Don Draper fires Jaguar during a tense dinner with Herb Rennet, Rennet's wife Peaches, Draper's wife Megan, and Megan's visiting mother, Marie Calvet. This jeopardizes the planned IPO (which Don was unaware of), and Joan, upset to learn that her sexual tryst with Rennet, which helped to secure the Jaguar account, has now been negated, angrily makes her feelings known. Roger has managed to get SCDP into a previously closed meeting with GM for the new Chevy. SCDP loses the Vicks Chemical Company account after Pete Campbell runs into his father-in-law at a brothel. Don drinks at a hotel bar in Detroit with Ted Chaough, from Cutler Gleason and Chaough, and proposes their two firms merge in order to win the Chevy account. After their success, Don and Ted declare a visibly distraught Peggy the copy chief of the new firm and task her with writing the press release announcing the merger of the two companies.
