Axe and Wendy's relationship are the core of this show. Their chemistry is beyond compare.
The Axe and Wendy scenes are the best part of a great show. Billions is awesome.
They never really explained why Bobby had such strong devotion to Wendy... until now. Probably the reason why Lara was the green eyed monster around her, she could sense something happened between them.
Lara played herself, she was unkind, reckless and overtly ambitious. She was trying so much to be like Axe and there can only be one Axe. She lost him when she took his kids and his money just to teach him a lesson, when she did that I knew they were done. Wendy is badass but sensitive and most importantly she has proven her loyalty over and over. I'm sure they will still take us back to why Axe and Wendy didn't get together.
@@olamiti i think it's cause Axe started sating Lara so it just never happened
@@olamitiLara was really only concerned with money and authority. When Axe was in trouble, she began divorce proceedings and division of money and property. Threatening to take children away is manipulation. At that moment, Axe needed the support that Wendy always gave. She received "good money" for it, but it was sincere. Axe, like anyone else, needs support, emotional. He often emphasized that she “will put his head in place.” He also supports Wendy. But he, as a strong person, is able to rip out of the heart of the one who betrays him. This is his strength.
@@user-dx6jz4uc4d Have you started watching these new episodes? It's picking up nicely very intriguing
@@olamiti Yes, I watched Season 5 Episode 9, I'm waiting for the rest of the episodes.
Y'all can't tell me this is the first time you're realizing that there's something between Wendy and Axe, remember when he got arrested in the street the way Wendy hugged him. Remember when he was in court and was willing to take the rap for her? He wouldn't let anything happen to her! Then their night session??? These two have a deep love and respect for one another. Even when they fight
He also lied to her a lot. He was very sneaky. As much as she cared, dreamed about,attracted to, wanted, loved him, he still has been known to have ladies sexually active and passive aggressive behavior. Including or not limited family ;hunks, punks.
@@annettewright4135 True, those are character flaws he has. However, they still don't detract from the love and respect they have for each other. Their bond is a deep one, one that is forged in the fires of conflict, much like the brotherhood borne in war between soldiers.
Just started with the series and season 1 ep 2, I felt their chemistry..the reason why I came on youtube to check it out😅
The writing on this show is epic. Good life lessons and no bullshit.. straight forward..
"You were loyal to me in the face of the world but in private you held me into account. And you were loyal to the bigger cause."
Fuck. That's love, whether platonic or romantic. Even before this show, this is what I envisioned to be as a partner and friend for my loved ones and vice versa.
God...so intense and impactful. Axe is the man and then some!
rewatching. CRYING. Powerful.
Finally found out why Wendy is so important to him. Why she is his true work wife.
@@ivanavais5972 His marriage ended because Laura didn't want his business advice and was going to leave him if he went to jail. Even threatened to take the kids and run. #NoLoyalty And for someone like Axelrod...without loyalty, she might as well be invisible.
@@NOL1FEK1NG since axe farther left loyalty for him means everything wendy have shown to be loyal in public and hold him acountable in private she never willingly betray him and that for axe is worth more then anything
@@ivanavais5972 I think your right but I don’t think he actually realizes that yet.
When these two hook up it will be epic.
It's way overdue, but the interval is perfect. Also, the fight between him and Chuck will go absolutely nuclear. Can't wait.
I don't think Axe is the type of guy who wants to get tied up and scourged by 'catwoman'.
This was the best moment of the episode. And something is developing for the fifth season.
nah they wont fuck , they are just friends who trust and respect each other alot
@@samy8897 who said anything about fucking?, I was talking about their relationship.
This scene showed us how wonderful deep connection between these two, and it’d be great and perfect that they never cross the line until the show’s end.
I love this scene! It's got to be my favorite of the entire series so far. Can't wait till next season!
Such a wonderful actor. Damian Lewis!
The dialogues between these two characters are wonderful. The unconditionality you have turns the relationship into something very sexy. Each dialogue gradually reveals, what is the true feeling one has for the other even if they escape the spark in between.
I see where this is going and I'm enjoying the slow burn.
It's like cooking ribs. Put them on the flames a blazing, and they turn tight, and they stick to the bone in a nasty way. Put them away from the flames, but still under the cover, and cook them for a long time, and they melt in your mouth like butter, and fall right off the bone.
Here after episode 10, was rooting for this all this time!
These have been my favourite scenes between Wendy (Maggie) and Bobby (Damian) in the entire season. They're the best female-male friendship-partnership out in TV. Even better than Good Wife's Diane and Will. Love it!
