The last time Don heard from Stephanie, she was pregnant, and due to deliver sometime soon.

When Don, somewhat worse for wear after a bender, asks to see her little one, Stephanie reacts with anger. She gave him up. Margaret is defiant; Peggy is pensive but determined, and Joan buckles but perseveres. But Stephanie is struggling. When Don first arrives, Stephanie assumed that her parents had sent him to try to talk her out of her decision, to shame her into raising her son.

When asked how she feels in the midst of group therapy at the retreat, Stephanie pleads her case. She says it makes her feel small and insignificant. Don, of course, goes after her and tries to reassure her. He dismisses what the woman said. As painful as it is, Stephanie wants to hear the truth. Don tries his old standby. He tells Stephanie that this does not have to define her, that as he once told Peggy, she could be amazed at how much this never happened.

But Stephanie shuts him down. It can work that way for Don, for a while at least. He can, for a time, embark on a new life without the reverberations of the old one, and keep running until it all finally catches up with him. Stephanie has to carry the ignominy of being a mother who gave up her child. She breaks down, and Don comforts her. In those moments, Diana still carries herself with a certain understated melancholy, but she allows herself to smile.

But Diana shuts him down and reveals the other part of her secret. Diana confesses to Don that she had two daughters, and that when her younger daughter died, she left her oldest with her husband in Wisconsin and left for New York. She left her daughter without a mother. She mentions that twinge she felt when she was with Don, how it felt wrong. The little joys she experienced with Don feel undeserved and shameful.

Or maybe it's all just a strange coincidence. Both Margaret's parents thought their daughter had been acting strange as of late — "strange and philosophical," as they put it.

While Mona Sterling Talia Balsam blamed Roger for her daughter running off into the arms of another man — or many, possibly with many drugs — they both put their differences aside to try and rescue their daughter after her husband had failed to. After pulling up to a rustic old house turned hippie commune, Mona and Roger, draped in their Manhattan finest, couldn't convince Margaret — now named Marigold and donning hippie threads — to leave.

Weiner has proven repeatedly that he lacks sentimentality for his characters, often abandoning them in the same way we abandon colleagues, friends, and sometimes even family in real life. Glen came back after a 10 episode absence, which seems like a long time—until you factor in some of the other long gaps Mad Men characters had between appearances.

She made one appearance in a season two episode before disappearing for what fans of the show assumed to be forever. Bush administration. Nobody cares. Vogel reappeared after nearly two seasons away from the show, though, and in the most unexpected of places: a whorehouse that Pete and Bob Benson happened to be patronizing.
