Duck Phillips was last seen being escorted out of a meeting with Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce after drunkenly disrupting the proceedings.
In the television series “Mad Men,” Duck Phillips, played by Mark Moses, is a recurring character who experiences a tumultuous career and personal life. Initially introduced as the Head of Account Services at Sterling Cooper, Duck is portrayed as a seasoned advertising executive with a problematic relationship with alcohol. His tenure at the agency is marked by attempts to modernize the company and a power struggle with Don Draper.
Duck’s personal life is equally troubled; he is divorced and struggles to maintain a relationship with his children. His alcoholism frequently interferes with his professional performance, eventually leading to his dismissal from Sterling Cooper. After leaving the agency, Duck makes several reappearances, often trying to poach talent from his former employers or to bring business to the firms he later works for.
His most notable return to the series occurs when he attempts to join Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce. However, this effort is thwarted by his inebriated state during a crucial meeting, where he makes a scene and is subsequently removed from the premises. Duck’s character arc is a tragic one, showcasing the pitfalls of addiction and the cutthroat nature of the advertising industry during the 1960s.
