Don paid off the elevator guy to get him to tell Roger it was broken, so they'd have to take the stairs, which made Roger puke oysters and vermouth in the office in front of a client to get back at Roger for hitting on Betty when he came over for dinner.
I legit couldn't even fathom going back to the office after putting myself through this - making it home and passing out on the kitchen floor would've been an accomplishment.
I find it so interesting the way Roger speaks. Almost like like an emperor addressing his people. Very declarative. Perhaps it comes from his aristocratic background.
Never been a fan of oysters but after watching this, man would I love some now. This scene has that Quentin Tarantino effect, not as good but still there.
One of my favorite Mad Men scenes. Perfectly depicts the time period and Don & Roger's relationship. Friendly (at the time) but competitive. The episode is about the corporate & personal pecking order. Copper belittles Roger, Roger comes down on the younger men & puts Don down repeatedly although subtly during dinner at the Drapers & then hits on his wife. Don gets revenge by outsmarting Roger.
Everytime I go to the bar, I hit the bartender with Roger's line "Don't let me see the bottom of this glass" and one time, i guess I got a Mad Men fan and he said "You got it Roger, sorry no oysters though"
I love this scene because here Don does something that he almost never does: he lets someone else lead the dance. Roger loves it, and falls right into Don’s trap.
God, I’m gonna miss having mad men on Netflix.

"Drinking milk. Never liked it. I hate cows" don't know why I love that line

THAT'S what I call a business lunch...

“We’re naming them now” is a seriously rare and underrated Don Draper joke

"Oh yeah, I forgot. I hate you."
This scene really makes me want to drink martinis and eat a bunch of oysters.
I wish I could just take a long ass lunch break where I get drunk and eat seafood. Lucky, rich, fictional, 1960's, bastards.

"One more?"
"..it's like eating a mermaid" that line from Don cracks me up every time. that double entrande is perfect.
"I believe that was... Jonathan Swift"
“Did he wake up one morning and say ‘Oh yeah I forgot, I hate you.’”
"I believe... We branded them cat lovers and moved on to the subject of true love."
