In "Initiation" Ryan goes on a sales call with Dwight despite his better instict. At the beginning of the episode Dwight is shown trying to fool Ryan with a riddle but Ryan answers all of them correctly. Ryan also appears slightly worried about going on a sales call with Dwight. Ryan is very angry when Dwight takes him to his beet farm and tries to initiate him. We find out that Ryan was in a frat in college. Ryan goes along with most of what Dwight asks him to do until Dwight tells him to wrestle his cousin, Mose, and get in a coffin. Ryan then puts his foot down. He then finds out that Dwight forgot about the sales call. They rush to the sale and while we do not see it we know it does not go well. When leaving the building Ryan says "They did not like me" and Dwight responds "They did not but they didnt have to say it to your face". Ryan then throws eggs at the sales office exciting Dwight. Back at the office we see that Kelly is worried about Ryan because he has been gone for so long. Ryan and Dwight then go to a bar where Ryan chugs a drink with ease. Dwight starts to chant "Temp, Temp, Temp" and then stops and chants "Ryan, Ryan, Ryan" symbolizing a friendship being born. However this friendship seems to be short lived and we never see Dwight and Ryan interact as friends again in the series. Except for jim's reign as co-manager when they both conspired together against Jim.

In the episode "[[The Promotion]]", Ryan tells Pam that she could either have one-hundred dollars now or five-thousand dollars later as a wedding gift. After great resistance, Pam takes the five-thousand dollars that Ryan claims he will have in one year's time.

Ryan shows more immoral traits in "[[Garage Sale]]", when he sells jars of his mother's homemade Pesto sauce, and tells the camera that his mother has never wanted to sell her sauce, as she intended it to just be for family. Ryan, however, tricked her into making about a hundred bottles worth (by lying about needing them for a "pesto-party" he was throwing for all his friends), and is now selling the jars for his own profits, as well as plastering pictures of Phyllis and Oscar on the jars without their permission (since Phyllis had that "mom look" he wanted, and he used Oscar's picture on his Mother's homemade jars of Salsa). Dwight then cons Ryan into giving him a box worth of the Pesto by trading him Stanley's old photo album (by commenting that only people like James Franco would want something like that sitting on their bookshelf). However, Ryan is also in the group that helps Michael think of a good way to propose to Holly. When Michael does propose to Holly, he has some employees jokingly ask Holly to marry them. He states that Ryan was the only one he was concerned about.

In "[[Training Day]]", Ryan thinks that new manager Deangelo Vickers having a barber come to the office to shave him is "badass" and "hardcore". In "[[Michael's Last Dundies]]", he is shown to be hurt that Danny Cordray broke his streak of winning the "Hottest in the Office" award, although he tries to hide it. Ryan's contribution to the office workers' version of "Seaoson of Love" is that Michael helped him get off drugs.

In "[[Search Committee]]", Ryan reveals to the camera that he, like Oscar and Pam, also believes Angela's boyfriend Robert (the State Senator) is gay, because he "liked" Ryan's Facebook photos at 3:00 AM. Later, when Stanley harshly berates Jim for not taking the search for a new manager seriously and informs him that the new boss will probably be his last, Ryan comments in mock seriousness that he believes Stanley will live forever. After Stanley leaves the kitchen, Ryan gives Jim the advice to take a day off from the whole "Jim schtick" and to try caring about something for once. He even addresses him as "James", before closing the door to his office/closet. During a staff debate over who should be hired for the manager position, Ryan states he wants an outsider. While Jim thinks he is referring to the applicants outside of the office, Ryan says he meant an "outsider" as someone who is on the margins of society, and suggests a homeless person. When Pam challenges him to say he truly wants a homeless person as his boss, he asks who her ideal candidate would be, snidely suggesting Rachel Ray or "the ladies of The View". In a talking-head interview, Ryan laments that he got away with everything while Michael was his boss and it was not good for him. He says he wants guidance and leadership, but does not want the new manager to boss him around. He states he wants the new hire to lead him, but only when he's in the mood "to be led". Ryan also tells Gabe to "take care" when Gabe announces to the office that he's been reassigned to Sabre headquarters in Florida.
