let him fall

I just started watching the fourth season yesterday. When the title came out, I watched DON still fall down with the collapsed world. I thought, this is it, the dream I had that time came from here.
A while ago, I had a very beautiful and scary dream. I dreamed that I was walking with an old friend on the wooden floor of my house as thin as an eggshell. As I walked, I had a hidden worry: it would fall in the next second. As a result, it really fell. I stepped on the air, and the horror of falling was absolutely true. Why is my home so weak? When I woke up, I was also confused by this dream. Now I know that it turned out to be the cause that was planted by Mad Men and went into my dream.
DON's world is also so unreal - life experience, experience, marriage, work, looks bright, can be overturned in an instant, precarious. He has childhood shadows, a tragic family, a fake identity, a stolen name, and a wife who doesn't know his secrets at all. But he's still a successful man, a great ad creative. Every advertisement is his voice - the definition of happiness, the digging of the hidden desires and fears in the heart.
As the poster brings, DON's black back is so lonely. Although I saw him cheating several times, playing tricks with opponents, arrogant, and fierce, but I felt that he was helpless, terrified, and pitiful. Cheating and infidelity is a capital offense, and sometimes it's really rough with the female subordinate peggy, but I can't hate him (it sounds like I'm already split).
Maybe you just can't judge this person simply, his pain comes from every person who has a black hole in his heart. Even if it is a life full of lies, there is a real and bloody truth inside. We were silent because all the struggles seemed familiar. Whether it's the lingering pressures of childhood, the strange twist of fate, or the treacherous rush to the professional field. In the 1960s in the United States, did the group of advertising men in the tide of the times really create a legendary history? I am afraid that it will inevitably dissipate in the end, and the glamorous red lips of the high-rise buildings will fall one after another, sinking into the boundless darkness.
