Line 20:
Erin is the only daughter of Rita Barksdale and the only cousin of [[Daria Morgendorffer|Daria]] and [[Quinn Morgendorffer]] on their mother's side of the family. She's twenty-one years old in "I Don't", and twenty-four in "[[Aunt Nauseum]]".
 
She seems to have been raised to be trophy wife and her aunt [[Helen Morgendorffer|Helen]] thinks she is spoiled by her grandmother, like Rita had been before her. In "Nauseum", Rita said she couldn't work as she was raising a ''child'', even though Erin was twenty-four at the time. However, "Nauseum" mentions Erin ''does'' have a job: one with a salary (rather than wages) and that could support her husband as well. (It was not stated what the job was.)
 
[[Image:Erin_annoyed.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Erin let's loose on what she thinks of Paul (and Rita).]]
Eric makes her only appearance in "I Don't", where she marries [[Brian Danielson]]. In the episode she was shown doting on her fiancee and attempting to keep the peace between her mother and her aunt. She also showed contempt for [[Paul Meyerson]], her mother's then boyfriend, and a friendly attitude towards Daria (who dislikes Erin).
 
Eric makes her only appearance in "I Don't", where she marries [[Brian Danielson]]. In the episode she was shown doting on her fiancee and attempting to keep the peace between her mother and her aunt. She also showed contempt for [[Paul Meyerson]], her mother's then boyfriend, and an irritation with her mother & her dates ("you know ''exactly'' what's going on here, ''mother''"); she also showed a friendly attitude towards Daria (who dislikes Erin).
 
The marriage, however, would hit some hard times soon after and, in the later episode "[[The Story of D]]", it is revealed that Erin is thinking of a divorce, stating she had never loved Brian and the only reason for the marriage was that he had given her [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herpes herpes] and she thought no one else would want her. She would actually start proceedings for a divorce in the episode "[[Aunt Nauseum]]", hiring Helen to help her and revealing that Brian had gotten her to sign a pre-nuptial which would sign half of all assets over to him if there was a divorce. However, the divorce attempt would end when [[Grandma Barksdale|Erin's grandmother]] sends her to a spa in Switzerland for a week to 'calm her nerves'. Brian then flows out to Switzerland to talk her out of it and the two end up having a second honeymoon there. (As he was reliant on ''her'' salary at the time, it is assumed in [[fanon]] that Grandma Barksdale paid to fly him to Switzerland to get the couple back together)
