Not sure where EasyEdit is located, but for this section, one of the scenes I found revealing was when the Draper kids are playing in the house. The daughter has a plastic dry cleaning bag over her head and when Betty asks her to, "come here." you think she is going to warn her about possible suffocation, she is more concerned with whether or not her dry cleaning is ruffled. Apparently those warnings came out much later.
Do you find this valuable?
