In this wildcard bonus episode, Katie asks Julia to partake in an experiment of interpersonal closeness; 36 questions to fall in love (although they only manage 15). In an attempt to fill in some blanks, they condense their life stories and discuss gratitude, values, virtues and more. Whilst they did grow closer, Julia has declined Katie’s invite to silently stare into her eyes for 4 minutes… maybe next time.
