Are Ryder and Daisy redeemable?

Ryder finally did the right thing and helped Jana and Lauren escape. Compared to Sarah and Daisy, he's been downright accommodating to his hostages and has clearly felt some guilt about what he was doing. Daisy has seemed much more cruel and vindictive and has done worse stuff (poisoning Lauren, drugging Daniel, killing someone when she was a child, etc), but it looked like Ryder almost convinced her today that what they were doing was wrong and a mistake. Sarah is the criminal mastermind here -- she's clearly used and intimidated Ryder and Daisy who are pretty young and couldn't have had a very good childhood. So, is it possible Ryder and Daisy could be redeemed once Sarah's reign of terror is stopped? I certainly think Ryder can be -- he was too weak to fight Sarah and Daisy, but he seems to know right from wrong and it's possible he really does care about Kevin. Daisy on the other hand seems take after her mother Sheila more. She may be too manipulative and vicious to be saved. I'd think that she might be smart enough to do an aboutface if she realizes the plot is falling apart, though.

If Ryder can stay away from Daisy he could change but Daisy is as mad as her mother Sheila was and I do not think can change.

I hqad forgotten that he had been talking to Abby. Maybe he will come back and try to hook up with her. I do believe that he wants to be a part of Kevin and Jana's life, but Kevin would not allow it at this point. Maybe it will be Ryder's return that helps Jana. I feel sorry for her with not feeling anything.

Ryder seems to have a chance at being redeemed. Daisy, however, always seemed to enjoy tormenting people too much, so, too me, it would take a pretty unbelievable turnaround for her to be redeemable.

Yesterday was really exciting. Ryder will probably redeem himself with everyone. He and Daisy ran off yesterday, but of course it won't be the end of things. Odds are Daisy only did as she did as she knew she had to get out of there, and if she did it Ryders way, she'd have him fooled into thinking she was on his side. But I bet once the Sara thing comes out...Daisy will be back to try to save her. Ryder will probably be the one that kills one or both of them, go into therapy and a little bit of jail and then they will have him be a good person. Him and Abby will probably hook up.

Daisy has a lot farther to go than Ryder, that is for sure, but when Sarah asked Daisy to kill Phyllis, you could see that she wasn't totally all bad either...
