[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Then what was the point of the Sally/Betty scene at the end? We know Weiner doesn't put things in the show for no reason, but it sounds like most people don't give it any value?[/quote]

I thought it was sad and powerful.  Even as she is dying, Betty just can't break out of the mold/world she knows. She could have asked Sally to sit with her, talk, maybe should could have helped Sally with the dishes. But she sat there smoking in silence.  She is probably igving her the cold shoulder for telling Don in the first place. This is how she often reacts when Sally is out of line.  Sally is probably feeling confused and guilty and wanting to do the right thing but no idea what that means. I do think Don comes back and is in the kids lives but no more so than he is now, so just weekends or holidays..  and honestly, I think he and Sally are pretty close in their own "friend" way and they respect each other.  Sally understands Don's limitations as well as he does.   Even Sally knows the boys don't belong with Don which is why she wants don to convince Henry to take them so they can maintain some stability. That is saying a lot about her expectations of her dad.  At least those two are honest with each other. [/quote]
