Mad Men: Collaborators

SYNOPSIS

At CGC, Peggy is feeling unliked by her underlings, as it is implied to her that she is too tough on them. Over at SCDP, two clients are causing minor problems. Herb Rennet at Jaguar wants Don and Pete to recommend a specific strategy to head office. Don doesn't agree with the strategy, but Pete believes they have to give him what he wants or risk losing them as clients. Can Don and Pete provide a united front at the Jaguar meeting? And Raymond Geiger at Heinz, head of their beans division, tells Don and Ken in confidence that he doesn't want them providing any business to their ketchup division, as he feels ketchup will steal all the glory away from beans that was built up at SCDP. This conundrum may cause more problems for SCDP than just figuring out if they should kowtow to Raymond, who gave them business when no one else was, or go after the more lucrative ketchup account. Meanwhile, the Drapers and the Rosens are becoming closer as two couples, as Don and Sylvia continue with their sexual liaison. This situation may become more difficult for Sylvia to deal with emotionally as Megan confides in her about a recent event. And Pete and Trudy are settling into suburban life, where flirting and open but implied sexual innuendo seems to be happening with many of their neighbors. This may cause some problems in Pete and Trudy's continual unspoken disagreement over how they live their lives.
