Mad Men: The Quality of Mercy

ÖZET

Another incident with company executives is the last straw for Ken in working on the Chevy account, most specifically in Detroit. While Ken will still retain account responsibilities in the office, the on the ground account responsibilities are given to Pete, who is buoyed by working on SC&P's most prestigious account. What Pete is not happy about is that Bob will still be working on the account, since Bob made a pass at him. As such, Pete calls Duck to tell him that he no longer wants to leave SC&P but that he wants Duck to find Bob another prestigious job lead but not necessarily find Bob that next job. After hearing back from Duck, Pete decides on a slightly different tact in dealing with Bob. Harry, still in California, gets news that Sunkist has reviewed their pitch and wants to get into TV, which would make their account much more lucrative than Ocean Spray. Despite the extra money, this move does not sit well with Ted, the creative lead for Ocean Spray. The work on Ocean Spray and St. Joseph's lead to almost everyone at SC&P realizing that there is a thing between Ted and Peggy, who both believe they are hiding their feelings for each other well. Their blinded devotion to each other causes problems most specifically on the St. Joseph's account, which each defends until called out on it. And Sally, still not speaking to her father after seeing him having sex with Sylvia Rosen, has decided to deal with the issue by asking her parents if she can go away to boarding school. Although Betty would truly like to know why Sally has made this decision, both Betty and Don support the idea, the latter who really does see it as a means to sweep his and Sally's issue under the rug for good. But Sally's interview and overnight stay at the boarding school may put Sally in a situation way over her head.
