Looks to be a solemn episode, with a partner hanging himself in the office and all. Also sad Betty won't be fat next season. And of course we're all sad this is the last episode until who knows when (although we can be happy Falling Skies is starting next week.)

I think we can assume this episode picks off where the other left off. No way they just skip over the storyline of Lane's demise.

I think we find out just how deep Lane really was in the shite. A lot of the bloggers I read are convinced that we haven't seen the last of the mobster from the first episode of the season.

I just want to see more of Alexis Bledel.

MM hasn't been big on dramatic plot twists or cliffhangers.

Kicking Pete's swarmy arse.

Is the show going to run on this new schedule from now on? It use to run from August to October but due to contract negotiations was pushed back. Will he now have to wait till next May?

He returned his lost wallet and creeped on his mistress.

Oh yeah. I didn't know that was a mobster.

That could explain why a a finance man like Lane could suddenly overextend himself.

Yeah, it wouldn't make sense, with MM timeline moving weeks or months ahead each episode.

Everyone remember last season's finale was kind of mundane outside of Don's engagement. Good episode but in the context of a being a finale, it was kind of poor. Hopefully they give us something good tonight.

No kidding. I half expect a passing reference to something that Ken said at Pete's 4th of July party as an explanation for a random new cast member.

Wait, there's expected to be a time jump in tonight's episode?

No, but just hypothesizing.

Glad LSU is getting blown out so I can watch this in real time.
