What will Betty Draper do?
So ... Betty Draper is starting to get an inkling of Don's dark and secret past on Mad Men. In Sunday's episode, she found the box with all his secret things. Really, you'd think he would keep it in a safety deposit box or something. You can't just leave that stuff lying around the house, even in a locked desk drawer. Someone's bound to find it, just as Betty did. My question is what will Betty do with this important information? She' s already been stung by Don's affairs, and now she's got this to contend with.
Betty has been getting a little stronger this season, and I can see her traveling to visit the other Mrs. Draper at some point. Or maybe she'll just hold Don's secret over his head and make him behave -- as if she could. Don's already in a world of trouble, with his stalker girlfriend calling the house and swooping in on him during his morning train ride.
As Bob said in his review, "I think we're about to see the very foundation of Mad Men shaken forever..." Any thoughts on where all of this is headed? Could the upcoming trip Betty's taking with the kids be to California? I can't imagine she'd take the kids to see the other Mrs. Draper, though.
