Spoilers for 'Bull' Season 6 Episode 2 'Espionage'

If defending a client from leaking classified government documents was the main plotline of episode 2 of 'Bull' Season 6, the other important plot was Taylor Rentzel (Mackenzie Meehan) trying to work on a relationship with her ex-husband, Eric (Matt Dellapina). It was revealed in the first episode that she was still seeing the man she divorced and in the first few minutes of 'Espionage', they seem to be holding pretty steady.

However, that relationship was short-lived as she finally realized the impact it was having on their son, Mauricio (Ollie Robinson). Fans on Twitter shared their two cents on the relationship angle and Jason Bull's PTSD. "What's with the women of TAC hooking up with past husbands? #Bull" read one of the tweets. This statement possibly comes after Marissa Morgan (Geneva Carr) had a storyline in Season 5 with her ex-husband. "Taylor and her ex-husband are still sleeping together behind their sons back. #Bull" read another.

In addition to the trouble she has in the episode, Taylor also gets snapped at by Bull (Michael Weatherly) while working the case. "Poor Taylor Rentzel #MacKenzieMeehan I know Dr. Jason Bull @M_Weatherly is trying her best but don't criticize for her not trying #Bull@BullCBS," a fan opined. While Taylor had her share of tweets, there was also an appreciation that the PTSD angle was not dismissed casually. "So good! Bull's anxiety is causing me anxiety! I'm glad the writers aren't sweeping his trauma under the rug. And btw, what's with motive not being admissible in an espionage trial? I feel like I would have been a good juror for the defense on that one! #Bull," a tweet read.

Some also hoped Bull and his wife could get some counseling. "Hope in one of these episodes Dr #Bull and Izzy get some counseling," one of the fans remarked. "@BullCBS Poor #Bull!! @M_Weatherly is rocking tonight's episode once again!! Superb!!" the final verdict read.
