Another bad episode of "Let's pretend characters just met". This episode is Chunk's first solo case and the problem is because of that they have to restructure Chunk's character. These are always frustrating episodes where characters who get along are fighting for no real reason. Characters fight for no real reason often enough. TV characters always act out of logic but sometimes they act out of character and that's double annoying. Chunk is a person who has been learning and studying everyone but now he rejects every bit of their advice. Not because he knows something they don't. Not because he trusts someone they don't. Not even because of a hunch. Just... .because. This sort of thing ruins episodes not because they're bad but because they're inconsistent. This often happens with the thematic impressions of a show. Bull started off being about a guy who picks jurys. Now it's a courtroom drama about a guy whose smarter than everyone and occassionally features jurys. It's not a bad show it's just not what I signed up for when I watched the first three episodes.
Chunk: I know you're angry [that I didn't take your advice/instruction] Bull: You don't know anything, that's the part I can't get you to understand.
I mean dang even for the situation and even for the character of Bull that's pretty harsh. Of course in the end Chunk turns out to be right because there's no point in having him defy everyone and be wrong. It's not that kind of show.
