Remember what’s happened in the show: Carol was first traumatized by loss…then abandoned…then “fell in love” with Zosia.

At the best of times a person would believe that time spent means intimacy gained…even in the context of the collective Pluribus. It’s one of the oldest flaws in human nature: we believe effort expended equals value.

I’m not sure what question she could have asked or how she could have known that Pluribus has a “static” emotional state…especially given what she was going through and that she was only interacting with Zosia.

Maybe it just goes to show how manipulative they really are. They give someone a person based solely on looks and force her to mimic the memories of a lost loved one, only to abandon her and later return to 'simulate' a relationship. I can see how that would completely destroy someone's mental state.
