Archer typically features a cast of destructive and unpredictable loose cannons, with the most chaotic being the titular Sterling Archer.
But the birth of his daughter with Lana changed everything for Sterling — and the entire trajectory of the show as a whole. Let’s look at how Sterling and Lana Kane ended up having a surprise daughter and how she’s already grown.
During the early seasons of Archer, Lana Kane had an on-again-off-again romance with Cyril Figgis, while denying any lingering attraction to her ex, Sterling.
However, after leaving Cyril and hinting at a desire to become a mother, Lana eventually took a frozen sperm sample from Archer and used it to induce a pregnancy — which was revealed in the second half of Season 4’s “Sea Tunt.”
Lana spent most of Season 5 pregnant, largely keeping her out of the field. At the end of the season, Lana gives birth to a girl, Abbijean, and reveals the truth of her parentage to Archer.
A recurring plot element of Season 6 was how the existence of Abbijean — who naturally picked up elements of her father’s personality — affected Archer and Lana’s relationship, with the pair eventually deciding to give an actual romance another shot.
She later revealed that the father was a sperm donor, which has been used as a point of ridicule against her ever since. In “Archer Vice: Arrival/Departure”, Lana gives birth to a girl, and she reveals to Sterling Archer that he is the father by using his frozen sperm.
