  3. rubbersoul4163 answered: Pete/Peggy during the Cuban Missile Crisis
  4. sodiumlitskies answered: The Joan / Jaguar salespitch
  5. mundanehuman answered: With out a doubt when Peggy told Pete about the baby that she gave up for adoption and that it was his.
  6. loopypool answered: kodak carousel
  7. rhrsoulmates answered: Pete/Peggy’s end of S2 convo, the whole new start-up/end of S3, the lawnmower incident - pure brilliance!, Pete’s hunting fantasy, Kodak
  8. systemofastu answered: Roger Sterling’s first LSD trip, the opening scene of the pilot, and I’m sure that there are way more than I could put in this box
  9. fuck-you-im-a-mermaid answered: peggy and pete having sex in his office
  10. bloggertokntu answered: Don vs. the beatniks in s01e08, Don’s Jaguar speech in The Other Woman and every Don/Joan scene
  11. wehavebigdreams answered: Season 4 Episode “The Suitcase.” It is so well acted by Elisabeth Moss and Jon Hamm and the scenes between them are beautiful.
  12. wasarahbi answered: The Carousel, and the moment when you realize what Joan has done to get Jaguar.
  13. swedishsphinx answered: The Carousel sales pitch from Season 1 and Season 4’s The Suticase. An absolutely stunning and groundbreaking piece of television!
  14. curtisedwingreen answered: Don and Peggy moments, especially her resignation in 5. But also Ken when he is describing the Rothko in 2, “you could fall right in” Chills.
  15. rishonan answered: I would have to say the scenes where Don and Betty have dinner with the owners of Utz snacks along with Jimmy and Bobbi Barrett.
  16. klgepp answered: Either 2nd or 3rd. I think I’d have to go with the 3rd in the end because of how it finished off. “Shut the Door, Have A Seat” is perfect.
  17. bloggyspaceprincess answered: The scene where Betty confronts Don about his past and real name.
  18. brucewaynehasmoved answered: 4.
  19. thisistypical answered: the end of Season 3
  20. jtrumblr answered: Peggy to Pete (season 2 episode 13): “I had your baby and I gave it away.”
  21. mehdismind answered: When the Partners decided to create their own company in a weekend and made Mr Price fire them
  22. leheureverte answered: 2nd to last episode of the 5th season, Lane’s suicide, and all of his character development, is, to me, the pinnacle of Mad Men brilliance.
  23. nightlyallaround answered: i loved the betty-glen scene at the end of season 1, it was so genuine. And obviously all the peggy-don dynamic, especially “the suitcase” ep
  24. screwtheprotagonist answered: Don taking hold of Peggy’s hand at the very end of “The Suitcase”
  25. mas1v0ne answered: ALL 5 but the 1st and the 5th
  26. moonlityork answered: Don’s Kodak carousel pitch, and Don and Peggy’s scene at the bar in the Briefcase episode.
