      It's a social thing they want to see him as a drinking buddy it's more relaxed that's why he talks to them like that as if they just had a moment of his genius while they shared in his moment of glory from the award. I worked in high end ladies wear never drank on the job but same friendly attitude is what sells women would tell me their life stories half the time while I give them clothes I listen and give advice and opinions about their issues and clothes. It's not a boring meeting it's sales.

    I love how Don just keeps going even after Pete tries to cut him off, "Give me a minute!" What I also love is how the clients don't seem to mind at all that Don is drunk off his ass. He just drunkenly spits out whatever slogan comes to mind, and while everyone else is visibly uncomfortable, it doesn't even seem to register with the clients.

      I'm in advertising and I've done a version of this myself. Don might not have done so intentionally, sometimes a client can overthink a pitched concept. Reframe the context to give them a chance to respond to in on a more instantaneous level and they might just realise they like it after all.

So hiring Danny wasn’t a problem because they could afford him and they gave him some work to do that nobody else wanted to do. It was a surprise win win, Don being the lucky son of a bitch he is, made it happen when he would have at any other moment, failed. That’s was really hilarious. He went off script wildly but won the clients over so nobody cares at all that he did that. But he does that same last second audible with Hersey and blows it because the potential clients don’t like the message or that Don cried in the meeting.

    Missing the context of the earlier scene whereby we know Don has accidentally/drunkenly stolen the "Cure for the common breakfast" line from a pathetic hack who tried (and failed) to get a job at the agency. That's why Peggy looks so infuriated. She knows they can't actually use it regardless of how much the client loves it.

    WOW! The detail in this scene! Only The Sopranos and Breaking Bad can rival this. To look over what we see:
    1. Don is drunk and is COMPLETELY a caricature of his own self. Amazing how they wrote this and how Jon Hamm acted and pulled it off
    2. The detail with the jealousy of Peggy! She IMMEDIATELY snatches that award like it's hers, then to make matters worse, parades around the room with Don and Roger who are intoxicated and Peggy being sober. She feels like she deserves that award for her own self so badly she rejoices in every glimmering moment that she can - because (example of great writing) the audience has seen over the course of the show how Peggy prematurely asks for things, can be somewhat conniving when getting her way - and we see later on in the episode when Peggy and Don argue about the award that she almost feels like that award belongs to her. Amazing.
