The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On: Scotty and Aria’s journey before the finale

The relationship and trial marriage phase in The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On

Scotty and Aria began their journey on The Ultimatum with unresolved issues stemming from their busy lives and lack of shared time. Scotty expressed his commitment by issuing one of the season’s ultimatums, hoping to push Aria toward marriage. However, Aria hesitated because she shared that she grew up in a household where she lacked an example of a healthy marriage.

During the dating phase, both Scotty and Aria formed unexpected connections. Scotty was drawn to Zaina, whose values aligned with his own, and described her as “epitomizing the term wife material.”

Meanwhile, Aria found herself confused between her physical attraction to J.R. and her emotional bond with Caleb. She ultimately chose Caleb for their trial marriage due to his ability to make her feel secure.

Aria expressed gratitude for the bond they formed, as she told Caleb:

“I’ve felt understood and seen… and it’s allowed me to trust myself.”

On the other hand, Scotty’s trial marriage with Zaina revealed his longing for a true partnership, though communication issues surfaced, leading to clashes and unresolved tensions.


The changeover and return to their original relationship in The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On

When Scotty and Aria reunited for the changeover, they carried lessons from their trial marriages. Scotty appreciated the quality time he shared with Zaina, while Aria valued Caleb’s calming presence and humor. However, hearing Aria praise Caleb triggered feelings of jealousy in Scotty, leading him to question if she was the right partner for him.

Aria’s reluctance to show physical affection and Scotty’s sensitivity to rejection remained unresolved, creating friction as Ultimatum Day loomed. Despite these challenges, both acknowledged the personal development they achieved through the experiment.


What to expect from Ultimatum Day?

Episodes 9 and 10 of The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On will focus on the couples’ final decisions. As the trailer suggests, Aria describes the Ultimatum Day as “one of the biggest days of her life,” while Scotty admits uncertainty, saying:

“I have no idea what the future holds for us.”

Other couples also face critical decisions in The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On. Zaina and J.R. continue to navigate trust issues stemming from J.R.’s connection with Sandy during their trial marriage. Zaina hopes for a future with J.R., expressing:

“I love J.R. so much. I just need him to see the bigger picture of how we can leave here together.”

However, J.R.’s hesitations about commitment can influence their outcome. Meanwhile, Sandy and Nick grapple with their age gap and trust issues, with Sandy admitting that she feels more grounded with J.R. than with Nick.

Mariah and Caleb, the youngest couple in the experiment, have worked to strengthen their bond after a rocky trial marriage. Caleb’s connection with Aria during the trial has helped him become more comfortable with the idea of marriage, but whether Mariah’s ultimatum will lead to a proposal remains uncertain.


The conclusion of Scotty and Aria’s story, along with the other couples’ outcomes, will be revealed in episodes 9 and 10 of The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On, premiering on December 18 at 3 am ET.
