Yeah maybe he became a dentist expecting to practice here.  Then the current administration said no one (even refugees) could come from Syria.  Maybe he thinks the combo of marrying an American and applying from Lebanon will open doors that are otherwise closed.  He had some huge Chiclet teeth for a dentist.

He probably has a BDS, a Bachelor of Dental Surgery, which is the common dental degree in many Middle Eastern countries. It is equivalent to a US Dental degree. He can practice there with it but to practice in the US he'd need to get licensed. That means exams, and additional training. At the dental school I worked at, foreign trained dentists who were on the faculty could obtain their American DMD in two years. My boss was a professor, a periodontist (trained in Greece for his DDS, and had a US credit for perio, plus a doctoral degree from Harvard), and could teach at the dental school, and practice in the faculty practice on site at the school, but had to do his two year DMD program to work in a private practice outside the school. No way Omar would be able to get off the plane and get a job as a dentist in the US.

I agree.  There was an older dude who owned the mini mart on the corner from my old apartment.  I believe he was from Iraq and had been a medical doctor there.  When he came to the US just a few years before I met him, at his age he couldn't handle the rigorous requirements to obtain a license to practice in the US so he bought the mini mart instead.  Omar is young so he'd likely have no problem, but I can see where for the older immigrants it could be a tough row to hoe.  I'd have probably said fuck it and bought a mini mart, too.

Nope. All you have to do is say:

I testify “La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammad rasoolu Allah.”

“There is no true god (deity) but God (Allah), and Muhammad is the Messenger (Prophet) of God".

Its nice if a person studies and learns about Islam first but it is by no means required.

Thank you so very much for clarifying this for me.  I sincerely apologize for my lack of knowledge, but it's why I depend on my cohorts on this board to get real information and clarity!

And all that additional training, and the exams? Cost money. Lots of money. I can see why someone would opt for a mini mart, honestly.

When I worked at a temp agency placing medical secretaries and tech people, we'd often get foreign trained doctors looking for temp work as phlebotomists.

Why isn't he pursuing local women? Where are his family members? His friends? His support system? Everyone else had their family members on this episode, I think. I really hope he isn't all alone because I fear this relationship will end badly.

His "friend" was a client at the salon..... to me that spoke more than words. Unless all of his family members and real friends new this is a completely trainwreck and wanted nothing to do with it.

There is no way the TLC cameras are going to Syria. Would TLC really be that stupid??? I highly doubt it happens but in the teensy chance it does, I wonder how many quit after pulling the short straw on that deal.  I wonder if they were first brought on to be part of 90 days the other way. 

So Avery has the dentist right? And the older detective lady gets a greaseball who supposedly works a seasonal job at the tv station "getting audience members"

Why why why do these brainless idiots fall for this shit? If a 26 yr old guy asks 40 something year old you to marry him within one month of “meeting” online, he’s a scammer and you have the intellect of a rock! If a beautiful young woman needs you to send her money month after month, she’s a scammer and you are a soon to be bankruptcy-filing moron!  If the only way you can be married is by importing the emoji-sending love of your life on a K-1 visa, you can be pretty much assured it will not end well.  And this ditz got scammed once before??   I just don’t get it.  Darcy and her sister with their eyelashes and duck lips and pointy nails just creep me the hell out altogether.

Asking for a friend obviously.

I'll admit that my knowledge on edible undergarments is from studying them in sex shops as opposed to personal use, but there are two types.  The fruity and chocolate ones are like fruit roll up string bikini bottoms that tie on the sides to accommodate different body types.  Then you have the ones that are like those candy necklaces with circular candy on a stretchy thread that you bite off.  Caesar also had some of those.

Forgive me for my potential ignorance, but I thought it took time to convert to Islam.  I thought there were classes/lessons, etc.  So, a month seems very short to me (or maybe I totally misunderstood how long Avila has been a Muslim).  I do think there's an element of attention seeking to it.  Hopefully her parents are not buying her ticket and paying for her wedding.  If this is something she really wants, she (and I'll put Nicole in here as well) needs to figure out how to pay for it.  

It's actually really easy to do the actual conversion.  You just need to say two phrases in Arabic, and take a cleansing shower.  The time comes in from all the study on the religion you do before that, because you need to mean the phrases.  

And Islam is like all other religions.  There are different types.  Many dress totally "Western", some drink, many eat pork...  Simply to be Islamic doesn't mean you have to wear the clothing.  It is a choice within the religion.

Probably not very intelligent. Plus the toxins in the nail cleaning materials can really affect your health. You're probably right. He just seems like a nice guy, well organized and everything so I was trying to cut him some slack. Reality is that he's showing himself to be not particularly bright - sending that girl $800 a month and then that money for a plane ticket to Mexico, which I have my doubts she will buy. We'll see in one of the next episodes.

Happens often that migrants/expats have to adjust their expectations and may need to change careers when moving abroad. How many times have we heard of Sikh doctors or engineers or IT specialists ending up driving taxi cabs or trucks once they reach the US? In the same vein, many Americans and other westerners who may be qualified as engineers, doctors and other professionals end up becoming English teachers in Asia, jobs they are overqualified for. This is especially true for younger people due to lack of experience. Therefore I think that Omar's young age and his lack of experience are rather going to be liabilities as opposed to opening the way for a career in his field in the US. Chances are, he won't make it. And that's understandable. US citizens should have priority in getting jobs.

