Determined to support his friend, Ben tries to convince her not to give up on her dream of becoming a lawyer. Meanwhile, Bonnie finds out that Amy (Lacey Chabert) has taken a pregnancy test and struggles to keep the secret, while Danny tries to win over Amy's father (guest star Andy Buckley), who clearly dislikes him.

"Baby Daddy" follows Ben (Jean-Luc Bilodeau), a young man in his early 20s living the life of a bachelor as a bartender in New York City with his buddy, Tucker (Tahj Mowry), and his brother, Danny (Derek Theler), a professional hockey player. Their lives are turned upside down when they come home one day to find a baby girl left on the doorstep by an ex-girlfriend of Ben's. After much deliberation, Ben decides to raise the baby with the help of his friends and his protective and sometimes over-bearing mother, Bonnie (Melissa Peterman), and his close female friend, Riley (Chelsea Kane), who has had a secret crush on him since childhood. Riley is hopeful that Ben will finally take notice, but she doesn't realize that Ben's brother, Danny, is harboring a secret crush on her.
