There's always this querky "awkward" character humor on atleast 1 or 2 episodes a season where you just scratch youre stunned head at how bizarre & funny the situations are and your like "How do we get here?" and followed by "That was epic ploting" - Like Guy & the Lawnmower (season 3) or The last day for Mrs. Blankenship or Don & Lane get drunk on New Years Day and go see "Godzilla". Tonight was "That Night" - Campbell vrs Pryce....and Like Roger, I bet on Lane.
Well so far the season is def different from the other 4.
There's something rather abstract about the scenes and they way the characters are presented this season. There are interesting scene changes like the scene from having one character walk out of one office to another character walking into another office. There is no coherent story arc, everything is fragmented.
I conclude this is all done on purpose. -That the characters have reached an existential peak and have become lost and counter productive. Last night's episode continued the atmospheric sub-conscience awareness that has been flowing through the episodes like The Twilight Zone, continuously hinting at regret and death.
Crossgrove's part is the most intriguing, as not only did it enforce the strange sci-fi and fantasy aspect to the season, but also that he creates his ideas from real life experiences....I think there is a great deal of foreshadowing here, especially on Don's part, who really doesn't look well...
I don't know if the season will end with Don jumping out the company window, but it sure feels like it could. Everything seems to be about the ramification of choices, and Don has draped his feelings and his identity one to many times...
I probably enjoyed the Lane/Campbell showdown more than I should have haha.. and Joan was right - I'm pretty sure everyone was just jealous they didn't get to him first.
