"Pete and Don share a true love, though, in Peggy. Pete’s the creep, the one who seduced her and treated her cruelly, impregnated her, tried to get her back, the one who keeps her at arm’s length. Don’s the one who mentored her, supported her, was there for her when she was in the hospital; he confides in her. Except that’s not the only way to describe it. Pete’s the one who said, “I wish I’d picked you then. I love you.” The one who told Peggy that she’s “perfect.” Don’s the one who makes drunken demands, the one Peggy cleans vomit off of, the one who yells at her until it seems like she’s crying. Don only promoted Peggy in the first place to spite Pete. Peggy is the audience’s stand-in — the pilot is set on her first day of work, and we learn about these characters the way she does, and we trust her judgement. She’s a prism, refracting Don’s behavior so it looks more forgivable, refracting Pete’s so it seems more abhorrent."
