Although I find her intolerance and eye rolling frustrating, I do think it has been lovely to see the way she has learned to accept and return affection from others.

Well said, Garfie.
I think Ann has benefited from this programme, the exposure to different characters etc. For example, I love her taking positive interest in Courtney's costumes
Very sweet of her thinking of Shane's comfort wearing his costumes.
And as you say, the hugging. She seems to overcome her objection to human contact.
A lot of Ann's attitudes could be due to her lonely life and limited exposure to other lifestyles. With patience and intellectually rigorous debate I'd imagine she might be able to rethink some of her views. Some, not all of course. Her interpretation of religious teaching is probably not up for a debate, lol.
Shane J is very patient and intelligent and he would be up to that task, but I doubt those two will have much time together after the show to talk.
