Mad Men, Season 5

Don cites that old firecracker, Bobbie Barrett, who said, ?I like being bad, then going home and being good.? But for Don, it was always just as important, following his various dalliances, to go to work and be good. With its fluorescent lights, clean lines, and library quiet, the workplace was always an antidote to Don?s stormy romantic extracurriculars?a realm that he could master. I always loved that he kept a drawer in the office full of starched white shirts. It felt like the ultimate signifier for a guy who is both prone to caddishness and fixated on appearances. But thinking about it now, those shirts are a metaphor for renewal, as well. A nod to Gatsby, maybe, but also to something darker. Even a snake can shed its skin.
