Confrontation Confrontation Confrontation

Warning: Spoilers
After almost 3 seasons Betty finally confronts Don about everything he's been hiding from her since the beginning. Those 15 minutes of that confrontation is pure television. It's also the first time we've seen Don scared and provoked, where he's the one that's not taking lead, and this time he can't manipulate his way out of it or lie because Betty has all the evidence. That is one of the best scenes in this show hands down. The subplots in the episode are definitely good but nowhere near the main one. There is character development for Roger Sterling, he turns down an old girlfriend for once in his life because he has a wife that's "the one for him" and Joan hits her husband over the head with a pot finally standing up to him for all the times he was a huge ass and tries to get a job with the help of Roger. Don and Miss Farrell finally break it off after the confrontation. Overall an extremely good episode, and that last line gave me chills in my spine.
