They are brought up to the top and are told they have to face a death challenge. He is voted in along with Jane. When told he has to retrieve an item from the water, he starts pepping himself up, as he is afraid of deep sea diving. After some time, he works with Jen to find the item. Jen finds the item, which is a bottle, but gets stuck in a couple of rocks. Ryan comes by and takes the bottle, leaving Jen to die. He brings it up and is deemed the winner of the trial.

Episode 3 - Phantoms of the Lost Ship
In Phantoms of the Lost Ship, Ryan can't believe what he just did in the trial and promises to help the group from now on. After the dice roll, the group sees a floating pirate ship and boards. They then split up and Ryan goes with Monique and Meg, where they are all chained. He notices a table tennis table, and wonders if that has to do with anything. Monique notes that she wants out of the chains with Ryan agreeing. While Meg is trying to get to the bottom of a vase she find, Ryan doesn't think he will be much help due to his arms being chained. He notes later that he doesn't want to know what these two do in their free time. After a few unfortunate events, Meg throws a key to Ryan's feet before being teleported out. It is out of his reach, so he suggests whoever gets freed next to give the key to the other person. He then realizes one person will be on their own. He is freed by Monique and goes to the table tennis table, picking up a paddle. He is challenged to a game of table tennis to free his friends, but fails miserably. They are freed anyways due to be a major annoyance and meet up with the rest of the group. They are told they need to sacrifice another for an item they need and must vote to send two people into a trial. He gets another vote, which ticks him off, but is safe from the trial. After Zane and Meg are revealed to be going to the trial, Ryan says they didn't deserve it.

Episode 4 - Fata Morgana
In Fata Morgana, while talking who will come out alive, Ryan questions how Zane knew this was a death trap when everyone else thought it was a party. When Zane brings back another piece, Ryan wonders what they are supposed to do with it. The dice is rolled and Sirens come from upstairs, attacking Janelle first. Ryan asks if anyone else hears the screaming and pounding outside and refers it to the sound of giving birth. As they notice the Sirens, the group runs back to safety. Monique and Dominic lock Ryan out, leaving him to become a Siren.

Episode 5 - Chimera
In Chimera, Ryan, Jannelle, and Topher try figure out what is going on, with Ryan deducing they were turned into Sirens, as he was the last to turn into one. When Monique and Dominic come up and see everyone is normal again, Ryan says they didn't do much help as they locked them up here. Ryan, Janelle, and Topher try to figure out what happened to the others, with Monique saying they sent them into the trial. He later notes that Zane mentioned two girls, Zinnia and Tabitha. Ryan rolls the dice and gets an eleven. They hear a horn and go outside to see a giant island has appeared. Ryan eagerly gets off the ship and starts to explore the island with Janelle and Zane. As they explore, the group eventually finds a cabin with a bunch of skulls inside. While searching inside the cabin, Ryan gets hypnotized and tells Janelle and Zane to follow him, leading to all three of them getting capture in a tree. Ryan is with Dominic, Janelle, Topher, and Monique to vote Zane to die due to him being untrustworthy. They later decide to put Peyton up with him, and both are put into the trial.

Episode 6 - Rotten Roses
In Rotten Roses, the group is discussing who they think will come back. Dominic hopes Zane dies, which Ryan tells him to shut up about his love life. Dominic then states that Zane has killed everybody so far, which Ryan objects saying he killed Jen. When presented another test, Ryan states they are about to get fucked again. They are told that they are given two options and must pick the right one to get a rose. Ryan choices were either let his friends freeze or fight a skeleton, with him saying last time skeletons were involved, he got hypnotized. Ryan chooses to fight the skeleton, loses, and his rose dies. He is teleported away from the group as they do their tests. After being brought back, Monique tells the group they must sacrifice another person to be let out of the Bermuda Triangle. Votes are casted in, the results being Ryan and Topher going into a trial. They get to pick helpers to try and save them, Ryan chooses Monique while Topher chooses Zane. The challenge is to decipher a morse code message and Monique is getting frustrated. Ryan tells her to listen to it carefully again, slow and steady. Monique has it, but Zane beats her to it. Ryan is then impaled by the plants he and Topher were trapped in, screaming in pain as he dies. The group takes some of his flesh, saying it will be needed.
