List of 90210 characters
Played by Jessica Stroup since the pilot, Erin Silver was originally introduced in "Beverly Hills, 90210". She is commonly called by her last name Silver, and is Kelly Taylor's and David Silver's half-sister. She published her own blog called "The Vicious Circle", which she used to discuss intimate details (truth or fiction) about her peers at West Beverly High School. She becomes best friends with Annie and develops a romantic interest in Dixon, which quickly blossoms into a relationship. It is revealed that Silver shared the information of father's affair with her then-best-friend Naomi. Naomi makes this public knowledge, causing Silver's mother to turn to drinking. She celebrates her half-birthday only because her mother always seems to mess up her real birthday. In "By Accident" Dixon dumps her after taking advice from his mother Debbie, but later in "Help Me, Rhonda", they get back together after Silver says that she loves him. She decides to put together a romantic dinner for Dixon on Valentine's Day, which doesn't go exactly as planned and Silver begins to freak out as she wanted it to be perfect, but Dixon assures her that he's having a good time. He gives her a bracelet, and she loses her virginity to Dixon. Silver has always had a slightly manic personality, but in "Life's a Drag" she becomes more unbalanced. She visits Dixon at the Peach Pit where they end up having sex. Silver secretly tapes it and then shows the tape to an entire theater, causing Dixon to break up with her. She ends up breaking into Ryan Matthews' house, claiming that he destroyed her relationship with Dixon, and threatening him with a bottle of wine unless he fixes everything. Silver then attempts to run away to Kansas, stating repeatedly that going there would help her solve her problems with Dixon. A stranger finds her while she is saying random things and acting erratically. The stranger then calls someone to come get her. Dixon and his mother and father find her on the train tracks. Dixon remembers about his birth mother having bipolar disorder and showing similar symptoms, and realizes that Silver suffers from it also. Dixon calms Silver down and they take her to the hospital. Soon Silver finds it unbearable to go back to West Beverly High and decides to go to St. Claire's School for a better semester. Dixon tries to help her re-adjust and get back to her old life. She and Dixon decide to go to the prom together. After Dixon rigs the results, Silver is awarded the West Bev. "prom queen" at that year's prom, but admits that she's not prom material, which creates distance between her and Dixon. In the season finale, she asks Ethan about her and Dixon. She says they are too different, but she loves him. Ethan assures her that they work and they make a great couple, which Silver is relieved to hear. It is soon mentioned to Silver that Ethan has a crush on her after Dixon confronts him about it. After hearing the news, Silver runs after Ethan to find out if its true. Ethan and Silver share a kiss, and he tells her he wants to be with her. When she tells him they can't, he points out that she ran after him instead of being with Dixon, and she is left confused.
