The four ladies are enjoying yet another peaceful morning at Um Saeed's house until an unexpected and unwanted visitor shows up- Um Saeed's young grandson Abood.
It's summer time and the ladies decide to break their mundane routine and enroll in a women-only summer camp that focuses on reliving the old days, complete with all the traditional activities that are nowadays lost.
The ladies decide to pay a visit to Kashoona, the infamous medium who communicates with spirits of the dead. When they return home, they realize they're being haunted.
On the eve of Eid, Um Khammas decides to take the girls on a shopping spree, after receiving the promise of a long-awaited check from a wedding she performed at years before. Meanwhile, the neighborhood kids go from house to house to collect their Eid gifts.
On a record hot day, the ladies get into an argument about the importance of preserving water or, in the case of Um Khammas, wasting it. An overload of the city's circuits soon means that the ladies find themselves without electricity....or running water.
When Um Khammas' son announces he is returning home after a lengthy stay in the United States trying to get a college degree, Um Khammas worries her son will be embarrassed by her singing career. She decides to try her luck at a series of new careers which all end up being a big waste of time and money.
Tension fills the air when Um Saeed's friend Atheejah drops by for coffee and the two women both stake a claim to be experts at Arabic poetry. Um Allawi proposes an official televised poetry duel between the two women and their respective all-women teams.
Um Khammas receives a nasty shock when she takes a look at herself in the mirror for the first time in 20 years and finds she's aged a bit more than she thought. She elects to go to a plastic surgery clinic to have the problem fixed once and for all, but ends up learning an important lesson about the beauty within.
Um Allawi returns from a book fair with a book of Arabian folktales (including Aladdin). She reads the stories to her friends, with each taking on a unexpected new role in the folktales.
Um Khammas becomes convinced a popular male rival is using magical beads to hypnotize his audiences into thinking he's a better singer she is. She convinces the Freej ladies to break into his house under false pretenses to steal the beads.
When Um Allawi reveals that her childhood dream was to be on TV, the ladies trek to the local television station and find jobs working as TV presenters.
When a shady doctor tells Um Khammas that she has but ten days to live, she decides to become religious. She eventually goes overboard with her supposedly pious new attitude towards life. She also tries to make amends with her many enemies, with awkward results.
When Um Allawi wins a free trip to London, the Freej ladies decide to accompany her. They experience quite a bit of culture shock due to their first experience with international airports, wax museums and the London Tube.
Um Khammas is horrified with her elderly, blind and gnomish mother (Um Um Khammas) announces her engagement to a wealthy, "younger" man. Jealous that her mother will remarry before her, she demands an enormous dowry within 24 hours or she'll refuse to give her blessing to the wedding.
