Episode synopsis
Series premiere. U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti) has an 81-and-0 prosecution record on financial crimes and wants to make billionaire hedge-fund king Bobby "Axe" Axelrod (Damian Lewis) his eighty-second. The complication is sitting at Chuck's kitchen table: his wife Wendy (Maggie Siff) has been the in-house performance coach at Axe Capital for fifteen years. Axe didn't get rich by losing.
