Trad wishes to take part in and win the cosplay competition that denies pets unless they are service animals. To get the service card, he turns to the lowest-rated psychiatrist in the county. Meanwhile, Adel’s shock at learning that his tormenter Nawaf is returning to the county leads to an important client getting traumatized.
Fatima and others devise a plan to get Adel psychotherapy from the worst psychiatrist, so that he can’t recover and his condition only gets worse, making him unfit to remain in the company.
Hoshikino, the important prospect for the Center for Reducing the National Burden, ends up going on a journey to find his spiritual roots and that which he had run away from in his youth, to follow contentment in materialistic things.
At the temple he ran away from, he dips into the pond and gains enlightenment, following which, he returns and offers to go ahead with the center only if they agree to have Adel remain at his post as well.
Before all this, Trad gains his service dog card and practices his psychotherapy on Adel, to varying degrees of success and failure. Masameer County season 2 episode 1 concludes with the Kozycon cosplay competition he so desperately wanted to win getting nabbed by Hoshikino, and Adel keeping his job.

Seven men, one woman, one dog, and one infant board a claustrophobic elevator that croaks with the exceeding weight limit and gets jammed. When the maintenance and other helping staff fail to do anything, the passengers are advised to repent their sins and ask God for forgiveness.
One by one, each of the passengers starts opening up about the terrible sins they have committed/are committing/were going to commit.
The charitable doctor is a dupe, Khalaf stole from the orphans, Muneer covered up his real estate’s bloody history, Saad and Trad have been perving on Sheikha, Adel is a womanizer, the father with the baby wishes to kill him to spite his ex, and the woman turns out to a dude posing as Um Salem for his tea business.
However, as the elevator finally stops, they all forget about the sins they just revealed and ditch all their mortal fears, hopping on to the party that’s going on on the floor. Meanwhile, a man who boarded the elevator before them, intending to reach the floor where he was supposed to propose to his lover, gets his hope in life and all that’s holy destroyed by what just transpired.
Episode 2 of Masameer County season 2 concludes with the man committing suicide.
Episode 3: Clearance
The next episode of Masameer County season 2 introduces Mazin, who loves books and owns the ‘Sacred Books’ bookstore that his late father left for him. One morning, a roughed-up man enters his store frantically as soon as Mazin lifts up the shutter. He searches for and fails to find the book called Women and Sex, by Nawal Nawaadi.
Before Mazin can answer his questions regarding the book’s whereabouts, a giant brute cuts the electricity of the store and enters inside with his henchman.
After asking about the book and getting the roughed-up man to swear by Quran that he’s telling the truth, the brute kills the timid man in the most gut-wrenching manner, bashing away at his skull with his giant cable cutter.
He then gives Mazin an ultimatum — to retrieve the book from whoever took it, and return it to him before time runs out. Failing to do so would result in his death as well, of course.
Mazin’s search for the man who took the book gets him arrested on baseless suspicions by the police, gets him stuck inside a cell with a pedophile, and finally, his assistant Jubran is killed amidst a misunderstanding.
By the end of Masameer County season 2 episode 3, Mazin finally gets the book, learns that it has the coordinates for treasure, lures the brute and his henchman to a remote well, and kills them without ever having to suffer a minor scratch.
He does so through the knowledge gained from the books, and finally, he sets fire to the chest full of money, since he’d rather treasure the books more than the actual jackpot.
Episode 4: Outer Space Toilet
The fourth episode of Masameer County season 2 sees the county preparing for its first-ever rocket launch, and the astronaut heading the mission to the moon reminisces of the old days. He remembers how he lost his mother at a really young age, and how his father grieved for her and held her dear and near his heart after she was gone.
His father would never budge from his adamant position of never selling her ancestral property while working hard to provide for his son’s education.
The present-day astronaut recalls all the hard work that went into his dreams and aspirations, and now, after his dad has also passed away, he is finally on the precipice of greatness.
Meanwhile, Bandar gets a bad case of the runs after drinking the camel-milk coffee that his servant made for him, which puts his meeting with Floyd Juneweather on hold, upsetting the American and compromising the deal.
That’s until Bandar actually finds himself boarding the shuttle to use the toilet inside of it, after having failed to find any available public toilet and kicking the astronaut off his path.
He ends up becoming the first man from Masameer county to go on the moon, thereby impressing Juneweather and closing the deal, as well as crapping all over the astronaut’s dreams.
Episode 5: Wholesome Content
In Masameer County season 2 episode 5, after Trad and company post a vulgar TikTok, Adel tasks them with performing a play that spreads awareness regarding the evil of such social media platforms.
However, he keeps sabotaging the play with his abrupt and erratic demands for more improvisation.
To the shock, disgust, and annoyance of Saltooh, the demands cross the threshold and he finally reaches his boiling point, following which he springs up and belts out a socially resonant and progressive speech for the audience largely comprised of orphan kids that rouses them up and garners great applause.
Episode 6: The Limits of Honor
