Ep 16. Free Fall

In the Bull season 1 episode 16 titled "Free Fall", the team tackles a case involving a CEO of a failing airline company, who is accused of murdering a pilot in a plane crash that resulted in the death of all passengers on board. Bull represents the CEO, while the prosecution is led by a formidable opponent, Diana Lindsay.

The case is complicated by the fact that the CEO, Terrence O'Connell, was on the plane at the time of the crash, and is wracked with guilt and grief over the loss of his employees and customers. As the trial gets underway, Bull and his team must navigate a series of obstacles, including a hostile jury, witness tampering, and a surprising turn of events.

Bull's strategy involves painting O'Connell as a victim, rather than a perpetrator. He argues that the plane crash was the result of faulty equipment and negligence on the part of the airline industry as a whole, and that O'Connell was powerless to prevent it. With the help of his team and some creative demonstrations, Bull attempts to convince the jury that O'Connell should not be held responsible for the crash.

Meanwhile, tensions begin to mount between Bull and his ex-wife, who is also part of the legal team representing O'Connell. Their personal issues threaten to undermine the case, and Bull must find a way to resolve their differences before it's too late.

As the trial reaches its climax, the fate of O'Connell and the airline industry hang in the balance. Bull must use all his legal expertise and psychological insights to sway the jury in his favor. In a dramatic final scene, the verdict is delivered and the shocking truth behind the crash is finally revealed.

Overall, "Free Fall" is a tense and gripping episode of Bull that highlights the complex dynamics of the legal system and the human emotions that can cloud it. The strong performances from the cast, including Michael Weatherly as Bull, make it a must-watch for fans of legal dramas.