Why the fuck did she set chuck up like? Please God let Bobby continue to have the discipline to avoid sleeping with Wendy.
Pure smack bang wallop material. 2 of the best actors in the world bar Paul giamatti 👌
Axe sets the bar so high...I feel so bad for Chuck sometimes
He paid 2 Million for her medical license because he could afford it - Chuck doesn't stand a chance
@@sonia5698 chuck didn't try to do anything and when she askeed him about it he lied.
Axe clearly needs wendy in his life, something that really seems like love sometimes. Altough Chuck really likes Wendy , he finds true hapiness when ascending true Power and crushing his adversaries
You should include where she goes home and ask her husband when he knew...Such contrast!
Yes, that was weak writing. His devotion to all things Wendy, and suddenly doesnt remember? Unlikely at best. Also, it made me think: she just threw him under the bus to use a NA term (whilst he is trying to help her), but here she is wanting more from him without giving a damn inch back in return. A lot of me, me, me, me, me.
Wendy is Perfect
What a scene. Bobby is so determined and loyal, though he can be pretty nasty in the business.
This is amazing. Taylor is amazing. It's like we're all drifting in eternity to go beyond the ego and capture the moments in the series.
this scene is so powerful! One of the bests!
Pure acting skill right here guys, and the greatest monologue ever written for television. Also, shows how Axe did not profit from 9/11. Instead was trying to do something nice and maybe secure the loyalty of the people. At least his heart was in the right place.
God that woman is stunning.
Loyalty is Royalty!
Chuck: You're going to lose your license for six months. Or was it 18 months? Sorry, I forgot. You also need to plead guilty, I've made some deals behind your back - you just need to sign them. Do you still need me here? I have this other thing at noon.
Axe: You are my partner in this for life. You are going to fight this and I will back you to the ends of the earth on it.
@@deepakbubna That was probably nothing to him. I mean, I wonder how much he would really pay to help Wendy if she needed it
I’m sure they’ll get together next season and I’m so ready for this
And they did get together, somewhat, at the end of Season 5. But I am so hoping season 7 ends with them getting together officially. Preferably in Fiji. lol!@@a.k.jatsanjose9637
Okay, if this isn’t reason for them to get together after everything I don’t know what is.
THIS is the best part of the show... when Axe and Wendy are working together to get something done. All the forced "Taylor" stuff by whoever is their connection on the show and has been writing things around them has hurt the show and the story line more than they realize. I hope there is more of stuff like THIS in the video above, in next season. ❤️👍
I agree. Taylor's non gender binary is fine as a backstory much like Dollar Bill's cheapness and bigamy but I don't want either being central to the show.
I don't understand why the media, tv shows and movies try so hard to normalise these new sex genders in a forced way that ruins the quality of their product. The first time Taylor introduced herself to bob, telling him to call her/him (they) I thaught at first that she was joking. I have no problem calling you he/she but anything else would cause confusion and would be time consuming, if everyone has a preference.
@@dopperlight2015 Hollywood literally has check boxes now to satisfy Environmental Social and Global scores. If they dont they wont get considered for awards and stuff. You are right. it’s wrecking basic storytelling.
I never tought I would end up loving them sm. I mean.... they gotta be endgame.
This right here.❤
Is this what a genuine platonic relationship looks like?
This is not platonic there is going to be a romantic scene coming up. I am thinking that AXE is going to be jealous of Wendy and Artist relationship.
@@a.k.jatsanjose9637 one year later and your prediction played out. That artist was so annoying; good riddance.
@@yvettem.holland5072 Yes it feels good to be right! But this relationship makes AXE look soft.
Every great man should have a Wendy Rhoades...Beautiful, Flawed, Smart, Driven and Loyal AF...
No. She’s mildly attractive. Not beautiful at all. And she’s not loyal. She’s slept with rocket man and she desperately wants to sleep with Axe. All this while still being married. Chuck may have career aspirations that compromises his marriage but at least he’s loyal to her as far fidelity goes. She’s a little slutty.
@@RatBastard701 They were married on paper but they have separated. Also it was mutually agreed that they have the freedom to see other people. Lastly she's drop dead gorgeous
Madison Lee I don’t know where you see drop dead gorgeous. Drop dead gorgeous is Bobby Axelrod’s secretary (Ilfenesh Hadera) in the first two seasons. Maggie Siff is semi-attractive.
