When you put all the pieces together, you’re left with one of the strangest and most unsettling, and unsettled, episodes of “Billions” in quite some time. Chuck, Prince, Taylor, Wendy — they all seem to be “at the precipice of a crossroads,” as “The Sopranos” would put it. For all its complexity, this episode is essentially a holding pattern, a brief reprieve before the masters of the universe at its heart select their next lines of attack.
Here’s hoping they let the power go to their heads. If they didn’t, we wouldn’t have much of a show, would we?
I reviewed tonight’s odd episode of Billions for the New York Times.
