'Billions' Season 5 Episode 10 Spoilers: Will Rhoades Sr betray Axe in the future?

'Billions' Season 5 reminds us of the 'Billions' of the old. The sizzling drama, the non-stop banter, the overkill with pop culture references, and some solid story-telling make the second half of the financial drama a great watch. The previous episode saw Mike Prince (Corey Stoll), Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti), and Taylor (Asia Kate Dillon) collectively gather under one roof with one common goal — Decimate Bobby Axelrod (Damian Lewis).
The question is where do they start, and how? In our opinion, Taylor could be the mole, Prince could be the distraction and Rhoades will be the one to look at the finances. The smoke and mirrors approach could be one of the plans to bring down Axe, who, rest assured, will have a comeback. And ahead of the episode's premiere, we attempt to examine what we could make out from the promo so far

Is Rhoades Sr siding with Axe?
If Taylor could be Chuck's mole, then there's no reason to believe why Rhoades Sr won't be the same inside man for Axe. There is a caveat though, as we don't know for certain if the old man is playing both sides. The promo sees Rhoades Sr being asked to join a dinner plan that Chuck and Prince to get a hint of what's coming. In case he does play along, this would prove dangerous for Axe. Remember, he did want Axe to squirm.

Why is Axecap being shut?
Mostly to keep Chuck from coming after the company while Axe tries to solve the Bank conundrum. It won't come as a surprise if this is the end of Axecap and all the employees who he promised would return, would be back as bank employees.
