re: Mad Men Season 7 Episode 9: "New Business"

I'm as big of a Mad Men fan as any, but the last two episodes have been a major disappointment. We are two episodes in and have literally zero story direction or arcs yet. The waitress storyline has been a total disaster. We have so little time and why are we supposed to care about this? There are six episodes left and just spent an entire one on a random waitress and Megan's family. Where the frick is Sally? Did the first half of this season even happen because I feel like we are back in Season 6. All of the growth Don appeared to have is nonexistant.

I hate to get all chicken little, but I am officially worried that Weiner might be in the process of shitting the bed hard. I want to blame it on the split, but that's a terrible excuse. The first half of this season was so good, but I'm not sure what's happening now.
