Answer: Don's half-brother

Until Adam, an Empire State Building janitor, saw Don's photo in a discarded copy of "Advertising Age", he believed that Don had died while serving in the Army. While thrilled to have found his big brother, Adam is heartbroken when Don tells him to forget everything and never come around again.

Don is meeting with his brother Adam at a diner when his family arrives at his office. Having earlier heard her boss' steamy telephone call, Peggy assumes that Don is with Midge.

9. In what magazine is Trudy successful in getting Pete's story published?

Answer: Boy's Life

The consummate sleaze, Pete Campbell is furious with his beautiful new bride for refusing to sleep with her old boyfriend who could have published Pete's article in a more prestigious magazine.
10. What does Don give Adam as a parting gift?

Answer: Money

After receiving a photograph of himself as a young soldier standing with a 9 year old boy, Don decides to meet Adam, and takes something from his desk drawer and puts it into a briefcase. What many viewers think is a handgun turns out to be a $5000 wad of cash that Don offers his half-brother to leave New York and never see him again. Tearfully, Adam says, "That's not what I wanted, that's not right." Don later tells his wife that they cannot afford a summer house as, "We're not that flush right now."
