Thanks for the chapter Kpatch. Boy Philip sure has a short attention span. He was with Morgan, thinking about Belle and calling her, then Stephanie. All in less then 24 hours. Looking forward to the next chapter and getting Almond Joys for previews on the weekend.

For whatever else I could say about Stephanie, she is a beauty. Sorry to break the news to Philip but I know Don Draper well enough to bet that Stephanie is already "involved" with him. It was good "seeing" Philip and Don in the same room Kpatch - Thanks so much for those scenes!!

Very interesting chapter Kpatch. I guess for Philip it's all about...choices, choices and more choices. I can't to see what happens next.

Yikes! How can he even keep his mind on work with all these chicks running through his head? I suppose one of them is going to make some roots, though...but who???

OFFICES OF STERLING COOPER ADVERTISING
As Stephanie spoke, Philip found himself mesmerized. It wasn't just that Stephanie was pretty. There was something special about her. She was poised and articulate and had an engaging smile, a sparkle in her eye, and conviction in her voice. He got lost in her hazel eyes and realized he had stopped listening to her presentation. He shook himself and tried to focus on what she was saying.
Don: So, Philip, what do you think?
Philip: That was very compelling. I like her ... ideas. How soon can you show me some storyboards?
Don: We can email a draft to you by next Thursday.
Philip: Sounds good.
The men shook hands and left the conference room as Philip lingered behind. As Stephanie put her slides away and gathered her presentation materials, she became aware that Philip was staring at her.
Stephanie: You don’t remember me, do you?
Philip: Remember you? Do ... do we know each other?
Stephanie: Oh yes.
Philip: Oh. Um. Did we ever ...?
Stephanie laughed.
Stephanie: I’ll let you off the hook. I’m Stephanie Johnson. Steve and Kayla’s daughter.
Philip: You’re little Stephanie? The last time I saw you, you were ...
Stephanie: Probably a preteen. I remember I used to see you at my Uncle Bo’s Fourth of July barbecues when I came back to Salem every summer to visit my grandma. Last thing I remember about you, you were joining the Marines.
Philip: Small world. How about grabbing some lunch?
Stephanie: I thought you said you had a meeting after this one.
Philip: Nah. I just didn’t want to spend a lot of time in a stuffy conference room with a bunch of suits.
Stephanie: What’s that you’re wearing? Looks like a suit to me.
Philip smiled. He liked women who weren’t afraid to challenge him. Stephanie smiled back.
Stephanie: Sure, let’s go have lunch.
To be continued on Monday ...

Great chapter Kpatch. I enjoyed the interaction between Philip and Stephanie. I can't wait to see what happens next. How about a Pina Colada with a few Almond Joys on the side. FYI, one of the show sponsors yesterday was Almond Joy and Mounds candy bars. |

I was worried about Stephanie coming back. I didn't like her with Phillip, but this must be the original red haired Stephanie. I liked her, and she a Philip are cute together so far.

I, too, was worried about Stephanie coming back. However, I knew that, with jkjpatch writing her, it would all work out just fine. And, it has. She seems like she's the Shelley Hennig Stephanie's body with the Shayna Rose Stephanie's personality. I like it! I like it a lot!
Great story, jkjpatch! I'm lovin' it!
