Billions season 3 episode 4 preview: Could Chuck’s father betray him?

Based on some early indications regarding Billions season 3 episode 4, it’s already starting to feel as though some of the walls are starting to close in on Chuck Rhoades. With that in mind, the Showtime drama is starting to pay off some of the promises that this could be the season where the walls really start to close in on these characters and they pay the piper for some of their past mistakes.

For Chuck, what we’ve really seen can be described in pretty simple terms: This is a man who was willing to sacrifice almost anything for the sake of taking down Chuck Rhoades once and for all. Many of these actions were meant with good intentions, but it also morphed itself over time into an obsession. It became just as much about a personal victory as it did justice, and through that we saw that mistakes were happening. There’s now enough of a trail on Chuck for some really difficult charges to come his way, and with that, Connerty is going to do everything that he can to establish some damning evidence on him.

Not only that, but it’s also possible that Connerty may start to put some of the clamps on a few of the people closest to Rhoades … including his own father. You can get a little bit more insight all about that just by reading the official Billions season 3 episode 4 synopsis that CarterMatt has for you below:

Axe explores venture philanthropy. Connerty’s (Toby Leonard Moore) scrutiny of Chuck deepens.

The more that this season 3 story continues, the deeper and more painful things are going to get for both Chuck and Axe — they are both screwed in their own ways. The most painful thing we can imagine though, is Chuck flipping on his son when potential jail time is dangled in front of him. What is more painful than having to deal with the possible of a betrayal like this? There isn’t much…

The latest ratings

For those wondering, season 3 episode 2 generated in total around 840,000 total viewers. That puts the season 3 average at the moment about even with season 2. It doesn’t feel like there’s anything even remotely to worry about when it comes to the future of Billions. It may have gotten off to a somewhat-rocky start, but since that time it’s started to really deliver and found a voice that could keep it on the air for many years to come.
