Last week's episode saw Don struggling with the reality that his daughter Sally saw him cheating on his wife, Megan. Sally deals with this shocking turn of events by telling her mother, Betty, that she wants to go to boarding school. When Don hears of this from Betty, he offers to pay for her tuition in full.
While Sally hasn't told Betty or Megan about Don's affair, that's not to say she won't. After all, "Mad Men" Season 6 Episode 13 is the season finale of the show, which means there is plenty of drama to come. The AMC summary preview for "Mad Men" Season 6 Episode 13 teases, "Don has a problem," suggesting that maybe someone finds out what Sally saw (Betty, perhaps?) and potentially blows up his spot.
The preview (see below) shows a body floating in a pool, suggesting there may be a death or at the very least, a near-death drowning. The body is a woman, which raises the question as to who will be the victim of the show.
Many signs point towards Megan, since her marriage with Don is falling apart and there have been many references made to the Manson murders. For example, Megan was wearing a shirt very similar to that worn by Sharon Tate and many references to "Rosemary's Baby."
"I don't want to spoil anything for people, but after Lane..." said "Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner at a Los Angeles Times roundtable last week. "It's just not part of the show. No one's going to die."
But Weiner also hints that Don will change and that something terrible will happen to him, according to an interview before season 6 happened. Is this terrible incident Sally walking in on him? Or will Don go to drastic measures and commit murder?
"We also realized we had a really good story for Don that may change him irrevocably, but that might be part of the story also.... The season is about Don, and I made a commitment to tell a full story, no matter what the consequences are," Weiner stated in an interview when Season 6 began airing.
"Let's get to the destruction. Let's get to the loss. Let's ... express the idea that people want to change, and change is afoot," Weiner revealed in another interview. "Because as far as I can tell, 1968 is a year about change, about revolution, about violence, about people turning inwards as community breaks down.
"So I really kind of wanted to get that into the personal story of Don, which is, 'I don't like the way I am.' Where will that go?" he added.
