Does anyone think maybe Diana never existed? So he starts off seeing her and thinks he knows her from somewhere, which I thought just meant she was his type, but he can't stop trying to place her. She's done EXACTLY what he would do. She's "Don Drapered" her life and doesn't want a huge thing with him. Then she isn't in her apartment, and the gay dudes living them are like, "Oh yeah, someone lived here and the landlord said to sell her furniture." They don't even know who she was.
I think he fantasized her. And I typically wouldn't go for that storyline, but Mad Men has done it before with the pool death in CA when everyone is on drugs, and then with the time he violently murdered the woman in his apartment.
Or maybe I'm crazy.
Oh, another thing about Diana. It sounded like most of the reviews made it seem like she was a female version of Dick Whitman/Don Draper. I think she's more like his bio mom.
I don't care who Diana is. Go away random person showing up in the last season that I don't care about.
YAS.
At this point I just want Peggy and Stan to have a good romp. That will make me happy. Maybe some couch sex at their place of employment, and get high afterwards. Don can just go to Cali and surf. Fin.
yes!! I was 4 in 1970. I can picture my late Mom in *her* hideous housecoat (hers was green patterned) and curlers (hers were smaller as she had shorter hair) And now I know why Mad Men makes me sad and is sometimes, inexplicably hard for me to watch. It is peering into the world I lived in when I was a little kid.
But the waitress has kids and Ted said his new lady friend does not?
Doesn't' mean she told him. Seemed like she's running away from something so it would make sense if she just decides not to say anything.
Ted's lady is also a college lady. Diana doesn't strike me a a college lady who would have attended college in the 50s/60s. She also just doesn't seem like Ted's type.

Agree with all that. Just didn't think her having kids was the proof that it's not her.

Interesting. My mom didn't look like that in the early '70s, but my grandma most certainly did. She probably still has those housedresses.
I was her last baby at 41 so she would have been 46 - more a grandma than a Mom then (she had 2 grandkids by the time I was 4)
