From your Cloud 9 family.

This is where I come to pray.

My hearing's good.

After Glenn announces an issue with Sayid's immigration status, Mateo, who is undocumented, becomes very nervous. Glenn feels bad that he didn't know Sayid is a Syrian refugee. He's then asked about the conditions in Syria, his opinion of the movie "Syriana" and is given a round of applause. Mateo complains to Cheyenne about the special treatment being afforded Sayid and that he should receive it since he's undocumented. Sayid passes by just as Mateo mentions his status causing Cheyenne to wonder if he overheard and will tell Glenn or Dina. Cheyenne asks Sayid if he had any harrowing experiences in Syria as an excuse to test his hearing. Finding Sayid hears well, she indicates to Mateo he might have overheard his status.

S04E08-Mateo Sayid president

Which president?

Talking to Sayid about to his immigration status, Mateo mistakenly mentions he's undocumented. Backtracking, he says he's in the country legally and was sworn in by the president which Sayid finds hard to believe. After Mateo spreads rumors that Sayid is a liar, Sayid confronts him and Mateo explains it's due to Sayid hearing about his undocumented status. Sayid doesn't care until Mateo accidentally suggests Sayid might be deported if he hides Mateo's secret. Reading that Sayid intends to tell Glenn, Mateo starts following him. Later in Glenn's Office, Glenn tells Mateo that Sayid reported his undocumented status. ("Managers' Conference")

No wonder we have so few refugees.

In the Break Room, Mateo complains about the difficulties of applying for asylum in the US, while Sayid points out applying to be a refugee is even harder. After Jonah and Mateo organize a rally against Rodrigo Duterte which is attended by a news reporter, Sayid tells Mateo that he'd never be seen on TV critisizing his country's government as he'd be tortured and killed if deported. ("Cloud 9 Academy") Sayid is in the Break Room as Glenn announces the steps challenge and later when competing with the rest of the staff, tells Amy that Marcus gave him six energy drinks. He views the vandalism on the store front, seemingly made by the Bel-Ridge store, and says "let's end those sons of bitches!" Sayid and Marcus turn on a customer trying to return a blender when they discover he bought it at Bel-Ridge. When Amy admits to the vandalism, Sayid tells her she's sick. ("Steps Challenge")

("Salary") After Amy uses the monitors in the Surveillance Office to spy on the staff in the Break Room, she tries to fix their criticisms of her by acting differently. Confused about her odd behaviour, Sayid won't stop replying to Amy's "thank yous." As the staff discuss Amy's behaviour in the Break Room, Sayid realizes Jonah isn't comfortable with them making fun of her. After Amy is caught spying, Sayid wonders who says nice things about people behind their backs. He's in the group of staff Amy apologizes to when Cheyenne sends Mateo a text about Amy. When Mateo smashes his phone so Amy can't see the text, Sayid says Mateo should have got a case for it. ("Easter")

Let's show pollution what we think about it.

Cheyenne starts a "Green Team" meeting while Jonah sits on the sidelines. Asking for suggestions, Sandra, Marcus and Sayid want to tackle various issues which have nothing to do with the environment and post on social media.
