Peggy's pouring herself a drink in her darkened office as she makes a phone call, and Stan's voice replies, "Jimmy's Condom Warehouse, where the rubber meets the road. Jimmy speaking." Hee. Peggy laughs, but soon she's confessing to Stan, who's toking up, that everyone hates her at CGC. Stan: "Well, that was bound to happen." Hee. Peggy doesn't flinch at that one, and then Stan gossips about "Raymond J. Beans"'s visit and all the drama with "Ketchup" (that's how he refers to Tim, heh), adding a part we didn't know, which is that Ken apparently spent two weeks crowing about Timmy coming in. Peggy giggles, but covers and gets off the phone when she sees Chaough appear in her doorway. Chaough affably tells her she's allowed to make personal calls after five, particularly ones that make her laugh, but when she reveals that her former co-worker was telling her a funny story about an old client, she fails to see the cartoon dollar signs that appear in Chaough's eyes as he asks what happened. After Peggy gives him the nutshell version, you can see the possibilities swimming in his mind, but he doesn't linger, merely leaving with a comment about how nice it is to hear things have gone badly after you've left. Oh, Peggy. I wouldn't begrudge it in the literal sense, but if you end up metaphorically screwing Stan I may never forgive you.
When Don arrives home, apologizing for being late, he finds Megan in a robe. She tells him she's not feeling well, and she didn't cancel because she thought she'd be better, so he should go without her. I'm guessing she doesn't want to face Sylvia with her knowing Megan's secret, especially after her confession resulted in judgment, but not knowing anything about that, Don reluctantly agrees, with the stipulation that she go straight to bed. Don, some weird things have been turning you on, but promise not to fuck Sylvia on the restaurant table?
Pete's on the couch watching TV when there comes from outside some frantic pounding and screaming. He and Trudy open the door to find Wife Number One, obviously having been beaten badly about the face. From nearby, Husband Number One's voice calls to "Campbell" that she's his problem now, which is lovely on many levels, but does at least call Pete out in front of his wife. And given that she's probably within earshot, I'm guessing Wife Number Two is pretty happy it isn't her. As Trudy goes to moisten a cloth for Wife Number One's bleeding nose, Pete first offers to call the cops and then to take Wife Number One to the hospital, but she declines both offers, and then Trudy shoos him off to get some cotton wool. He doesn't look too thrilled about leaving them alone, but the cat's already out of the bag, wouldn't you say?
