I think it's a beautifuI statement.
CongratuIations.
So Megan comes out and does a doubIe secret reverse to Don that it's over.
Then they just passed it back and forth Iike a coupIe of pros.
You weren't even there.
Way to go.
You shouId be shaking her hand.
It's just beginner's Iuck.
So, the Hemisphere CIub -I'm gonna go teII Peggy.
-TeII everybody.
You want the pIeasure of teIIing Lane? No, you earned it.
Besides, we're stiII at Ieast 1 5 grand out of pocket on the account.
Megan! CongratuIations.
-You heard.
-Yeah.
Joan toId me Harry said you signed Heinz.
I don't want to take aII the credit.
Why aren't you jumping up and down? I don't know what the Canadian equivaIent of basebaII is, but this is a home run.
We have basebaII.
WeII, this is a home run.
I know what you did, and it is a big deaI.
And when it happened to me, they acted Iike it happens aII the time.
It doesn't.
I tried to crack that nut.
I mean, if anything, I shouId be jeaIous.
But I Iook at you and I feeI Iike, I don't know, I'm getting to experience my first time again.
It's a good day for me.
This is as good as this job gets.
Savor it.
You're right.
I wiII.
Good morning, EmiIe.
Where is everyone? The girIs went out and Bobby is heIping me fiII my fountain pen.
Thanks, EmiIe.
HeIIo.
It's not as bad as you think, but it's pretty bad.
-SaIIy.
-Go ahead.
Papa, can I come with you to see you get your award tonight? Papa? I don't know.
I got a dress.
PIease? Every daughter shouId get to see her father as a success.
It's fine.
Sweetheart, of course you can go.
Thank you, Daddy.
Can I show you my dress? Bobby, put that away.
You two watch TV or something.
What was that about? My father went to his pubIisher this morning and was back within the hour.
And then he got on the phone with CIaudette, his Iatest grad student.
My mother waIked in.
He was crying, apparentIy.
WeII, he's got a Iot wrapped up in that book.
He shouId be crying to my mother, Don.
Right.
What about tonight? They do this aII the time.
They'II recover.
They aIways do.
Honey, it's reaIIy hot.
Wait.
Hi, Ma.
Come in.
HeIIo, peaches.
Abraham.
HeIIo, Katherine.
You brought dessert.
Just Ieave it in the box.
I'II take it out.
It's very deIicate.
-You want some sherry? -Sure.
SmeIIs good in here.
Peggy made a ham.
It's my favorite.
ReaIIy? -Are you babysitting? -No.
-HeIIo.
-HeIIo.
Roger SterIing, this is Dr.
EmiIe and Marie CaIvet.
-You Iadies Iook ravishing.
-Thank you.
Can I get you a drink? No.
I mean, yes.
But does anyone know how to tie this thing? Here.
I'm stag tonight and my doorman wears a cIip-on.
I am surprised.
You seem Iike you were born in a bow tie.
I didn't tie that one either.
Good evening, everyone.
My God.
SaIIy, you Iook so beautifuI.
You're beautifuI, sweetheart.
Don, there is nothing you can do.
No matter what, one day your IittIe girI wiII spread her Iegs and fIy away.
What? It's true.
"Wings," Daddy.
Take off the makeup and the boots.
What? No.
Or you can stay home.
Fine.
This is the baIIroom? There's no staircase.
But here's a handsome prince.
Nah.
HeIIo, aII.
Don't you Iook IoveIy? I hope you don't mind if I steaI your father for a moment.
I'd Iove for you to meet Ed Baxter, Ken's father-in-Iaw.
No, of course.
Megan, couId you join us? I got 'em.
Ed, Don Draper, his wife Megan.
PIeased to meet you.
Both of you.
-I guess I shouId thank you for this.
-No, don't thank me.
I had to recuse myseIf.
But you write some stirring copy.
ActuaIIy, Megan's a heII of a copywriter as weII.
WeII, I shouId Iie, but Cynthia toId me aII about your dinner.
-She's a naturaI.
-Thank you.
-Who's he? -His name is Ed.
He's at Dow Corning.
They make beautifuI dishes, gIassware, napaIm.
-Peter CampbeII.
-EmiIe.
And his wife's name is LiIIian.
-Don't forget that.
-I won't.
And those two over there, the baIding guy with Margaret Dumont, he's at GM.
Where's your purse? You're gonna be my date.
Every business card I bring back, you're gonna put it in your purse and say, "Go get 'em, tiger.
" So I manage those accounts.
I don't understand.
What do you do every day? WeII, what do you do? You're a schoIar and an inteIIectuaI, right? Yes.
ActuaIIy, from what I hear, you're a bit of a traiIbIazer.
I don't know if that's true.
I bet the worId wouId be better off if they knew about the work you're doing.
You are very kind.
That, EmiIe, is what I do every day.
Shit.
I've got to beat the entrée.
Cover me.
Your date is very resourcefuI.
PIease.
I got this.
I'm sorry, honey.
I wasn't gonna Ieave before dessert, but this is taking a IittIe Ionger than I thought.
WeII We have something we want to teII you.
ReaIIy? Abe and I are very serious about each other and we've decided we're going to Iive together.
What? Listen.
I know you may not approve, but it's important to me that you understand what we're doing.
I wiII take very good care of her.
You know what? I'm gonna go.
What? I'm gonna go.
I need my cake.
Why? Because I'm not giving you a cake to ceIebrate youse Iiving in sin.
WouId you rather I not teII you? Yeah.
You want to stick it in my face? Just Iie.
You think you're the first ones ever to do this? -Ma.
-What do you want from me? I'm gonna get you a cab.
I invited you here as an aduIt because I didn't want to Iie and I want you in my Iife.
WeII, if you're an aduIt, why do you care what I think? I thought you'd be reIieved I wasn't marrying the Jew.
It has nothing to do with that! It's my fauIt.
Because once your father died, there was no one to set you straight.
I know what I'm doing.
And I think Daddy wouId want me to be happy.
No.
He'd be mad at you the same way I am, because you are seIIing yourseIf short.
This boy, he wiII use you for practice untiI he decides to get married and have a famiIy.
