“My husband stops dead in his tracks to stare at this woman,” Nicole tells the cameras in the clip. “It makes me feel like I’m not Muslim enough for him.”

Nicole then tells Mahmoud how that moment affected her, telling him, “If you want an Arab woman, you can go back to fucking Egypt.”

Mahmoud took it to heart though and replied, “Okay, I will. I’m done,” before walking away with his hands up.

Earlier in Sunday’s episode, Nicole and Mahmoud hit it off after he arrived at the airport, tired from his flight from Egypt to America. Nicole personally realized that Mahmoud was “tired” and told him, “You should have slept on the plane.”

“I know you’re just tired, but I was definitely hoping you’d be a lot more excited—happier to see me,” she said, adding, “But I told you, it irritates me that you didn’t sleep on the plane, actually.”

Mahmoud also had issues with a few things in Nicole’s home – a nude painting she made in art school and a doll of hers that she used for her fashion career. “She lived here before him,” Nicole joked to the cameras about the artwork.