Try to deserve her, that the difficult part. I often see too many man asking too much, they want her pretty, smart, fit, loyal. 😉 Okey! Are you brad pitt? I dont think so. 😘
This relationship is a great partnership without the messiness of marriage. They support on another, they know one another, they above all else are loyal to one another.
lol the "messiness" of marriage? but it would be better if they were married... instead of sharing secrets with one another that could result in them having an affair...
Wendy was a horrible wife but was great at what she did. She’s an interesting character nonetheless
What a great acting moment!
touching
The most interesting relationship in the show by far.
I'm so happy billions has been renewed for season 6
Although it's a show, they show us what a true friendship is like. Wendy and Bobby went through hell and back with one another, yet they always come back to each other stronger than before. I pray that we can all have that one person in our lives that no matter what we say or do, they know us so well and deeply, to understand what and where we're coming from in that moment and does not judge us because they know us on a level that very few get to touch. A true friend. I love Billions❤️
Axe and Wendy not hooking up is the genius of their dynamic on this show. They both think for a higher position
Great scene!
So cuteee
The only true partners on the show
trust & loyalty
This makes me happy - Team Axe and Wendy 🙌
love it
Somethings brewing between them
Something's definitely brewing!!!!!!!!! A battle between Chuck n Axe for Wendy? 🤔🤔🤔
@@ehi8665 lol Chuck chose his career and his Father/family legacy over her the minute he told her he wouldn't go public about their private life only to blind side her on national tv. I think in Chuck's own wierd way that was his revenge for her sleeping around with that Craig guy while they were separated but told their kids they aren't getting a divorce. He was also pissed about how she pushed his buttons to back out of running for Governor and landing on Black Jack Foley's enemies' list to begin with.
@@Sam19509 it's nothing Axe wouldn't do to save his company, tbh.
If chuck and axe are her only choices, then she really has no choice at all and it's really not like she deserves any better. These 3 are all the same and they deserve each other.
I know it may get weird if Wendy and Axe hook up but eventually I NEED THAT TO HAPPEN
EXCELENTE EJEMPLO DE COMO SE CONSERVA PERSONAL PARA LE EMPRESA Y SER AGRADECIDO CON EL MISMO COLABORADOR
I knew this video was coming!!! Lol
Hope they get together! They'll make a great couple ❤!
I miss this show!
Those two will have sex! The chemistry is WAY TOO HIGH to not have sex!
The way he talks about her and thinks of her, made Wendy's brain go ERROR 404!
Love comes im many ways
Hear and Here are the words of a true and unshakeable love, "....So you say whatever you need in that hearing to get you out of this, and I will back you to the end of the earth on it!" That's the actual moment when Wendy realizes that he is hers & she will always belong to him.
Awww💖💖💖👑👑👑
I just screamed “Come on”
Best
Why aren’t they together again?? Remind me. I mean, dude choose her over his wife in season 2 and hasn’t left her side since. He’s more committed to her than chuck
It seems Axe knows he is not relationship material for Wendy. He is better in her life as her boss and partner rather than someone he should lay down with. He knows himself and being with Wendy is not something he needs to do. IMHO.
tbh i'd rather them to be just like life-time work partner than to be romantic partners. It makes the show better
UPDATE 2 years later: still crying
Update, several years later: Still Crying! And, still hoping they get together before the season finale! 🤞
I remember that episode and I also remember her HUSBAND'S response! That's when I knew Wendy and Axe were going to get it on some day! LMAOOOOO! When she asked Chuck when he knew she was his person and he didn't remember, I was like ...buddy, your days are numbered! Heck, I love Axe anyway, but I was READY to drop everything for him myself after that speech he gave Wendy! Axe may screw you a bit, but he is pretty loyal when he knows you are loyal to him. I think, in a way, Chuck WANTED to hurt Wendy for staying at Axe Capital. Chuck, to me, is FAR more devious because he is only loyal to himself.
I agree! Chuck is NOT to be trusted. I will never forget the first episode when He arrived home from work and asked Wendy if she was "happy" with her work situation. The way he sneakily tried to get her to quit AXE CAP by making her feel like he was doing her a favor by bringing up another job opportunity. At that moment, I knew he could not be trusted. If you think about it, Axe is a much better person than Chuck. I mean, Axe is loyal to a fault. Although he hurt Wendy in episode 1 episode 12. Once he realized that she did not betray him, he NEVER let her down again. And he would never do anything to hurt his best friend, Wags. Unlike Chuck, who threw his best friend under the bus in the Juice deal.
@@TheLadybug2009 - Yep! You're absolutely correct! Chuck is do incredibly devious and dubious and he does what he does knowing that it will hurt those he loves most. Axe is loyal.
