Storyline

Jason Bull is a psychiatrist who works as a trial consultant. He is working on a murder involving the son of a wealthy man. And at the beginning it's obvious that father and son don't get along. Bull polygraphs the boy and when it proves he didn't kill the girl he's accused of killing, it shows he's hiding something. Bull thinks the answer might lie with the boy's mother and her friends whose boat the murder was committed.
