His brother, Lane and her.

I honestly don't understand why they gave her SO much screen time this season. Absolutely befuddling.

I thought she would be gone by now.

Funny how she wouldn't sell whipped topping but now she'll sell shoes.

and he takes the door that they left open at the end. I don't know if it was just me, but I think this whole season (largely in part to 'the Megan show') could have been condensed into about 5 episodes. It ended with a thud. JMHO.

But, I do have to say, for a season finale, it was one of the oddest ones I think I have ever seen! And really? Roger's butt?! NO! DON'S!!

Whether you like her acting or not, the character brings a lot to the series. There's the dynamic of the age and cultural differences between her and Don. Both her mother and father add considerable depth to the show. There's also the interaction between her and Betty, especially over Sally.

I stopped watching Madmen when it was obvious Megan was going to be such a big part of the show. She is such a poor actress that she brings down the entire show. It's too bad because I was glued to the TV when Mad Men was on BEFORE she joined the cast.
