That was all before and all of that was true, but right then as he sat in NYC as the lonely dude who JUST got his job back and is now being fired. He was vulnerable, he was real, he was Dick Whitman, and he found out ain't no one want that dude. It was too late, you can't be all of the things you stated above and then come back in the 9th inning and try to be married for real, yet that's what he was doing. He went to her for support and in return got divorced. In that scene dude was trying, and it was too late.

Peggy's work life and ability have never been in question, she's learned literally from the school of Draper. She's been his protege since the early days and he finally just passed the baton off. Her work life will always straighten itself out. At home though, she has no one. The kid who we thought annoyed her was literally her best friend. That's who she hung out with and it was sad for her to sit there and cry because that kid was leaving. Then she told him she'd visit all the time, that lie was as much for her as it was for him. The kid knew her too well though, he knew she worked too hard to ever come visit him.

>why that fool so depressed?

He fell in love with Peggy, then fucked around and wrecked his home life, and in return found out Don was better than him and now works with that dude. Add it all up, and you're looking square in the face at full on depression. Hopefully him doing some work will get him back.

Yet when ole by showed up Sally did her hair and some make-up to sit outside as a life guard. She's the greatest. The way she can go between Flippant towards her parents but at least still see where Don is coming from is pretty great. I imagine that at some point in her later adulthood she'll have some begrudging relationship with her.
