Sad but true. Erica's character arc wasn't ideal in season 1, but I thought it had a very nice balance to it. She had her positive interactions with V's like Ryan and Joshua and we saw the beginnings of her relationship with Lisa. It provided a very good counter-point to her more negative interactions with Dale, Malik, Marcus and Anna. But in season 2 that balance was completely shot to hell. All her positive human/V interactions were dismantled and the V's ended up destroying every little part of her life. Like I said before, if Erica were a boat she definitely would have capsized after episode 6 already. Maybe even a little bit earlier.
