It’s dawned on me rather slowly that the most important episode of the Mad Men so far may well have been The Hobo Code from season one(I know some of you have picked this up in the comments over the past few weeks). In it, we saw the young Dick Whitman get made “an honorary” hobo – and since then he’s lived by the rules of the rails. Even when a gr...
The reason I’m pretty sure Don’s reckoning won’t be fatal is because Betty is about to die. We saw her heading to class at Fairfield – looking slightly out of time (“Are you lost?” asked a fellow student) before collapsing on the stairs. After being dropped off at the hospital (and being signed in as “Mrs Robinson” by the cheeky students) we quickl...
I think it was important that both Pete and Don’s closing routes involved the same place, namely Wichita. Look again at the Nels Anderson quote: Don’s spiritual journey to California, or wherever he’s going to end up, is one taken without possessions, without much cash, with just a Sears bag and his past. As Don is shedding his load, Pete is reform...
When Gene Hofstadt (Betty’s father) died in series three’s The Arrangements, the episode ended with Over There, the popular US soldiers’ song by George M Cohan. As his daughter faced up to her own death, it was heard again as Don sang it at the veterans’ party. The music when Don was pulled over in his dream was Merle Haggard’s Okie From Muskogee, ...
The Milk and Honey Route ran about 10 minutes longer than a usual episode. I presume next week’s finale will do the same. Line of the episode: Andy: “The chlorine’s killed the piss in the pool if you want to go for a swim.” Exchange of the episode: Henry: (Pointing to cancer diagnosis) “What do you think Nelson Rockefeller would say if he got this?...
Still, Sunday’s episode, “The Milk and Honey Route”—the second-to-last episode of Mad Men ever—felt like a particularly cruel coincidence. After a fall at school sends Betty to...

May 11, 2015 · The title of last night’s episode of Mad Men, “The Milk and Honey Route,” comes from a handbook for hobos written by Nels Anderson, who himself lived the hobo life in the 1920s before writing his sociological study of the behavior and function of homeless people.
May 11, 2015 · "The Milk and Honey Route" seems like a downright strange episode of Mad Men until you realize what it's about. It employs a triptych structure, telling three completely separate...
