![]() The man had originally agreed to work for food and shelter for the night, but the wife had offered him a coin. Just wanted to do an honest days work for some pay or food. The hobo wasn’t a con-man of any sorts that I could tell. I believe the inferrence is that his dad knocked up some other chick, and they’re raising him - and Don must have heard himself called a “whore child” once or twice. The mom is not his though, and he has a lot of resentment towards her as told to us in other episodes. It’s been awhile since I saw that episode, but here’s what I remember…ĭon’s dad in that flashback is really his father. I loved the line at the end where bearded-hippy guys says:īHG: *You can’t go out there, because of the cops. But the symbol on the post did not have a line thru it- are we to assume that it means “an honest man lives here”? In that case, it must be referring to Dan, since his foster father went back on his promise to pay the Hobo after he worked the next day (presumably). Are we to assume that that event was pivotal in Dan’s life to lure him to NYC?Īnd about the Hobo code- what was the meaning of the symbol he etched into the fence post? In the part where he explained to code, that sickle shaped symbol, with a line thru it meant “a dishonest man lives here”. The Hobo was, I think, a sort of a con man, although not too dangerous. He’s a “whore child”, which I assume means he was adopted by that family. The little boy, of course, is Dan Draper as a child. ![]() But I’m a bit confused about what went on in “The Hobo Code”. ![]() OK, so I’m catching up on Mad Men, and it has really gotten a lot more complicated.
