Mad Men Roundtable – “Chinese Wall”

I wrongly assumed that the title of this episode referred to the Great Wall of China. It turns out a “Chinese Wall” is an information barrier within a company to prevent conflict of interest issues – it usually has to do with stock activity or keeping advertising and editorial separate, but I think the title specifically refers to Faye providing Don with insider information. And if that’s the episode title, that has to mean it’s going to be a significant event.
