Mike Prince has been able to finesse his way out of sticky situations so far in season seven of Showtime’s Billions, but the promo for episode five teases that Chuck Rhoades isn’t ready to throw in the towel just yet. Episode five – “The Gulag Archipelago” – will air on Paramount+ with Showtime on Friday, September 8, 2023.
