Barry awaits punishment for a failed coup and Jamal agonizes over whether or not to execute him.
It's four months after the failed coup, and Barry is still behind bar awaiting his fate. While some believe executing him will eliminate him as a problem forever, other believe executing him will only make him a martyr and strengthen the inurgency, those who are demanding his release. The inurgency is also due to Jamal's regime being as repressive as ever. Some in the inurgency are not sure that their is a battle that can be won, with Fauzi and Samira on different sides of how best to achieve the Abbudin of which they dream. While the rest of the family is back in the States, Molly remain at the US embassy working on diplomatic option to get Barry released. Through it all, Jamal wants to show the world Abbudin is open for business, he fostering greater ties with the Chinese. He also wants to groom Ahmed to follow in his footsteps, Ahmed who may have thoughts of his own for what he wants his and Nusrat's life to be.
