Episode 13 sees Bull (Michael Weatherly) being approached by an army friend Colonel Victor (Lou Diamond Phillips) who is also a therapist about defending a soldier who is pleading guilty to killing his best friend who is also a soldier. We saw the military man grapple with PTSD after serving in multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan which causes him to have panic attacks, blackouts, and more. Turns out he was trying to defend his friend who was also secretly suffering from PTSD and who ended up killing himself to escape it all. 

Fans who tuned in love that the writers brought to light this very real issue and were also delighted to see Lou Diamond Phillips play Bull's army friend. This is what they had to say about the episode.

Probably never thought how much PTSD is hidden by veterans.". A tweet read, "The talk about PTSD was right on point.
