In episode 2, Amir Baghdadchi describes an attempt to smuggle Italian bologna in to the United States and a tense encounter with TSA agents. It's on a return trip to London that Baghdadchi is asked to show his passport which “is an anxious moment for everyone,” he says. “You watch the agent look at you, look at your picture, look at you, look at your picture, and just praying ‘please god, let me look like myself.'” It’s through this experience, and others like it, that Baghdadchi learns to perfect the art of international travel.
