“— or immediate and everlasting damnation. (Catechism, 1022)”

What would a person have to do to get that reward? Not that I think that will be my end (I hope!)...

For Catholics, it would mean to die in the state of mortal sin. For non-Catholicss, I expect it would be to die in the a state of unrepentance for sins committed during life. Even those who are not raised in any faith tradition have a 'sense' of right and wrong.
