7	!! Dirty Little Secrets
8	In a case of "privacy vs. security", [=TAC=] is tasked with defending a security company that refuses to hand over files that may provide a lead on a recent terrorist attack; [=TAC=] is not entirely comfortable with their position, but it's one of the cases Nunnelly wants their help with [[Recap/BullS1E21HowToDodgeABullet in exchange for her earlier assistance]].
9	----
10	* DragonWithAnAgenda: Harry, the right-hand man of the security company's head, sold information on influential clients to cover his debts, and is thus responsible for the bombing.
11	* TheGamblingAddict: Harry from the security company, who got into massive debt betting on things like the exact time airplanes would land.
12	* HourglassPlot: The case begins with Nunnelly supporting absolute confidentiality, and Bull believing (and telling her) that a temporary breach is worth preventing horrible things like the bombing. It ends with Bull having to restore Nunnelly's belief in her original viewpoint, after Cable helps him realize how innocent people could get hurt by privacy violations.
13	* LoopholeAbuse: As Bull is not actually a lawyer, he is able to ignore Attorney-Client privilege and call the FBI on Harry.
14	** HollywoodLaw: However, both state and federal courts have specifically ruled in the past that attorney-client privilege applies to jury consultants.
15	* MakeItLookLikeAnAccident: Or rather, make it look like a terrorist attack when it's really a hit on some of the security company's influential clients, after buying data on where they'll be from Harry.
