Netflix premiered its latest reality show, Cheat: Unfinished Business, on April 20, 2025. The second episode, If You Want to Leave, The Door's Right There, featured the second Reckoning. All the ex-couples were invited to the Reckoning room while show host Amanda and relationship expert Paul were also present.

One by one, each of the couples discussed their first face-to-face conversation. After that, the expert, Paul, guided them on what had happened between them and how they could overcome it.

One of the couples, Liam and Olivia, faced a tough situation. It happened after Liam issued an ultimatum to her. Recalling that conversation, show expert, Paul C. Brunson, told Liam:

"Something happened yesterday in your face-to-face that I think is one of the most dangerous things that can happen in a relationship. You issued an ultimatum. So I wanna give you an opportunity, okay? If you want to, you can walk out right now. The door is right here."

Cheat: Unfinished Business: Second Reckoning gets tense after relationship expert Paul calls out Liam for issuing an ultimatum to Olivia

Cheat: Unfinished Business episode 2 featured the ex-couples going for a second Reckoning. All the ex-couples shared what happened during their first face-to-face conversation. When it was Liam and Olivia's turn, she recalled their conversation and said:

"I came away from that conversation feeling like I've done something wrong. I was in shock with what was coming out of your mouth. You deflected the whole situation onto me."

Liam responded that Olivia raised another "accusation," again. He was referring to how Olivia showed him a picture of a girl on the phone and asked if he had been unfaithful to her. After Liam refused, Olivia told him what she had heard and how Liam had texted that girl after being intimate with her.

At the Reckoning Room, Liam said it took them ten years to move forward after something like that had happened last time. Another female cast member, Jazz, jumped into the conversation, taking Olivia's side, and asked how Liam thought of himself as a "victim."

"Like she (Olivia) literally showed him messages, and he completely flipped it and put it on her and was like, If you're gonna bring this up, I'm gonna leave. Isn't that the whole point we're here?" asked Jazz.

Cheat: Unfinished Business star Liam responded that no one has been in that relationship for "ten years plus," hence they haven't seen the "circles" that he and Olivia have been going in.

Relationship expert Paul intervened and mentioned Liam's "ultimatum." He issued that to Olivia during their face-to-face conversation. Paul referred to it as "the most dangerous thing" that can happen in a relationship. He asked Liam if he wanted to "walk out" from there; he could.
