Hot Slut Of The Day!
Pauline Francis (as perfectly played by Pamela Dunlap), Henry’s Betty-hating not the one mom on Mad Men – Every ho is talking about Don Draper’s symbolic after-flu sex moment with Carrie Fairchild from Central Park West on last night’s episode, but for me the highlight was Mama Francis!
Mama Francis already deserves Hot Slut accolades for reading Betty like no other last season and last night she got closer to becoming my favorite ho by showing off the two items every white suburban abuelita from the 1960s needs in her babysitting kit: a butcher knife and sleeping pills. Mama Francis, who sort of looks like if Mark Addy played Mrs. Doubtfire, soothed Sally’s fears about the nurse-murdering serial killer by pulling out her security weapon of choice, a knife. Then when Sally’s annoying ass started whining about not being able to sleep, Mama Francis sedated that girl by giving her half of a sleeping pill. That’s is how it’s done. That’s like the rich version of a switch and whiskey on the tongue.
And why does Betty Draper’s house look like the waiting area at the Old Time Spaghetti Factory? I bet her dining room has an iron bed frame as a dinner booth.
