In "A Grave Mistake", Hard forces Easy, Medium, and Intense to go on an adventure to St. Difficulties Cliff due to everyone else being dead or leaving. Hard was oblivious to Medium throwing up from food poisoning and Easy going missing. Hard and his team loses the challenge but he is safe with 1 vote, along with Intense.

In "Don't Think I'm Sus When You Vented!", Hard acts as the detective for the challenge and finds out that Challenging killed Easy. He goes to call a meeting but Challenging prevents him from doing so and Hard is killed. His team wins the challenge.

In "Quit The Water Works!", Hard, Easy, and Medium beg JToH not to start the challenge since Hard cannot swim. Hard is then dropped in the water and drowns to death, with Medium failing to save him.

In "Expect The Unexpected", Hard and Medium are discussing how they're at the final 7 and how JD's going by so fast. Medium then tries to flirt with Hard, but Hard rejects her yet again and leaves, leaving Medium devastated. When TooHard is introduced, Medium asks if he's Hard's cousin, leaving the TooHard and Hard in confusion. Hard goes to greet a shy Effortless to the team when she is assigned to the team. Later, Hard walks over to Difficult and asks what's wrong. Difficult talks about how TCCC sucks and nobody does anything. Hard thinks their team will turn for the better since they have a strong competitor now. This doesn't help Difficult at all, and it annoys him and tells Hard to leave. In the challenge, Hard wins both rounds he is in and brags that it was easy. The team wins after and TCCC goes to celebrate.

In "Sobbing Over", Hard appears out of nowhere when TCCC is having a discussion and Effortless gets startled by him. Hard joins the conversation and Difficult tells them what they should talk about. Hard brags about how they won the last challenge because of Easy. Difficult also joins in, until JToH interrupts them and announces the challenge. In the challenge, Medium approaches Hard, who isn't amused to see her. Medium proposes to him about going out with her, how she loves him and wants him to change his mind. The message hits Hard and he gets infuriated, he yells at Medium that he's never going to date her no matter what. He tells her to stop trying to change his mind and just get over it. A shocked and scared Medium worriedly asks if they're still friends and Hard tells her that of course they are. But tells her that she can't keep asking him to go out every time, because he's always going to say no. Hard then leaves, saying goodbye to Medium. Later, Easy notices Hard and the two have a short conversation. Hard approaches Difficult later in the challenge and finishes 9th. Their team wins again and they go to celebrate again.

In "This Is Where I Draw The Line", Hard tells Nil that he's worried Easy and Difficult are hanging out a bit too much, but Nil doesn't suspect that they're in love. Hard lists some events, such as the events of Running To The End! and A Grave Mistake, where Difficult was nervous when asked why he picked Easy over Medium in the team picking. Nil still doesn't suspect and thinks they're just friends. In the challenge, Hard is unable to help Nil due to his broken arm. Later, Hard suggests that Effortless should draw again but Nil says her previous drawing sucked. Hard tells Nil that none of them can draw the picture, so it has to be Effortless and Nil reluctantly agrees. Effortless happily says she's an artist, and Hard cheers her on. Unfortunately the team loses, but Hard is safe with 0 votes and votes for TooHard.

In "This Competition Is on Fire!", Easy, Hard, and Difficult are standing around, with Difficult getting angry and asking where JToH is. In the challenge, Hard calls over to Difficult, asking if he wants to throw bowling balls to get the other team out. Difficult accepts and Extreme gets hit with a bowling ball by Hard, eliminating her first. Easy asks Hard if she can throw a ball, which he allows her to. However Easy gets her teammate out. This is the same for Effortless, then her and Hard remain on the team. Hard ends up getting hit with a bowling ball and falls into the lava, but his team still wins.

Later, Hard tells Easy how there are houses and a lake at the top of the cliff and the two admire in shock. Later, Hard and Difficult are talking about Challenging. When the two talk about what they will do if they win JD, Hard says he'll run away to try to find a new object show. Hard then has to go bungee jump and does a solid dive. He is safe from elimination with an 8/10.

In "An Excellent Performance", Hard walks to Effortless and asks what she's doing, then JToH comes up with a challenge idea based off of what Effortless was doing. Hard is speechless when Difficult and Easy do their performances. Hard does an ollie in the challenge, but fails and gets a 5/10 which puts him up for elimination. He is safe with 2 votes however.

In "Theory of Six", Extreme is sitting down and Hard walks over and asks if she's okay, who Extreme says she's better now. After Extreme gets a bad score from JToH in the challenge, Hard says he can't take JToH's criticism anymore and says he needs to vent. Difficult reminds him of the challenge however, and Hard goes to share his theory. Hard's "theory" is calling JToH a normie, who he gets furious at and gives him a 0/10. After Easy shares her theory, Difficult and Hard think her theory is the best one. Nil wins the challenge however, leaving Hard up for elimination. Hard is safe with 1 vote and is sad when Difficult is eliminated. After Difficult's injury, Hard goes over to ask if he's okay but gets creeped out by Difficult's eyes. After Difficult tells his story, Hard gives him an extra pair of sunglasses and Difficult thanks him. Difficult then goes to the Difficulty Complex due to being eliminated.

