Remember the college admissions scandal with the Hollywood elite? The writers of “Bull” used it as fodder for this week’s episode, “Quid Pro Quo,” only the alleged bribe occurred 10 years ago.

Dr. Samir Shadid, a respected New York heart surgeon, is accused of bribing his way into college. He’s arrested just moments after performing a life-saving surgery. The hospital subsequently puts him on probation, and Dr. Shadid hires Dr. Bull and the team for help with the bribery charges. (And he knows to hire them because, as luck would have it, the good doctor sat as a juror in one of their prior cases. What are the odds?)
