Can you Betty goes to Bobby's summer camp for a family weekend in "The Better Half", driving down without Henry. In episode 5, "Runaways", Betty speaks her mind about the In episode 9, "New Business," Betty is revealed to be pursuing a master's degree in psychology at In episode 13, "The Milk and Honey Route," Betty begins to feel dizzy and winded at school and falls down while climbing the stairs, fracturing her rib. She connects with Sally's older friend Sandy, who is staying at the house during the holidays. Of course other characters have died during the series, many of them women, dying of cancer before they reached age 40. After moving into Upon seeing that Sally has dramatically cut her hair while under the supposed care of Don, Betty slapped her. There are three things that have been constant through Mad Men's seven season run: drinking, sex, and smoking.Well, one of those things finally caught up with Betty Draper. Betty Francis deserved better.

On the penultimate episode of Mad Men, viewers were shocked by a Betty Draper curveball, that, as far as I can tell by trolling dozens of unhinged messages boards online, very few viewers saw coming. Henry sees the excess attention that Betty receives and is turned on by it, as is Betty, who is beginning to feel more confident about herself. Nonplussed, Betty continued to speak to Sally's psychiatrist, until the psychiatrist said she could continue to meet with Betty in a professional capacity In her free time Sally talked to On July 4, 1966, we find Betty still married to her new husband, and has gained a lot of weight.

Betty confessed to a shocked and speechless Henry that at one point she saw a psychiatrist. She forces him to give her an explanation, and he haltingly tells her about his life as Dick Whitman, how he came to exchange dog tags with Lieutenant Don Draper, and his half-brother After moving into Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce's new office, Don calls Betty and tells her he will not fight her, and he wishes her the best. At the end of a stressful day, Betty makes Don sleep on the floor of the guestroom, but later joins him on the floor, where they make love. The next morning Don wakes up alone and goes down to the cafeteria, where he sees Betty and Henry eating together. She graduated from Bryn Mawr College in 1952 with an Anthropology degree, and briefly modeled in Italy before moving to Manhattan. She tells him he'll always be their children's father.

Later that night, Betty told Henry that she didn't want any secrets between them. While apparently somewhat sympathetic to his feelings of guilt about the latter, Betty is highly conflicted about the fact that Don has hidden this aspect of his life from her for the duration of their relationship and marriage. When Betty goes to the doctor, he finds a lump in her throat that could possibly be cancerous. Although she brings up the subject of During Episode 3, Betty and Don attend a country club party hosted by In Episode 11, Betty corners Don, after getting into a locked drawer in the desk in his home office that contains pictures and documents of Don's past life. Handed a death sentence of his own in the form of the McCann merger, ... falling back into each other's arms in a way the Drapers never could.

Although she brings up the subject of abortion with her doctor, and also has sex with a random man at a bar, she asks Don to return home and tells him that she is pregnant. Betty is last seen reading a newspaper at her kitchen table while smoking a cigarette, as Sally is in the background teaching her younger brother how to wash dishes. Her children hate her new look, but the ever-loving Henry says she looks like Elizabeth Taylor. Don, also on his way to the camp, sees the newly svelte Betty lost at a gas station, and they go down to the campground together. Do we still need the dead body of a woman to draw off the poisonous residue of every one else’s power? Betty Draper is an incredible example of a tragic character: a woman who thought she had everything she ever wanted but learned too late that she could be more than a housewife.

During the Spring of 1963 Betty and Don attend a garden party hosted by In the spring of 1963, she gives birth to Eugene Scott Draper, whom she names after her recently deceased father. Sandy confides in her that she did not get accepted into Juilliard, but has told everyone she did because she wants to go to New York and live in the village. When she discovers Sally has become friends with her old confidant, In episode 8 ("The Better Half"), Betty is back to her original weight and actively campaigning alongside her husband. Betty spent an entire day in the village area looking for her, and discovered that Sandy decided to go to California, and that she even sold her violin. In the Season 2 finale, Betty discovers she is pregnant.

I woke up in the middle of last night mourning Betty Draper Francis’ imminent death.
