Minute By Minute Recap of The Rejected
Aug 18 2010, 7:22 PM EDT | Post edited: Aug 18 2010, 7:28 PM EDT
“The Rejected,” also known as Pete Spawns, Experimental Peggy, and Don’s Dirty Laundry is Hanging Him. FYI this episode was directed by Roger!!!!
10:01: Roger’s Back! Don’s chain-smoking.
10:02: Don: “Why is this bottle empty?” Secretary: “Because you drank it!” Enter Peggy and Dr. Miller. Don: “Did you bring ice?”
10:03: Petulant Pete tantrums that he’s not in on Lucky Strike call. Roger tells Pete Clearasil’s out and advises “Throw yourself on the grenade.” Am I on the wrong channel? Is this The Jersey Shore? (“I took the grenade so Pauley could have the pretty one???”)
10:04: Roger calls a false fire alarm to get client off phone. “Look, Radio City’s burning!” I want to work with Roger!
10:05: Roger to Don’s secretary: “Write everything down. Wait, strike that we’re overbilling Lucky Strike.”
10:06: (That column in Pete’s office is like the Dating Game—you never know who’s on the other side.) Oh, look, Harry Crane’s eating at Pete’s desk reading the NYT wedding section. Pete: “Puerto Rican Girls buy brassieres!” Lunch with Cosgrove—tag-a-long Pete!
10:07: Life, lesbians, Peggy & Porn. Where’s Sal???? Nobody could do lesbian like Sal. I miss Sal!!!(And is it me or does Joyce look like she could be the twin sister of Otter from Animal House?)
10:08: Pete meets FIL (father-in-law) for Dewar’s lunch. His High Wasp flag is flying.
10:09: FIL drops the bomb on Pete before Pete can drop the bomb on FIL. Pete’s spawning—the birth of the Young Regan Republicans. And I love FIL’s callous afterthought about his wife, “Jeannie had her uterus removed. Some kind of cyst or something.” (Or was it an illegal abortion???)
10:10: Baby’s out of the bag and Clearasil is off the table.
10:11: Trudy to Pete: “How do you know how this feels?” Go Trudy! (BTW, is it me or is it painful to watch Pete kiss Trudy—so awkward.

Great recap! Glad you mentioned the WASPy overload going on in this one. The conversation between Ken and Pete was hilarious!
