When apprehended, he meets his attorney, Sandy Cohen. When Dawn, Ryan's mother, hears of Ryan's arrest, she kicks him out of the house. He is eventually taken in by Sandy, with a few objections from Sandy's wife, Kirsten Cohen. After meeting Ryan's mom and realizing she is unable to take care of him, she welcomes him to stay, and Ryan slowly progressed into living with the family. Even though he is now a known figure in the Newport society, he is still an outsider to many. He becomes a brother to Sandy and Kirsten's misfit son Seth, and Sandy and Kirsten consider him as a second son. Ryan and Marissa Cooper, a popular but somewhat troubled teenage girl, develops an attraction for one another that initially has its difficulties because of her relationship with Luke Ward and the differences in their lives and backgrounds.

Ryan and Marissa dance at Cotillion. In "The Debut" (episode 1.04)

During the middle of the season, Ryan's relationship with Marissa is interrupted by Oliver Trask, a mentally deranged person who Marissa met in Therapy, and who developed an unhealthy obsession with her. Oliver begins hanging around with Marissa and Ryan, even inviting them to his Palm Springs vacation home. Ryan became very suspicious of Oliver's behaviour, his background, and his feelings for Marissa. This brings significant trust issues between him and Marissa to the fore, which eventually result in them breaking up. When Marissa realizes Oliver harbours an unhealthy obsession for her, she seeks Ryan's help and Oliver, after threatening to commit suicide were she to leave him, is committed to a mental hospital. Afterwards she tries to get back together with him but Ryan cannot forget how easily someone succeeded in coming between them, and refused to resume their relationship, although they remain friends until getting back together later in the season. At the same time, an old girlfriend from Chino called Theresa moves to Newport to be with him, which results in them having a short relationship. Theresa leaves Newport after her violent fiancé Eddie arrives in Newport and fights with Ryan. Ryan and Marissa got back together shortly after, but this was further complicated when Theresa arrived back in Newport towards the end of the season after suffering domestic abuse from Eddie. Theresa revealed to Marissa that she was pregnant, and did not know whether the father was Ryan or Eddie. In the season finale it looked like Theresa was going to have an abortion, but then decided to keep it and decided to go back to Chino to be with her family. Ryan felt compelled to go back with her to help her bring up the child, leaving Marissa and everything behind. Image File history File links OC-104. ... Image File history File links OC-104. ...

Despite their issues throughout the season, it is always clear that Ryan and Marissa are still attracted to each other (Marissa openly admitting it to Ryan, and he openly admitting it to her). Even Theresa agrees that they belong together (as does her fiancé, Eddie).


Season 2

Throughout this season, Marissa and Ryan (although dating others) are constantly being pulled closer together (partly because of Seth's idea of a reunion of the 'Fab Four'). Marissa admits to Summer that Ryan was the only one she ever loved and misses him everyday (with Ryan, of course, overhearing the whole conversation), and when he talks about how he and Marissa first met it is clear that he still is deeply in love with her. When things seem to be getting back to normal between the two, Trey comes back into Ryan's life. At first, all is well, but while Ryan is on a trip in Florida, Trey tries to rape Marissa while on drugs. Marissa does not tell anyone for a while, but eventually tells Summer, who lets Seth know. Ryan finds out about the attempted rape from Seth, prompting a confrontation between Ryan and Trey. An angry Ryan drives to Trey's apartment and a fight breaks out between the two brothers. Although Ryan gains the upper hand, Trey throws Ryan off of him onto a glass table and pins Ryan to the floor, while strangling him. Trey then grabs a telephone to bash Ryan in the head when Marissa walks in, pleading with Trey to release Ryan. Trey refuses and Marissa shoots him in the back with a gun Trey has in his apartment in order to save Ryan. It is left unclear whether or not Trey survives until the third season.

In the aftermath of Season 2, Trey has survived the gunshot, but remains in a coma. After finally waking up, Julie pays Trey to blame the incident on Ryan so Marissa won't be in trouble, but Marissa talks Trey into telling the truth after Ryan is arrested. Marissa is expelled from Harbor High and attends public school, making new friends that lead to trouble. Ryan becomes jealous of Marissa's relationship with Johnny, fueling their on and off again status. After Johnny dies in front of Marissa, she begins a disastrous relationship with Volchok. Ryan and Volchok develop a hateful relationship with each other, leading to a horrible conclusion. In the season finale, the Fab Four finally graduate, heading towards their prospective futures, including Ryan headed to UC Berkley. Elsewhere, Volchok needs to get out of town and tries to blackmail Ryan into giving him money for this purpose, with the threat that he would tell the police about Ryan's involvement in a robbery that he had forced Ryan to help out with earlier in the season. Marissa gives Ryan the pearls her mother bought her as a graduation present to pawn for Volchok's escape money. After getting the money, Volchok continues to try to blackmail Ryan, but wants to talk to Marissa. In the midst of his threats, Marissa pulls up in Ryan's car which clearly upsets Volchok. While Ryan drives Marissa to the airport, an angry and drunk Volchok tries crashing into Ryan's car to get him to pull over, so they can finish their rivalry on the side of the road. He sideswipes Ryan's car and knocks it over a barrier, the car rolling down an embankment and coming to a stop on a road below. Ryan sustains no serious injuries in the accident, but Marissa suffers a head injury and dies in Ryan's arms on the road.

Seth warns Volchok in advance and Ryan returns to the Cohens, but Ryan's friendship with Seth is damaged. After Sandy acts as Volchok's defense attorney, Ryan encounters Volchok in a hotel and decides to spare his life, forcing him to live with his guilt. Later, Ryan helps Taylor with getting a divorce from her French husband by kissing her, proving she found a new love. Unknown to him at the time, Taylor develops a crush on him for helping her.


Around this time, Ryan suffers from insomnia related to the incident involving Volchok. Taylor intervenes, acting as a sleep therapist to seduce him and flirting around, but fails to cure Ryan’s insomnia. When Ryan tells her he doesn't know how he feels about her, she tells him to kiss her to see if he feels anything. When they kiss, she takes advantage, then stops herself. After that, Ryan starts having fantasies about her. He tries to step it up a notch by asking her to hang out but not a real date. However, Ryan finds it to be too awkward. Later, Taylor pays a homosexual guy, Roger, to pretend to like her. However, Ryan discovers this, and he and Taylor make up in a game of Seven Minutes In Heaven, where they kiss.
