from the TV drama that seemingly came
out of nowhere and left us shocked and
bewildered why would he say anything
because he was caught with chewing gum
on his furious if there’s a moment or
scene you think should be on here be
sure to check out our other list of the
top 10 Mad Men scenes do you drive a
hell of a bargain number 10 lane price
fights Pete Campbell I know cooler heads
should prevail but am I the only one who
wants to see this everyone knows a
person usually a co-worker or boss that
you would just love to punch in the face
that’s good for lane Pryce and for most
people on the show that person was Pete
Campbell everyone in this office has
wanted to do that to Pete Campbell after
putting up with Pete’s arrogance long
enough
Blaine challenges him to a fight while
dawn Roger and Burt watch with a mixture
of surprise and curiosity this is
medieval both men get some solid shots
in but Lane takes this round with a
beautiful one-two combo that puts Pete
on his back number 9
dawn resolves a dispute with Bobbie
Barrett he looked great Don Draper is a
man who gets what he wants and he’s
willing to do whatever it takes to do so
I’m gonna be brief because I don’t like
leaving him alone out there while
negotiating with Bobbie Barrett over the
terms of her husband’s apology
Don grows frustrated with her increasing
demands I think an apology and a public
one like this one has to be worth
$25,000 and I wanted in the paper he
pushes her up against the table and
guides his hand up her dress
believe me
I will ruin man he then wipes his
fingers on the dress and walks away as
if nothing’s ever happened
number eight lane Pryce commits suicide
lane Pryce was a complicated character
filled with personal demons and this
became more apparent throughout the
course of the series you embezzled funds
and you forged my signature I apologize
deeply for involving you stuck in
serious financial debt Lane forges
Dawn’s signature on a business check
when Dawn finds out he immediately fires
Lane by demanding his resignation just a
moment
I’m sorry and I am remorseful left with
no other options
Lane tries to commit suicide by gassing
himself only to fail because the Jaguar
doesn’t start
he eventually hangs himself in his
office and it’s a tragic end to a
conflicted character
gets him to come down number seven
boy stur lunch and after math I can make
more coffee some say that revenge is a
dish best served cold for Don Draper
it’s a dish best served with oysters and
martinis you’re throwing yourself at him
giggling at his stories after Roger hits
on Betty

to a business lunch where the pair
devour oysters and down martinis I think
I woke my ulcer up little this Roger

say I never taken anywhere he hears
music from a liquor bottle and his

the edge when he’s accidentally shot in

classic Mad Men it comes out of nowhere
we were not expecting it and we have no
idea how to react what happened luckily

from handling Chevy you sure you want to
do this I’m positive
