The second episode follows Osama bin Laden on his triumphant return to Saudi Arabia following the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan. However, the invasion of Kuwait by Saddam Hussein creates a rift between bin Laden and his home country, as the Saudi royal family seek military aid from the US. Outraged at what he sees as an unacceptable American presence in Muslim holy lands, he reinvents himself as an agricultural producer while declaring a Jihad against the Americans occupying the Arab peninsula.
