Ken and Pete notify Peggy, Smitty, and Paul that new concepts are needed for the Bacardi rum account. They'll have to work all weekend to generate them while the two account heads and Harry attend a country club party Roger and Jane are throwing. Jane, dressed to the nines, runs into Joan at the office. That night at the Draper home, Sally reads to Gene. The Saturday Bacardi session goes slowly: Peggy, Paul, and Smitty sip rum for inspiration. Sally steals five dollars from Gene but Betty assumes her father is just being forgetful. Joan and Greg prepare their apartment for a Saturday night dinner party. Jeffrey arrives at Sterling Cooper to sell Paul and Smitty some joints. Olive, who has come to work to support Peggy, smells the pot and warns Peggy not to participate. At the country club, Don wanders off to an untended bar where he swaps stories with an older man. At Joan's party, Ronald's wife offers tips about marriage to a young doctor. At dinner time, Gene continues to look for his missing money and Sally finally gives it back to him. Olive frets about Peggy's marijuana smoking and its repercussions, but Peggy says she's capable of accomplishing everything. At Joan’s, the conversation turns to a mishap that occurred while Greg was performing surgery. Joan plays accordion to entertain the guests. Don and Roger discuss Roger’s new happiness. Sally reads to Gene again. Don and Betty embrace in the moonlight outside the club.
