Bobby Axe Axelrod Damian Lewis has been undeniably adrift and borderline unstable since losing his loyal ally Wendy Rhoades Maggie Siff, but hes kept it together with the allegiance of the soldiers at Axe Capital. In this weeks episode of Billions, Axe makes one of the most striking mistakes of his professional career, and were forced to wonder if he would have done so with Wendy and Wags David Costabile by his side. Is it a coincidence that Axe Capital is facing the first down quarter in its entire history after Wendy quits and Wags gets caught in a debauched spiral While Axe tries to pull out of a company nosedive, Chuck Rhoades Paul Giamatti and his team move closer to the wolf theyve been hunting for weeks. Until the episodes final act, Axe and Chucks narratives are pretty divided, so lets pull them apart for the sake of coherence. We first see Chuck in a very revealing therapy session. Dont miss the body language on the couch that the Rhoadeses share They are on opposite ends, and it looks unlikely that their marital freeze will thaw. Wendy is telling a story about how annoyed she gets when Chuck shows up in a suit to casual parties and dinner dates. However, what she takes as pomposity is really Chucks insecurity He reveals that he dresses as well as possible to try and alleviate the impression that shes out of his league. He has to strut his stuff and show his feathers. Its interesting to consider this overcompensation in the way that Chuck behaves at the office too, always telling stories and trying to gain the upper hand. His latest story is one told to Sacker Condola Rashad about hunting wolves when he was a kid, and its the lead in to the handling of Tom Mc. Directed by Bill Anderson. With Charlie Cox, Sophie Winkleman, Colin Starkey, Jack Ellis. DI Robert Lewis teams up with DS James Hathaway to look into the murder of. The Fosters season 4 will go on a long hiatus and will return with episode 11 in January 2017. The summer finale of the Freeform show ended on a devastating note for. Kinnon Ross Partridge their inside man at Spartan Ives, and the one they hope will take down Lawrence Boyd Eric Bogosian. To say that Mc. Kinnon isnt the ideal spy is an understatement He basically tries to get a co worker to implicate himself while hes taking a leak. It doesnt work, of course. Chuck lets Mc. Kinnon off the hook, knowing full well that hell be back. Dont forget that Mc. Kinnon knows Boyd is sleeping with his wife. Vengeance is a powerful motivator. Naturally, its not long before an opportunity presents itself for Mc. Kinnon to get back in the game. Hes going to have dinner with his wife, Boyd, and Boyds wife. What could possibly go wrong To steel his courage, Mc. Kinnon drinks a bit too heavily. At first it looks like hes going to blow the deal, but he eventually gets Boyd to admit to the malfeasance allowing Chuck and company to get an arrest warrant, as well as yet another interaction between Chuck and Axe two weeks in a row. But before we get to that. After a deal with a company called Sansomic goes wrong, Axe learns from Boyd that the press and public are about to crucify him for the upcoming down quarter revelation. This is an important bookend, because Boyd gives Axe insider information to protect himself, although this is something Axe chooses not to do in the final act. Axe needs a big play from his staff to stop the down quarter from even happening. He knows that his staff is playing it safe, trying to keep their individual numbers up so they can get their bonuses. The speech here is interesting when compared to other Axe Capital speeches You can sense the tension in Axes voice, and the outright anger. Nobody can leave the building until they have an idea that stops the bleeding. Dollar Bill Kelly Au. Coin has one, but he cant express it to Axe while his new chief of staff, Steph Reid Shaunette Ren. Its clearly not coincidental that Axe Capital is now operating aboveboard and sinking below water financially. It turns out that Mafee Dan Soder has a groundbreaking idea, even if Axe has to hear about it from Deb Ilfenesh Hadera because Mafee hysterically smoking in a bathroom stall to avoid everyone is too scared to tell him. Im sorry if it does. Axe learns that Mafee has an old colleague, nicknamed Eveready for how good he is at what he does, and Mafee is worried that he will take his place. Its too late. They need the play. Axe learns that the Nigerian currency is about to be devalued. He has insider information and research that confirms it basically, the Nigerian oil industry is weaker than portrayed. If Axe takes a massive short position against it, he can basically help push it over the line, but hell need more ammunition than he has to make that possible. He first goes to Boyd, who declines, so he essentially brings in the other risk takers in his field Malverne Dennis Boutsikaris, Krakow Danny Strong, and Birch Jerry OConnell, who screwed Axe over way back in the pilot, leaking information to get him in trouble and distract Chuck. Axe knows they hate him, but will they help him if its beneficial to their own self interestIt turns out that not all of them will. Birch leaks the info, so now the banks know. The deal is falling apart, and Birch is the one who sabotaged it. He realized what Axe did to him, and vengeance can be sweeter than making a fortune. Axe even admits that he would have done the same if the roles were reversed. Its a crucial mistake for Axe, and he needs Wags back as soon as possible. He gets good news on the casino project that could make him a fortune in upstate New York, and he convinces Krakow and Malverne to stay in the deal. They can still make it work. Finally, Axe reunites with Wags, who comes to him bright eyed after two days in therapy with Wendy. We get only one real scene from that session, but its a good one. Costabile and Siff are fantastic together, since both have such strong intellectual energy that they can play off each others wit. With little prodding, Wendy gets Wags to find the source of his recent tailspin an encounter with an old colleague and mentor, who Wags realized was suffering from early onset Alzheimers. It was a vision of his own looming mortality and then Axe hired Steph, filling a role often taken by Wags. He goes back to Axe, ready to leave, only to learn that Axe just fired Steph, calling himself a fucking terminator. Wags is back Axe gets a call that the feds are coming with a warrant for Boyd. If he tells him, Boyd will cancel the appearance, the Nigerian play will fail, and Axe Capital will have its first down quarter. Of course, he doesnt say a word. Boyd gets the cuffs, and Chuck Rhoades has one of his first victories in weeks. The case will keep him employed. He eats gloriously fatty food at a deli to celebrate. Shell always be Mrs. Axelrod even as Axe is overly cruel in their final scene together, tearing apart her business plan or lack thereof. Laras role has been relatively underdeveloped this season, but I think thats about to change. It always gives the show a propulsive momentum, adding to the tension of key moments.
