Mad Men, Season 5

Why did Megan get the part? I think Don was genuinely charmed by her awkward reel. His smile as he watched her wasn?t patronizing; he seemed to regard her as plausible, if not a shoo-in, to play the ?European-type? beauty. But I suspect Don was most moved by his conversation with Peggy (whom he conveniently bumped into at the movie theater?one of several slightly-too-coincidental run-ins in the episode). When he hears she?s doing well, and says ruefully that he always imagined her success would be by his side, she says, ?But that?s what happens when you help someone, they succeed and move on.? Helping Megan get the part is a way of taking her ambitions seriously, and making room for her success in their marriage.
