That's how all second chances work.

If you've used a second chance item on an action and have lost the challenge (i.e. you get a second roll), then the next attempt will require twice the amount of second chance items (so 2 for the 2nd time, 4 for the 3rd, etc.).

This stops doubling once you either succeed in the challenge or accept the loss and let the failure trigger.
