During the Chasing Pastside-quest, he asks Kyle Crane for assistance with the orphan Tom Dooley. He then requests help with figuring out what happened to said orphan, promising a reward. After discovering the cannibal, Kyle returns to Tariq who gives him a key to a room in the museum containing various items. Upon returning, Kyle asks Tariq to get better at being around children
Crane:"Tariq?" Tariq:"What do you want? We don't have anything here but a few scraps of food." Crane:"Relax. Troy sent me." Tariq:"Troy? Thank God. I've been a nervous wreck since I found this kid. He's got nobody to look out for him, but I'm not so good with kid, y'know?" Crane:"That's not why I'm here." Tariq:"But... Troy promised she'd send someone." Crane:"I need to get into the museum." Tariq:"The museum? ... But Troy told me someone would come to help. She promised." Crane:"Okay, Tariq. You tell me how to get into the museum, and maybe I can sort out your problem here, okay?" Tariq:"Rais controls the museum. He would kill you on sight." Crane:"Well, then I can't have him see me. Now, Troy said you used to be the curator, and that if anybody would know a way in, it would be you. So, how do I it?" Tariq:"Do you have scuba gear, perhaps?" Crane:"No." Tariq:"Too bad. There's an entrance under the surface of Emerald Pond, but it would be a long swim under the water. You would most likely drown." Crane:"Well, most likely isn't definitely, so I guess I'll give it a try."
Crane:"Where'd you find him?" Tariq:"He just showed up. He barely talks and when he does, he says some strang things. A lot of it is about someone named Mike. The only thing he had with him was this voice recorder. But this fellah, Mike- it might be his brother. The kid says he left him behind. He asked me to go get him, but I don't think I can do it. It's too dangerous to take him with me and I don't want to leave him here alone." Crane:"Do you know where he lived?" Tariq:"Dolma Street. Unit eleven- two." Crane:"Ok, maybe I'll check it out." Tariq:"Keep this recorder. Maybe it'll help you understand what happened there."

After solving the mystery:
— Tariq:"You're back? Did you find Mike?" Crane:"Mike was his dog. He's dead. So's his father. And it wasn't even the Infected. It was just some twisted creep." Tariq:"This place... It's too much for people. Listen, Crane... These are the keys to the museum storage. There's a lot of weapons from all different times. Maybe you'll find something useful there." Crane:"Thanks, Tariq. But there's something else I want from you." Tariq:"Sure. Anything." Crane:"You said you're not good with kids." Tariq:"No. Not really." Crane:"Well, get good." Tariq:"I will try. I give you my word."
