Mary-Kate Olsen portrays Tara, a religious girl who dates Silas and becomes a dealer to her church. The character is something of a complicated parody since Tara loudly professes her views but is always right on the brink of betraying them; for example, she "honors God with her abstinence" but spends the night with Silas. Tara is introduced in Season 3, episode 6 "Grasshopper" when she notices Silas selling weed at a bingo game.
