Mad Men,"The Suitcase" (s4e7) - Simon and Garfunkel's "Bleecker Street."
Fog's rollin' in off the East River bank
Like a shroud it covers Bleecker Street
Fills the alleys where men sleep
Hides the shepherd from the sheep.

...maybe one of the best scenes in TV history
This fucking show
Brilliant series. In every way…
This is my most favorite episode of the series.
My favorite scene, Good job Joana on recognizing and uploading
This song fits perfectly listening to early in the morning but it’s sunny out, like 7:30am on a summer day, the bus is full of half asleep commuters and the sun is shining brightly
Don holding Peggy's hand should've been the last scene of the entire series. Nothing tops this moment. Don and Peggy's friendship, is in some way the most romantic relationship in the show. He is incapable of saying I Love You. This is how he 'says' it. Peggy is the most important person in Don's life, because she chooses him, just for him. Not because he's her family, or her boss, or good looking. She sees Don for what he is, a searcher, who reminds her of herself. Beyond the facade, and is the only person besides Anna who loves him, regardless of everything else.
Perfect analysis
Do you remember when in the very first episode Peggy put her hand on Don's hand after he apologized for Pete's frat boy manners? 🥺
I couldn't watch this show. The lies the lies.
This was and still is the best episode of television i have ever seen in my life
This fucking show
Hi, I loved your review for the series. I also agree that the suitcase is a very engaging episode. Thanks😘
It just occurred to me that the hand touch was the “thank you” that Peggy was asking for in their argument earlier in the episode.
Thank you for this Joana! Here’s a little something for you: ua-cam.com/video/TQUTGgZbnMg/v-deo.html
AMC really struck gold having both Mad Men and Breaking Bad run concurrently. How many other networks can boast of the two greatest shows of all time at the same time?
hbo with sopranos and the wire
This has to be one of the best episodes in Television history, bar none.
I don't think it's accidental that this - the best, most powerful episode of the show - occurs exactly at the midpoint of the series. Seven seasons, season 4 ep 7 is 3 1/2 seasons in.
The episode was edited by Tom Wilson, which is coincidentally the name of the producer of the album Wednesday Morning 3AM, which included the song Bleeker Street.
Jesus! This show is incredible.
I just finished this show, had never seen it. What a great show.
Hands down, best episode of the series.
The beauty of Mad Men lies within Peggy. In a vacuum, she challenged Don's perception of women and handedly won. Don's personal relationship with women was always a $hit show, as evidenced with his marital affairs (Betty and Megan) and extra-marital affairs (too many to count). Peggy's existence and talents blindsided him from the professional front and she convincingly taught him that women could be worthy of the respect that he only previously thought could only be earned by other men.
« Why are you shitting on this ? » 😂😂 he just gave her the worst night ever
She asks him how to put it on tv... They fought the night before about the fact that Don changed peggy’s commercial to put it on tv...
I’m still not sure I understand this scene ;/
This scene is the counterpoint to the first episode of the series. Peggy tries physical contact to make things closer between them, but Don delimits it too hard. Throughout the series Peggy grew up to be as amazing a professional as Don, besides that in this episode, she sees a fragile side that she had never seen in him. So he seeks contact with her, but in a totally fraternal way. In the end, he asks to leave the door open (he always asks to close), a visual metaphor where he is always "open" to Peggy.
Episódio lindo vai se fuder
lol Don to Peggy - 'why are you shitting on this?'
Its a wonder how Peggy and Don didnt end up becoming lovers. They had tremendous respect for one another that transcended so much of what we see as trifles. But maybe that is exactly the reason why they kept their relations at just that.
She understands that what he offers is a mirage and he understands that she can't be controlled. They also aren't eachothers' type and he's 15 years too old for her.
best music cue in all of television
Open or Closed? Open
Episode starts with Peggy presenting her ideas to don and asking for his approval. Episode ends with Don presenting his ideas to Peggy and asking for her approval.
Probably second only to the "Both Sides Now" scene as being the most powerful and emotional of the entire series.
Best episode of mad men ever
Fantastic episode
I think Anna and Peggy were the only women he truly loved, and the only ones he more or less treated right. He’d never have gotten involved with them romantically, because he loved them. Yes it’s fucked up, but so was Don
Good thought.
@@susannahhoffs860 Hazy Shade of Winter and all that? I was 16 when that song came out, one of my favorites from that year. Thanks.
@@tranurse No, it’s just a moniker. She doesn’t have an h at the end of her name. Sorry! 😀
Episodio culmen de toda la serie
"Spruced up." Great old-timey expression.
"I saw a shadow touch a shadow's hand"
The song was a great sendoff for this scene. Just added more emotion into it.
There's so much said in the look they share, without speaking any words, and then the song is so pleasant.
I thought this song was when he was getting his magic taxi ride with that chick
I would like to ask any of you if you knew what happened to Peggy's baby - it wasn't mentioned after one scene when the sister asked her to say good night or good bye to the baby? The baby was at the crib. So who's taking care of the baby the sister with her own children? What was the last status of this particular part?
The baby was adopted by a family, but Peggy does not know the family. Peggy tells Stan this in season 7.
Angela Carleton that Baby was her sister’s son... She never Knez the Baby, she gave it to a Family as soon as she gave birth
I just rewatched this episode and it is brilliant. It made me curious so I Googled it and discovered some consider it to be the best episode of the Mad Men series. It's so well written and the acting by Jon Hamm and Elizabeth Moss is superb. The characters go take you on a roller coaster ride of emotions. When Don wakes up and sees Anna's ghost-like image smiling and holding a suitcase, he knew immediately that it was the very moment she passed away and that he would no longer have her sincere friendship. Then, he breaks down in front of Peggy. It was both moving and sad.
Fuck, I just got chills.
200!!!
That moment when Peggy opens the door then the song kicks in, it's like the whole amount of depression finally relieved. Such a great way to end an fantastic episode.
open or closed? open. a visual metaphor for don's acceptance of peggy and how much he cares for her.
I think its more of a general openess, to let down some walls. Its more in general than just Peggy.
I can see there being some symbolism to interpret here. But the strongest impression I get from that moment is just how incredibly good Don is at hiding his emotions and playing his role. Even after everything that happened to him that night and morning, after that flood of emotion and grief, he's so talented at playing this persona that he doesn't even need to use his door as protection. I think about all the times I'm struggling and how I would choose to shut that door and just try to get through the day. But Don cleans up in private, goes about his work, and leaves that door open. It shows just how good he is at hiding his pain. You can't help get feel sorry for how hard he is hiding who he truly is.
Instead of "Open or close", it was "Open or closed". Interesting...
Cena tão linda e tão importante. Don simplesmente mostra que ele é muito dependente da Peggy, não é a toa que ele sofre muito com a partida dela.
sopa de macaco
The greatest episode of one of the greatest tv series.
Thanks for the Bleeker Street link. Just heard this song for the first time the other day. Love it.
