In the show, Erin played Molly Marie Hughes who joined the show in the second season. Molly, who grew up in the United Kingdom, was homeschooled throughout her childhood and as a result, she became poor at socializing and interacting with others – this makes her very eager to make new friends and relate with her coworkers.
