- November 23, 2022
As a talk show host and former security director on The Jerry Springer Show, Steve Wilkos is no stranger to dealing with intense and emotional situations. On the 38th episode of the show's 16th season, titled "If You Fail This Test, I Can't Forgive You," Wilkos meets a young woman who's struggling to forgive her boyfriend for his past mistakes.
The episode begins with Wilkos introducing the couple, explaining that the woman, named Alex, has been with her boyfriend, Mike, for two and a half years. However, Alex admits that their relationship has been rocky due to Mike's past infidelities. Despite Mike's apologies and promises to change, Alex is having a hard time trusting him again.
Wilkos then brings out a lie detector expert, who administers a test to Mike. The test includes questions about his sexual history, as well as whether or not he's cheated on Alex since they've been together. As the results come in, tensions rise between the couple as they wait to find out if Mike has been truthful.
Throughout the episode, Wilkos hears from both Alex and Mike about their troubled past and their hopes for the future. While Alex is understandably hurt and guarded, Mike is adamant that he's changed and that he wants to make things work with Alex. As the lie detector test results are revealed, viewers will see whether or not Mike has truly turned over a new leaf.
Of course, this being The Steve Wilkos Show, things don't always go according to plan. While Wilkos strives to remain impartial and level-headed, emotions run high as Alex struggles to come to terms with Mike's past mistakes. Similarly, Mike becomes understandably defensive as Alex continues to question his honesty. Between the couple's arguments and Wilkos' tough but fair questioning, there's never a dull moment in this episode.
Ultimately, viewers will have to tune in to see whether or not Alex can forgive Mike, and whether or not Mike's supposed transformation is enough to earn her trust. The Steve Wilkos Show has never been afraid to tackle challenging topics head-on, and "If You Fail This Test, I Can't Forgive You" is no exception.
