First up, Melvin asks his wife, "What are your best memories, thus far?"
Catherine answered, "One of my favorite memories is all the time we used to stand in the driveway at night, trying to say goodnight to each other and not wanting to." She also said that becoming Melvin's wife was "definitely a favorite memory."

Next up, things got a bit more intense when Melvin asked, "What's the most difficult lesson you've learned from being with me?"
Catherine: "You can think that you can trust people, and you can't. The people who rejected me when we got together. Pretty much everybody stopped talking at my house, for a long time."
