The reunion kicks off with unresolved tensions among the group at an all-time high. As the Shahs look back on their trip to Israel and their efforts to bring some peace to the Middle East, they waste no time reopening old wounds. As they take each other to task, Asa accuses Mike of being racially insensitive both abroad and at home. And when Asa confronts Mercedes about calling her child a “bastard,” years of conflict finally reach the breaking point.
