Bull was fighting to clear his name. He was accused of jury tampering. This accusation could cost him his life because he can go to jail for it in a federal prison and it would also ruin his good name. Without Bull or his name on the door, there is no TAC. There are no jobs and everyone would be fired. But Bull has an amazing lawyer. He also has an amazing team. The two working together are doing their best to keep Bull out of prison and for this one they had to be above board. Taylor couldn’t hack Randall Hughes. The man who made the accusation and Danny couldn’t follow him. They couldn’t afford to add witness tampering to the charges. They had to investigate him legally. They also had to find out who did try to bribe Hughes.

Hughes was paid. The money was traced back to Isobel in one of the accounts she had before she was married and Isobel couldn’t explain the payment. She just knows she didn’t authorize it. She stopped using that account after she sold her business and she checked with the bank. It wasn’t a security breach on their end. The breach had to come from the couple. Isobel handed over her cell phone as well as her tablets to Taylor. Taylor ran a search on everything to see if it was hacked. As she was doing so, she got to talking to Danny. Danny hated that she couldn’t follow Hughes. She suspected he lied about the bribery charge because he was paid off by the Smokestack CEO. The CEO would have had to pay a hundred and forty-five million dollars in the lawsuit he lost.

But the bribery charge automatically forced a retrial. Danny followed Arnold Clayton and she couldn’t find a link between him and Hughes. Taylor also found signs that Isobel’s iPad was hacked. She just couldn’t prove who was behind it and or what the hacker chose to do with the information. The hacker could easily have done the job to get Isobel’s Netflix password. Taylor couldn’t prove anything and she was still looking into when the FBI came. The FBI collected all of Isobel’s devices. They were going try her as a co-conspirator. They were just looking for evidence to prove it and this was concerning. Bull’s trial wasn’t going well. The jury believed in his guilt. They would most likely agree to send to prison and Isobel couldn’t go to prison too.

They have a daughter. Their daughter Astrid was still a toddler. If they both go to prison, they have to decide who will raise their child and so they needed a victory. They didn’t have much of a case proving the couple’s innocence. Both Taylor and Danny decided to try something radical. They sent an email to the Smokestack CEO from allegedly Hughes demanding more money and then they waited at the meet up. The guy never showed. His lawyer arrived and then the FBI came. The FBI arrested both Danny and Taylor. They were interrogated and what could they say. It looked bad. They knows it looks bad and they still tried to defend themselves. They hadn’t told Bull about it before they did it and so the only other person in the know was Marissa.

The entrapment plan failed. The CEO wasn’t pressing charges and so Danny and Taylor didn’t have to worry about that but they thought the guy must be innocent and Marissa corrected them. She re-read their email to him. She said that something about the email could have alerted him that it was false and so she suspects Hughes hasn’t been paid yet. Or that he wasn’t paid in money. Taylor went digging again and she found out that Hughes’s son received a kidney transplant. He was on the donor list. He was all way the down at the bottom and so there’s no way he could have received a kidney without someone pulling the strings. Taylor looked into it. She found out that Hughes’s son had his kidney transplant where Clayton’s wife was a board member.

The CEO of Smokestack did in fact bribed Hughes. He bribed him with his son’s life and that’s why Hughes was so convincing on the stand. He was bribed to lie. Bull’s team found evidence of this and so they went to the Assistant US Attorney. They convinced him to question Hughes again with what they knew and Hughes later cracked. He confessed he was bribed to lie about Bull. He also said he never dealt directly with the Smokestack CEO or his wife. No, the person who bribed him was the Smokestack lawyer. Her name is Carrol. She and Bull have worked together plenty of times and she has lost several times, but she couldn’t afford to lose this one because her firm was thinking of pushing her out the door and so she couldn’t afford to lose such a big case or so much money. And so she bribed the juror.

Carol is now facing charges. She wasn’t apologetic in the slightest about the fact she almost sent both Bull and his wife to prison. Or that Hughes faces perjury charges. Carol only cares about herself.

Bull’s team meanwhile celebrated by finally getting a goodnight’s rest and Marissa considered the job offer she received.

The End!
