Mad Men Season 5 Episode 4: More of Don's Demons in Mystery Date


With Mad Men back on our screens, it was only a matter of time before the drama took a twisted turn, and I have to say...wtf is going on? Don is a murderer? Was it a dream, or a memory?

The fourth episode of series five, titled Mystery Date, sees Jon strip naked for a dream sequence. Hawt, but really not as he is strangling some poor woman who fell for daper Don.

    Draper takes to his bed after falling ill and is visited by old flame Andrea, played by Mädchen Amick. When Andrea, whom he had an affair with, turns up on his doorstep, he initially gets her to leave.

    However, after crawling back into bed, he soon wakes to find her next to him, with her claiming that he accidentally left the door unlocked.
    The pair then end up having sex, before Draper awakes again and tells her the romance is over.
    But soon they are arguing and he hurls her off the bed before strangling her.

    He's then forced to hide her body under the bed, with one of her stilettos eerily peeping out.
    Once again, Don collapses on the bed and when he wakes in the morning viewers see wife Megan bring him breakfast.
    With Andrea's body gone, the audience are left wandering if the murder is fact or fiction.
