Dave Stacy is a practicing Christian whose mind conjures up images of women in robes and men at war whenever he thinks of the Muslim religion. He has agreed to go to Dearborn, MI, the most concentrated population of Muslim Americans in the country, to see if he can learn more about a culture he is convinced is founded on violence. He will spend 30 days living in a Muslim home, follow all the food and clothing customs, daily study the Qur'an, and grow a beard. Dave will get a hands on education of what the Muslim culture is all about and the stereotypes that American Muslims face every day.

Episode Quotes
 
Morgan Spurlock: (beginning of the episode)When you hear Muslim what do you picture? What does a Muslim look like?
David Stacy: I picture a woman with a sheet or having the face covered, and I think of men with an AK-47 at war with someone.
 
David Stacy: (end of the episode)The first week or two I would really dread when we'd do anything at the Mosque, I felt like I was betraying my faith - betraying my family. No one can really experience what it's like to be discriminated against until you do. I'm an Anglo-American and I have never felt like a minority any where I've went and the whole time I was up there I was kind of the odd man out, it was a pretty unsettling feeling. I came back just realizing that they're just some of the most awesome people, very compassionate and devoted, productive. I think we could use several million more of them to tell you the truth. I will defend these people and defend their faith because you can't stereotype one and a half billion people, or even 500 people for the actions of 5.