In "Let's Get Things Back on Track", Hard is talking to Effortless about a past event when she was dead. Effortless is surprised by what happened and wants to know more about the show prior to her debut. In the challenge, Hard assists Effortless by helping her with the challenge. After Easy punches Nil, Hard sees Easy flying across the sky, scaring him. Later, Hard is bored and then has an idea where he throws bowling balls at contestants to knock them off the track. One almost hits Nil and Nil decides to pick a fight with Hard. Nil ends up winning the fight by throwing Hard off the track, thus putting him up for elimination. At elimination, Terrifying votes for Hard. He questions why and Terrifying brings up when he made fun of her and her boyfriend, still holding a grudge against it. Remorseless votes for Hard based on her "evidence". Catastrophic votes Hard for the same reason Terrifying did. Unreal also votes Hard, annoying him. Difficult is last, with Hard and Effortless tied 4-4. Hard tells Difficult not to vote him since they're best friends. Difficult makes his decision and votes out Effortless instead. Hard feels bad for her but Difficult says she'll still have one sister to play with in the Difficulty Complex. When JToH does his standard "signing-off" to the viewers he gets cut off by Hard, who demands him to say something else. JToH says he can't due to it being the way he says it every episode.

In "A Heist Mission", Hard and Easy are happy about how they made it to the final 4. Hard tells Easy that she has never gotten a single vote and says she might be popular. Extreme approaches them and asks if she can join in their conversation. Hard declines and says all her friends are gone, but Extreme says Easy is her friend and asks her if they are. Hard yells at Extreme, making her cry and running away. He tells Easy not to be like Extreme. After Nil quits, Hard and Easy are confused what is going to happen next, but JToH tells them he needs to think of a challenge idea. When JToH announces the challenge Hard is happy because loves the game, but Easy hates it, saying she always loses when Hard asks her why. In the challenge, Hard asks Easy to team up, with Easy accepting his offer. Extreme is sad that the two are teaming up, then decides to kill Hard but hesitates, saying she doesn't want to kill anyone. Hard starts shooting at Extreme, killing her, with Hard going inside her tower. Easy tells Hard what he's doing, with Hard saying he's stealing Extreme's weapons. Easy tells Hard if he's going to steal her flag and Hard says he'll do it later. Hard then ends up shooting Easy, with Easy being very frustrated. Hard walks to his tower, with Extreme's weapons. Hard realizes he forgot to steal her flag when asked by Easy about the flag. Easy says she'll steal the flag but then drops dead after severe blood loss. Hard freaks out then goes to steal Easy's flag. Extreme gets revived and asks what Hard is doing, who he replies the opposite of what he's currently doing. Extreme is completely oblivious of what Hard is doing and is happy he's not stealing. Easy then gets revived and asks where her flag and weapons are. Hard accuses Extreme for the incident, who tries to deny it but gets shot by Easy. Later, Extreme tries to trick Hard but it doesn't work. Extreme instead grabs a doll of Remorseless and throws it to Hard, saying that Remorseless loves him. Hard falls for the trick and keeps looking at the Remorseless doll. Extreme then goes to steal his flag. Extreme has stolen Hard's flag, with Hard taking note of it later. He quickly runs to Extreme and brutally beats her up for stealing his flag. The challenge ends, with Hard winning the challenge. Easy is saddened that Hard stole her flag and accused Extreme. When Easy is eliminated, Hard yells at JToH about who voted Easy. JToH lists all the people who voted Easy and Hard sends a message to them, dropping the F-bomb on all 7 of them. Hard throws Easy a piece of paper before she walks away. Hard approaches Extreme, saying that the finale is close. The two argue about who's gonna win, then JToH tells them to save their anger for the finale.

