Between the firings (Lane is telling Bert Peterson to shut the door) and Don's relationship with his family ("I will always come home"), it does a much better job of setting the scene for season 3 than "For Those Who Think Young". I also couldn't help but notice the scene where Roger, Pete, and Bert all have a drink in Don's office ("I don't care what they say. London Fog is a great name.") They all seem so burned out...exhausted with it all. It is also fun to note that they all go to unwind in Don's office - they are already gravitating around their new leader. Don is the alpha of the pack - the one that will lead them to their new home. .