Avery's family are taken aback by her decision to convert; Nicole's would probably all die of collective heart failure. They are so horrified by the prospect of Nicole converting that they whisper the word "Muslim" as people might say "she's seeing a psychiatrist" or "he has AIDS" in other times.  "If you get married in Morocco, will it be a....Muslim wedding?" in hushed tones.

And Avery may be stupid and naive, but I do give her credit for trying to find a spiritual path. She's young and maybe she'll try on a lot of religions and philosophies, as young people are wont to do. I just hope she comes out of this unscathed. Its extreme. 

Indeed,  converting to Islam would be a deal breaker and unfathomable to both Nicole personally and her family. She'd have to grow up and change her lifestyle and that's not something she's willing to do. Azan seems like a very casual Muslim so it's unlikely he would insist upon conversion but I also think he's just playing her and she will eventually wake up from her trance and accept this. 

I actually knew someone who converted to Islam like Avery did. Difference is she's a bit older than Avery; at the time she converted she must have been around 26 or 27. However, she has the same sort of demeanor and naivety as her. She stopped being friends and unfriended people like me on Facebook for no apparent reason, but probably because in her religion it may be considered taboo to be friends with unrelated males especially non-Muslims like me. That's what I presume because otherwise it doesn't make any sense. In any case I haven't spoken to that girl in years and since she unfriended me I decided to take it one step further and block her so there's no chance of her contacting me again. Like Avery, this girl seems to be interpreting Islam about as strictly as possible, more strictly than many people born into that culture. That kind of attitude scares me a bit, to be honest. Avery for example is under no obligation to cover her hair inside the house. Even in many strict Muslim countries, this is not required. I hope everything goes well for her but as her parents I'd be extremely worried. I wouldn't have much of a concern if she were like Deaven and marrying someone from South Korea but converting to Islam and then getting into a relationship with someone from Syria after being an "all-American" girl all your life? What's wrong with being an all-American girl? Something is both amiss and disturbing about her story and I don't know where to put my finger on it. We'll have to wait and see as the show progresses.

I like that you're brave enough to Google the things I'm too scared to Google.  

So, is this like Tootsie roll material?  Or like Helen grace chocolate Easter egg material?  

I was just going by what I believe I saw on the packages Cesar was putting in his suitcase. The one on the top said "Chocolate G-String." But you got me wondering about the ingredients so I went to good old Amazon (they have everything!) and found a chocolate thong. The reviews were scathing, some people had actually taken pictures of the package contents and it looked like a plastic garbage bag cut into a strip with plastic ties. The only resemblance to chocolate was the color. People brave enough to taste them said they were terrible. Some of the comments were hilarious, like how many Weight Watchers points in a pair.

I have no self control, I just find other things to do.  Like I'm currently catsitting for my dad and instead of just taking care of him and leaving, I've been hanging out to mess with my dad's Netflix algorithm.  He likes gritty crime dramas and foreign historical stuff, so I watch a lot of Disney and bad British reality shows.  I'm currently watching My Hotter Half where couples get ranked by strangers to determine who's hotter and the loser has a style makeover and a chance to be re-judged to see if they are now the hottest.

Exactly--and I wish I'd thought of this.  We in the US have been brainwashed to equate Muslim with terrorism, and that just plain isn't true.  My goodness, haven't we had enough examples of young men from so-called "normal" religious schools here (Catholic, Episcopal, for god's sake) who are espousing violent, terroristic ideas, and in some cases acting on them?

The stories in the news about Isis wives desperate to return home are what we read about *because they are news.*  Women who have converted to Islam and are living happy lives in Muslim countries aren't news, and I hope Avery will be one of them.

Actually, there is no such obligation. It depends on the specific culture and country and even the family themselves. The idea behind wearing a head covering or hijab is so when a Muslim woman goes outside, she becomes undesirable to other men. You are right about the "over the top" observance of Islam by new followers. It's often quite similar among Christian converts.

Avery is certainly mature beyond her years when it comes to her observance of religion and her determination. However, she's very naive about what awaits her in Syria even if she feels she can adapt to a much more unpredictable and most certainly less comfortable life.

Yes I know there is no obligation to cover indoors. The point I was making is that Avery is exaggerated in her observance of these strictures, to the point of going over the top. I know the reasons behind the head covering. I understand that in some countries observance is more conservative and even government mandated. I'm not sure what you are explaining to me here. I understand that people convert to religions other than Islam.

All those tramp stamps come home to roost. 

When I was a divorce lawyer many moons ago I had a client whose family was a never-ending source of revenue for the criminal law department in my firm. Her husband had served her with divorce papers, and in them he'd said that he thought she might be cheating because of a tattoo she'd recently had done. I asked her what it was and she pulled up her (already short) skirt to show me.

It was a tattoo on her inner thigh of an erect penis pointing towards her vajayjay, with a little arrow saying 'insert here'. Classy. I said "that'll look nice when you're 80 years old in a nursing home, won't it ..."
