Changes: Abbiejean Kane-Archer

Revision as of 17:03, 28 February 2015

Abbiejean Malory "A.J." Kane-Archer is the daughter of Lana Kane and Sterling Archer. She was born in San Marcos.

Character History

When Lana Kane becomes fixated on having a baby she secretly visits the ISIS sperm bank, examining many specimens before choosing a frozen vial provided by Sterling Archer. In part two of the season four finale, Lana reveals her resultant pregnancy, much to everyone's shock. Cyril, who recently resumed dating Lana after their break-up, asks when she was planning to tell him; Lana then reveals Cyril isn't the father. She tries to explain to a seemingly-cuckolded Cyril that the biological father is a donor, but is cut off when he escapes through the sea vents. Lana's pregnancy effectively ends their relationship.

For most of the fifth season Lana is pregnant and throughout said time she fosters her maternal instincts by "mothering" her friends. In each episode, she finds her patience being pushed to its limit by their crazy antics and begins regretting her decision to become pregnant. In the season 5 finale, Lana's baby is born in a Central American airport. Archer, who sought certification as a doula, helps deliver the baby. However when push comes to shove, Malory comes to the rescue when Archer provides little support.

While on the flight home, Lana is finally able to pull Archer aside to recount the story of her visit to the sperm bank; Archer, however, tunes her out, instead fixating on the baby, who has begun to exhibit some of his mannerisms. Snapping to focus, Archer asks Lana what she's been talking about and she calmly introduces him to his daughter, Abbiejean.

Notes

When A.J. was first born, she exhibited similar traits of Archer such as raising one finger as a way to say "Just a minute" this was a definite clue that she was his daughter seconds before Lana confirmed it.
Though Malory believes she'd be baby A.J.'s caretaker, Lana tells Archer that should something happen only to her, A.J. would live with Lana's parents or her sister.
In the episode Nellis, Malory suggest changing Abbiejean's name to "Malory" only for Lana to deny her however, Malory's "tears" and "sadness" ultimately force her to settle for letting A.J. have "Malory" as a middle name. "Malory" is also Sterling's middle name.
