It will make its Showtime debut on Sunday, October 22, at 8 p.m. Thats exactly where we are as we gear up for next weeks series finale.

Axe even has his first visitor, Mike Prince, waiting in a conference room!

(He can insist that he doesnt have doubts, but the dude has doubts.)

Philip asks his uncle if he ever disagrees with Prince.

I cannot wait to see where this goes.

Become the presumptive candidate and boom, hes on the daily briefings list.

On the busiest morning inBillionshistory, Taylor Mason is proving to be no slouch.

(Victor, $Bill, and Rian were unwilling to leave their money behind.)

Ben and Tuk, however, are the only ones who end up unemployed.

I feel for those two, I really do.

But why havent they learned to lock up their emotions in this business by now?

After all, hes still a cuckold.

Thats when we cut to Andy Prince packing a suitcase, announcing that she isdonemaintaining their traditional marriage image.

But wait, Prince has more gloating to do.

News Prince received from Kate Sacker and her brand-new source (Oooh!

No, not really), Chucks SDNY colleague, Amanda Torre.

Even Scooter, Bradford, and Kate are giving Prince Are you okay, dude?

I love thatBillionsis just making fun of itself at this point.

But before Prince can march out of Axe Global screaming, I win!

This scene is really to establish Axes Whats in it for me?

Obviously, it changed at some point, but how?

We dont know what the wrong thing is in this case.

If she does things Axes way.

Which is … what?

Yeah, yeah,weknow that.

(She asks him what he can offer.)

Hes so sure hes locked in Dunlop that he fears nothing anymore.

Prince, Kate, Scooter, Philip, and Bradford on the other.

Axe: I think shell do exactly what we need her to.

We still need to find out what that is!!!

It does feel like the Axe/Chuck side is deliberately taunting the others as part of their act, though.

Remember how I didnt buy Kate Sackers Uber-bitchy attitude last week?

I think theyreallfaking here.

Maybe not for the same reasons, but ulterior motives are certainly on the agenda.

All five of them somberly watch MSNBC report the Prince-Dunlop news together.

Hes not only minted, hes scored a Camp David invite.

I think Team Axe/Chuck has Prince exactly where they want him.

Besides, we still havent gotten the backstoryon the scenethat kicked this whole season off.

The one where Prince tosses a vase into Wendys office and drops a bunch of F-bombs?

See you next week, for the last time.

Im curious to see what these two are cooking up.

I really liked Rians vagabonding send-off.
