WARNING: This article may contain spoilers for Billions season 5 episode 6. Read at your own risk.
Billions season 5 episode 6 is arriving this week on Showtime, with the title "The Nordic Model." It's clear that Chuck Rhoades wants to take down Bobby Axelrod, and we're going to see the former doing his best to destroy the latter's' reputation in this week's episode.
Chuck will once again risk everything to get what he wants and takedown Axe. In Billions season 5 episode 6, the battle between the two revolves around a painting. Chuck sees a painting in Axe's apartment, which leads him to coming up with a new plan.
As it turns out, it is a Van Gogh painting and there is an interesting twist from here. Chuck would not try to prove to everyone that the painting is fake, instead, he's doing the opposite. He'll be working hard to claim that it is real. What's the reason behind his plan?
If ever Chuck proves the authenticity of the painting, then that only means Axe could go down for tax fraud. But aside from this, Chuck also needs to deal with other stuff going on with his life right now. For instance, his father is currently going through a serious medical crisis.
Due to his father's bad habits in the past, he may not possibly get an ideal kidney donor. When it comes to his romantic life, Chuck is also forming a potential relationship with Catherine. Yet, that may be further explored as the series progresses.
The synopsis of Billions season 5 episode 6 notes that the plans of Axe have been threatened after an old scheme resurfaced. For Chuck, he wages war on a new forefront. However, a dangerous gambit will test his budding relationship. Taylor, on the other hand, wants to make an impact in an emerging field.
Also, Axe is starting to have new questions for Wendy. It seems like there's a layer of underlying jealousy every time there's someone who tries to get her attention. Be prepared for some of the exciting stories coming within this episode as the series may go off-air.
Because of the real-life heath crisis happening around the globe, the fifth installment of Billions was split into half. The current arc is almost done, so the series may be off-air at some point. It may not be coming anytime soon, as everything depends on the current situation.
Billions season 5 episode 6 airs on Sunday night, June 7, on Showtime.
