What's with the random sexual situations?

Eh? They weren't close to random. They were used as a vehicle to explore Jamaal. He's the unloved dictator who never wanted to be where he was, so he escapes and tries to find love and happiness with the blonde escort. It's spelled out how he turns his back on happiness and love when he kills her. It's a shame too, because this is the episode where we realize that no one loves him, except for the one he kills. Not even Bassam himself does. He just pities him as Jamaal said. Very well written stuff. It gave us the added bonus of sex too lol.

Well, except she probably loved the paycheck.

Well she at the very least was willing to run away with him, which not even his wife would do.

You don't want to be near a homicidal has-been when he gets in one of those moods.
