On April 13th Mad Men will return for, what AMC has dubbed, "The Beginning of the End." The final season will be split into two parts, with 8 episodes airing this year and the final 8 next year. AMC has just released the first teaser to the season, which shows Don Draper walking down the stairs of a plane. While the music accompanying his descent is light and airy, giving the scene an almost Los Angeles feel, Draper could also be coming back to New York City to re-enter his collapsed world.
That's Wax Tailor's version of "Que Sera Sera" playing as Draper leaves the plane (h/t Sepinwall):
When we last left Draper he was in a dark place (we'll have a refresher prior to the season premiere), with the final scene of the season showing him with his kids, standing outside of the whorehouse in Pennsylvania he grew up in:
Does this teaser tell us anything? Last season's pre-season artwork showed two Don Drapers, and we did end up seeing him bring the curtain back on Dick Whitman, so there could be clues here, too. So step inside Rust Cohle's storage locker and figure out what this teaser video means!
