SEASON FINALE: Last week’s episode was a very smart shocker. The entire hour led you to believe – misled you to believe, really – that in their ruthless game of high-stakes financial chess, Damian Lewis’ billionaire Axe was the master manipulator, holding the upper hand against Paul Giamatti’s government district attorney Chuck. Then, in the last surprise moments, the truth was revealed like an unexpected magic trick: Chuck had been one step ahead of Axe all along, and had succeeded in suckering his wealthy adversary into a costly Wall Street failure. The Axe has fallen – and tonight, in the season finale, we see where, and how, the pieces fall.
