You might think a romance from the 1700s will be stiff and boring. But this episode is so raunchy, so TMI, we’re going to need an explicit label! 
King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette of France had an arranged marriage and famously, uh, experienced trouble in the bedroom. Which makes us wonder: can you fall in love with anyone if you set your heart on it? And if you’re really not into your spouse, could you still sleep with them to produce an heir? 
While Marie and Louis’ romance does end in tragedy, Marie Antoinette loved to have fun more than anyone. So we’ll have fun until we reach that gruesome ending, trying to decipher whether Louis and Marie ever did fall for each other after all.
