United States of Al

Marine veteran Riley is happily reunited with his friend Awalmir -- who was the interpreter with his unit -- after a long struggle to get him a visa to travel to the United States from Afghanistan.

Al uses his skills as a translator to try and repair the tense relationship between Riley and his estranged wife, Vanessa; Lizzie is heartbroken when she is at a party and loses her late fiance's dog tags.

Al becomes flustered when he goes to the DMV to take his driver's license test and the female instructor is wearing shorts, something he is unaccustomed to seeing.

Al is exasperated by Riley's parenting style with Hazel, so he attempts to teach Hazel to be more deferential to her elders; Riley contemplates taking over the family business.

Riley, Art and Vanessa attempt to help Al feel better when he becomes homesick for his family and traditions.

Art asks Riley and Al to make speeches at a fundraiser for interpreters that are waiting for visas; Riley comes face to face with Vanessa's new boyfriend.
