Episode Report Card Couch Baron: B | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Hitting The Fan
By Couch Baron | Season 4 | Episode 11 | Aired on 10.03.2010
Don arrives home to find Faye about to slip something under his door, and after he neutrally notes that he didn't expect to see her, she explains that she was going to call, but didn't want to "do this" over the phone. Thinking she's talking about breaking up, he somewhat pissily replies, "So you were gonna write it on an envelope," but she declines to, um, address that, instead asking if she can come in. He wordlessly agrees, and then braces himself for the talk, but she shocks him by instead saying she got him a meeting with Heinz. "They're at Ketchum MacLeod and they're restless." He can only bring himself to say her name, so she goes on that she thought about what he said and what he means to her. Only now feeling the guilt over what happened with Megan, he tells her she didn't have to do this, as if backpedaling now wouldn't be completely disingenuous even without the cheating component, but she tells him she wanted to. Damn, I did not want to see her get hurt, although it's possible she never has to know. He asks if she'd like to stay, and the answer is an eager yes, and when he tells her how tired he is, she leads him to the couch and asks him just to sit with her. She leans her head on his chest, and they silently share their compromised feelings as Jim Reeves's "Welcome To My World" most fittingly kicks us to credits. Two more to go!
