Initially Catherine doubts Caleb's sincerity in his attempts to win her back, due to his half-hearted attempts at completing the Love Dare, but Caleb continues with encouragement from his father and his close friend Michael (Ken Bevel

In the meantime, at the hospital where she works, Catherine begins flirting with Dr. Gavin Keller (Perry Revell), who doesn't know she's married, as she stopped wearing her wedding ring

 of viewing internet pornography. Nevertheless, Catherine, who is led by some colleagues to think that Caleb did all these things with an ulterior motive in mind, is still intent on divorce. When she later learns that the equipment needed for her mother's medical care has been paid for in full, she arranges a lunch date with Dr. Keller, thinking he was the benefactor. Caleb discovers Dr. Keller's relationship with Catherine and immediately informs him that he won't let him have Catherine without a fight. Catherine's friends misinterpret the confrontation as a threat, but they do not tell her since the Holts' marriage doesn't concern them. Dr. Keller (who is actually married) breaks off his relationship with Catherine.

Caleb later finds Catherine at home sick, and decides to take care of her. At this point she asks Caleb why he has changed his behavior, and he mentions "The Love Dare." Caleb then fully apologizes to Catherine for his past selfishness.

Days later, Catherine learns that of the $24,300 cost of her mother's medical equipment, Dr. Keller gave only $300 and Caleb gave $24,000, exhausting his boat savings. At this point she becomes convinced that his desire to change was sincere. Ashamed at her inability to believe Caleb's change in behavior, Catherine digs out her ring, dresses herself up nicely and puts on make-up and rushes to her husband's fire station. There she embraces her husband with all the respect and admiration he craved before.

Caleb's parents are overjoyed to know that their son's marriage has been saved and Caleb expresses his thanks to his dad for the love dare. At that point, Caleb's dad explains that his mother was the one who did the love dare on him and not the other way around. Immediately after hearing this, Caleb rushes home and apologizes to his mother for criticizing her all those years. The couple then renews their wedding vows in an outdoor ceremony, this time as a covenant with God.

According to the film's novelization, Catherine's mother participates in a special Wheel of Fortune
