Mike Prince reigns supreme over what was once Axe Capital, but not content with merely winning he’s out to change the game and build an empire in his image. Chuck Rhoades is determined not just to take revenge, but to eviscerate an entire class of people wielding excessive wealth, entitlement and power – and Prince is at the top of his list. In an unfamiliar battle with new weapons and new rules, alliances will form, forces will be rallied and scores will be settled.

This was a strong moment in what has been an overall lame and confusing season. Episodes 4 through 7 were strong and, I thought, were tilting toward a reunion with Wendy and Chuck. Despite appearances, they actually work as a couple because they're intellectual equals, far more than she did with Axe. But the last episodes, up until this moment, really made no sense and were, frankly, boring.
It's not clear why Chuck is after Prince with such venom. Because he wanted to bring the Olympics to New York? And he had to grease a few palms to do so (which happens all the time)? Chuck is on a high horse – but you almost don't mind seeing him fall off. It's not clear what the stakes are, other than his petty grievances. The writers really lost grasp of what made the early seasons so great – you literally couldn't tell, from one moment to the next, what each character would do. And there was truly things at stake – justice, love, greed, friendship, etc.
And, frankly, I'm tired of seeing so much of Taylor, a character that was once compelling, but now is in too many scenes at the expense of so many other interesting characters. If the writers were smart, she would get her humbling moment too, her arrogance about everything and everyone deserves it. She's an insufferable bore.
Chuck is the goat! 😀
Boycott Showtime for
"It's all gonna be all White"
Mike prince gave a brillainat defeat to a sunky, old basted….
Under better circumstances Chuck, Under better circumstances.
Poor Chuck. This time he'll probably buy an entire island to sulk on.
This episode pissed me off so much, lol.
Chuck was brilliant and he better come back swinging.
Amazing Speech!!! 🔥🔥🔥
cant wait…. Chuck as USAG or POTUS please
This show is nothing but references. So overdone
See Axe could deliver a monologue for the other side like this, Prince struggles to
Great performance, but ffs finally chuck getting what he deserves.. he was getting very annoying
toooo efffg bad Axe opted to be written out. HE WAS Billions. Sorry Prince .. uggghh, you're boring af.
One of his best scenes
I could watch Paul Giamatti chew up scenery all day. When given a monologue the man is hypnotizing. He does subtle just as well as he does ferocious. He is THE finest character actor we have today.
I could just see AXE just smiling at Chuck. you got fucked look lol
Mmmm
'It's always the one guy you counted on"
This is like a scene in GOT except the characters are in suits and tie instead of winter fur coats and outrageous costumes … what a scene!!!
The one guy you counted on, was listening but still had to
No Bobby
No Billions
Give this man an award. "If that's not corruption, I don't know what it is"
this show has gotten boring
Prince's lines was just wow, mostly "Close your eyes Chuck, it’s over" part 😍.
You guys blew my mind…
This whole show is for fifth graders. Always being so dramatic about common fucking knowledge. This guy just made a ten minute metaphor to the Hindenburg. Could have made it one sentence. Besides, the point is that they’re corrupt? The Hindenburg crashed because the engineers fucking crashed it
I'm not in favor of billionaires, I think they've built their empires with the blood, sweat, and tears of their employees. That said, Axe was a monster and a prick and he did deserve to go down for what he did. Prince is no saint, but he's far more ethical and honest about things than Axe was. (That's not much, pond scum was more honest than he was, but at least Prince was going to do something with the Olympics after the show was over.)
The key thing that ties this all together is Chuck. He might not be filthy rich like they are, but he's just as connected if not more so. He's been a horrible prick from the first episode and he's been nothing but a pretentious hypocrite. He was wheeling and dealing backdoor deals for 6 seasons and burning bridges and hurting people like Ira just to get back at his enemies and yes, he used his office for vendettas.
This was long overdue. Long, long overdue. Dave is the most honest character in the entire series thus far. She never hid that she was in her previous job for the money. She never broke any laws or rules, she just did her job. It's a shame that one character, in one season, is the most honest of them all. (Granted, I haven't seen the rest of the season yet. But to this point, she is.)
I didn't want Axe to win except when Chuck was being himself. This time, because Chuck is being himself, he handed Prince the win, and honestly, Prince is the better of two evils.
Chuck said "like helium lifting you to the sky" but wasn't the Hindenburg filled with hydrogen that's why it caught fire?
As much as you hate Chuck you HAVE to love Paul.. this is acting at it's purest! Wow
people talk about the great acting on this show but its the writing……it is some of the absolute BEST Writing ever to be on tv…….
A true gaze into present day
Great actor but..I hate this character so much. Corrupt, born rich, no financial worries. Just his ego.
Paul Giamatti deserves ALL of the acting awards for this portrayal. I've only seen a handful of actors who could carry this scene at such a stellar level.
Honestly, I don't think the Mike Prince actor had to act in that moment.. cause dang, Paul Giamatti IS good. wow.
Play this to Liz Truss right now 😂
Ohhhhh, Agent Harris!!
or u change or u are a dinosaur
I feel like this is a build-up to his ability to sway voters with his words. He's definitely running for President in Season 7
'BOOM' a great way to end a tale of chaos and destruction