Best show since the Fresh Prince
Every Don needs his consigliere. Axe is the muscle and I guess Wendy is the brains, in some situations
Funny how Wendy asked Chuck when he realized he needed to marry her despite the fact he already told her before the Ice Juice debacle. And funny how she is being wooed by Axe forgetting the threats he made when Chucked hacked her session notes and when Lara ran off with his kids after Wendy told her she made the decision to come back to Axe Capital. The lawyer Bach also basically let the cat out of the bag in the last episode saying Wendy does not have patient-doctor confidentiality with anyone at Axe Capital including Axe at least that is what they all believe now. And if she loses or gets her license stripped there are no consequences for hooking up with patients now she is no longer serving as a Doctor.
Yeah, the writing took a dip this season and the character inconsistencies are just the tip of it, sadly.
Hope they rap things up in the next season, because i can't see a future for this series.
That's what really irked me when Chuck said that he didn't remember. Like, you just said it seasons ago dude...
@@romanvincentjusay4464 lol he didn't even want to bother answering because he knew if he didn't say what she wanted to hear it would ignite a new fight. There marriage is going down the shitter.
so the next fight between Axe and Chuck would be over Wendy's heart a good old love triangle?
He better deliver.
So much easier to be the son than to be the father, So much easier to be the friend than the husband......
The more that I see Bobby and Wendy (Damian &Maggie) together on Billions, the more and more I am convinced that they were born for each other. Their chemistry is undeniable regardless of the fact that they have children & other adults in their real life! God DOES work in mysterious ways!!!
I Agree 100% Percent. I think it is so sad, and ironic, that their spouses died in the same year (2021) and of the same horrible disease (cancer).
@@TheLadybug2009 I don't think that Maggie Siff's husband is dead. She's been married since 2012.
@@SirLord1262000 no, he died of brain cancer in dec 2021, it was in the New York Times. I will try to find the article fir you
@@SirLord1262000 NYTIMES article written on July 12 2023 Headline: Maggie sniffs in a rare revival of Orpheus Descending
She is almost crying
Well, but beyond the relation between these 2 and how this dialogue explain many things in the show... The message is super power full, the way Axe took it could be a good leadership lesson for a future leader in an org., leader are not gods and should be receptive to a demand when it comes from a loyal focused employee. IMO
Professional or personally THAT is the kind of women a man needs
Wendy about to blow the truce to hell 🤣
Here after 5x10. Who's with me?
The gaffer has more emotional bond and attachment than the hubby. But then again, cuckolding is just one Chuck's other fantasises.
These two can not sleep together. Or maybe they will in like season 8 when chuck is on the brink and this will be the thing to send him overt he edge.
Romance tends to have many moments that build up like a meter where you don't realize what you have till you lose it.
Many guys that share Axe's one sided obsession due to a single interaction don't get far pass the restraining order. 😅
Watch the last episode...You will get it
Like poles dont attract if forced the consequences are more dire. Chuck and Wendy will slither away, but with Axe one of them could end up far worse
A wonderful sign of advanced age in life: when the quality of this kind of show (and the expressed exchange of human emotion) is so much more satisfying entertainment style, than a Captain Marvel big screen extravaganza. Two different universes, if you'll tolerate the pun.
I do wonder wat Wendy saw in Chuck
They should be partner right at the beginning... it takes them 5 seasons to be realized.
Lol Axelrod is a God
Wendy is beautiful
It would be a weird if they got together seeing that Axe and Chuck were enemies. I’m mean after that secret pool meeting I knew Axe and Wendy possibly had a past
Im here after the season 5e10 confession
Que lástima no están en español 🙈🙈😜
Maggie is a kind of woman that you can't resist, so why should it be any different with Bobby?
Why does Bobby Axelrod get to speak in a voice, that it sounds like he permanently lost his voice?
dude can they just knock boots already?!?!
This is the most romantic speech I've ever heard from anyone ever.
its not romantic
You obviously don't know women. The acting in this scene alone keeps me watching this show even it is a far cry from the first season. Wendy didn't say much but if you couldn't pick up on her facial expressions when he said she was fun to watch then and now, when he said he would back her till the ends of the earth, then yeah you wouldn't think it was romantic. Great acting from both. And yeah, one of the most powerful romantic scenes I've ever seen on TV.
@@samy8897 like he doesn't love her? She's the most important thing in the world to him. All "romantic" means... is they've not physically acted on that love, yet.
