Recap
Zamil now slips out before dawn to pray with Arham, and tells his worried family that he is a Muslim and can go to the mosque when he likes. His mother privately asks Zaryab to make sure he does not become an extremist. Abu Bakar tells Khushbakht he involved the police so that Hamna could go home safely, and adds a line about teenagers who build a statue of love and then worship it.
In Boston the couple fight from the moment they land, and Zamil tells Zaryab to go to hell. At breakfast he wants religion off the table. She says religion should make him kinder; he answers that he is practising and she is not. While Zaryab glows after her Harvard orientation, Zamil complains that she made him miss the congregation.
Back home, Abu Bakar hears from a friend in Boston that the two have been fighting nonstop, and observes that their biggest problem is having no real problems. The episode ends with someone arriving at the family home with three words: "I left home."