In "And Our Story Ends...", Hard runs to Extreme and tells her if she's ready to lose against him. Extreme snaps at Hard, and starts ranting about how Hard is a jerk and how she will unleash her true dominance so she can beat Hard in the finale. Hard tells her that he has more fans, but Extreme denies. In round 1, Challenging argues that Hard will win because he's tough and not "soft" like Extreme, and Intense agrees with him. TooHard votes for Hard because Extreme is "unfunny". Medium is undecided at first, but decides to vote Hard because she still hates Extreme. Horrific votes for Hard at first but votes Extreme after being corrected by Unreal. Difficult and Effortless vote for Hard, and Nil votes for Extreme. Hard doesn't understand why Nil voted Extreme, then Nil explains his reasoning about Extreme doing good in challenges and being nice. Hard angrily says what Nil things about him, and Nil says he's cool but not as good as Extreme. Easy, who is frustrated, says that Hard should win because he's done good things but nobody has seen them. Nil tells Easy that Hard has done cruel things that Extreme would never do. JToH announces the votes and Extreme wins with 8, while Hard got 7. Hard yells at JToH that how the votes were 8-7 if only 14 people voted, and JToH says that he voted. In round 2, Hard is motivated for it so he can beat Extreme. When the challenge is picked, Hard hates the challenge at first, but realizes how he killed Extreme first in the challenge and says that the challenge is going to be easy. JToH tells him to watch out because if Extreme wins round 2, she wins the whole show. The two are then placed in the location from episode 9. Hard throws a ball to hit Extreme but she catches it, and throws it back at him. Hard kicks the ball and it hits Extreme, making her fall into the lava. Hard wins that round which makes him and Extreme tied, 1-1.

In round 3, Hard tells Easy to take explosives and tells Intense to take a sword, Hard then yells at them to go. Hard tells Difficult and Effortless to guard the tower, and tells Nil and TooHard to distract the other team. TooHard obliges and him and Nil leave. Hard, who is alone, is confused of where Challenging is. Later, Medium, who is wearing a disguise to trick Hard, asks Hard for more weapons and goes back to Extreme after. Later, Horrific approaches Hard, and says that he's cool before getting blown up by a falling TNT. Difficult and Effortless are shocked and believed that Hard died in the explosion but Hard says he's fine, though Horrific died. Difficult is relieved by the news. When Difficult falls off Hard's tower and dies, Hard gets a little frightened. Later, Effortless tells Hard that they ran out of weapons because Insane infiltrated their tower, Hard is appalled by this and thinks Insane is the reason Difficult died. Effortless is saddened at the news, and Hard tells her for the two to go over there and kick Extreme's team's butts. Effortless and Hard are later shown walking when they encounter Easy, who says she killed 3 people. Hard is glad as he didn't have to do it since Easy already did. She says Extreme is the only one left, then Easy gets crushed. Hard and Effortless are startled and shocked by what happened. Challenging furiously says who could've killed Easy, then gets killed with a spear to the head. Hard is confused and scared because he doesn't know who killed Easy, and doesn't see Extreme anywhere. Effortless is then grabbed by someone, who is then revealed to be Extreme. Hard gives Extreme a heartwarming message to stop, and she calms down and realizes what she's doing is wrong. However, Hard said all that stuff for her to be hesitant and to make it easier for Hard to kill Extreme. Hard throws a spear at Extreme but kills Effortless instead, Hard then has enough and challenges Extreme to a fight to the death. Extreme takes the spear that stabbed Effortless and agrees. Extreme and Hard run toward each other and Extreme hits Hard, who falls to the floor. Extreme is about to finish him off but hesitates because "it's wrong". Hard then jumps at Extreme, startling her. Hard punches and grabs Extreme, telling her how much he wants to win JD. He then throws her into her own tower wall, when she tries to get back up Hard kicks her back down to the ground. Hard has lost it, and tells Extreme to let him win for the final time before he tears her apart. Extreme has had enough and forcefully shoves him, making him almost fall off of St. Difficulties Cliff. Extreme kicks Hard off the cliff but he manages to grip on, Hard tells Extreme to not kick him off and says he thought she was nice. Extreme tells Hard that he has broken too many people's hearts, including her own, then she proceeds to kick him off the cliff. Hard is screaming as he falls to the ground and dies, getting second place in JToH Difficulties. Later, a disappointed Hard is being comforted by his friends, with Easy and Difficult telling him it's going to be okay. Hard then loses his temper and approaches Extreme, and punches her to the ground. Nil angrily asks Hard why he did that. Hard screams that he's "in a competition with a bunch of libtards", and the contestants gasp. Catastrophic asks Hard to explain how they are all idiots, and Hard obliges. He calls Challenging a stereotypical bully, Intense emo, tells Insane that he becomes depressed without Extreme, tells Horrific that she doesn't even know why she's here, and finally tells Extreme that she's the biggest moron because he should've won over her. Extreme tries to apologize but Hard yells at her even more. Unreal tells Hard to calm down, and Easy and Effortless calm Hard down. Hard is still disappointed that he got 2nd, but gets over his loss and turns more positive. Nil is glad that Hard is making sense, and Extreme asks Hard if he values her as a friend. Hard calls her "really cool", and Extreme is happy from this and tells Hard that she knew he had a loving and caring heart. Easy announces a pool party, and everyone starts cheering and walking away, except for Hard and Extreme. Hard apologizes to Extreme, who is very glad that he apologized. Extreme and Hard then walk away together. Hard is last shown walking to the others with Extreme, and Difficult yells out that Extreme and Hard came.
