  • Ryback escaping through the ceiling and immediately dispatching guards was nominated.
  • Ryback covering the captain’s body and attempting a quiet acting beat was nominated.

  • Ryback organizing an instant counterattack with the makeshift crew was nominated.
  • Ryback building a bomb from a grenade, condom, wire, oil, recorder, and knapsack was nominated.

  • The final Ryback–Strannix knife fight and their mutual-recognition exchange were nominated.
  • The joking deck finale, especially the infirmary and breakfast lines, was nominated.
