"Well that thing's a pretty deadly myth." Ronnie to Valerie

Ronnie Kaplan is one of the main characters in Hydra (2009). He is a criminal who was kidnapped to an uninhabited island,

Plot[]

Ronnie was initially in the cabin with three other criminals, who all ate food containing GPS while confused. Ronnie and other criminals were then placed on an uninhabited island where the Hydra existed. They would be hunted down by four billionaires as prey. Ronnie followed Nolan's instructions from beginning to end and helped create traps to deal with the billionaire's pursuit. The next day, Wiliams, one of the billionaires, injured his foot in a trap. Ronnie and other companions went to check the situation and found that Wiliams was still alive. Wiliams shot Bob Crick and gave Ronnie, Nolan and Gwen 30 seconds to escape. At this time, Valerie, an archaeologist who has been living on the island for two months, suddenly ran out and told them to run away. And then the Hydra appeared in front of them, and Ronnie escaped with the others.

After escaping to a safe place, Ronnie and the others began to explain their situation to Valerie, and Valerie told them about the Hydra. After understanding what kind of creature the Hydra was, Ronnie thought they had no chance of survival, because both the billionaires and the Hydra will hunt them. Nolan then made a new plan, Ronnie and Valerie went together to find the supplies that Valerie had hidden before. After Ronnie saw the supplies Valerie dug out, he thought the supplies were not helpful, which made Valerie a little annoyed. However, Nolan later brought back Wiliams' broken walkie-talkie and repaired it using Valerie's supplies. During the call with Captain Sweet, Ronnie and the other two criminals learned that they all had GPS in their bodies. They all hoped that Valerie, the only one who did not have a GPS installed, could assist them, but Valerie asked Nolan to kill the Hydra, and Nolan agreed, so Ronnie had to follow along to implement the plan.

Then Ronnie, Nolan and Gwen followed the information Valerie said and entered a cave to look for the "Sword of Hercules". They finally arrived at the innermost part of the cave. When Ronnie saw the scene inside the cave, he thought it was a man-made temple. Before they could find the "Sword of Hercules", Captain Sweet appeared behind them and pointed a gun at them. Since the original plan was for Valerie to restrain Sweet outside the cave, Sweet ran into the cave anyway, so Ronnie asked Nolan in a low voice where Valerie was. However, Sweet was quite dissatisfied with this and shot Ronnie directly in the abdomen. then Ronnie fell in pain after being shot. Gwen knelt down next to Ronnie in panic and tried to help him stop the bleeding, but still could not prevent Ronnie from dying.
