Louie season 2 episode 12, titled "Duckling: Part 2" follows the titular character, Louie, as he continues to navigate his new role as a father. In the previous episode, Louie's younger brother Bobby came to visit him and brought along his young daughter, who Louie agreed to take care of while Bobby went out of town for a few days. This episode picks up where the previous one left off, with Louie feeling overwhelmed and frustrated as he tries to juggle his responsibilities as a parent, his career as a comedian, and his personal life.

The episode starts with Louie taking his daughter, Lilly, to the park to feed the ducks. However, things quickly go awry when the ducks become aggressive and start attacking Lilly. Louie rushes to protect her and ends up getting bitten himself, which only adds to his stress and anxiety.

As the day progresses, Louie tries his best to keep Lilly entertained. He takes her to the zoo, where they see all sorts of animals, including a baby gorilla that Louie can't help but feel connected to. Later on, they go to a restaurant where Louie's friend, Amia, works as a waitress. Amia is a Hungarian immigrant who Louie has been trying to communicate with despite the language barrier between them. However, when Amia tries to talk to Lilly in her mother tongue, Lilly becomes frightened and refuses to go near her. Louie is embarrassed by Lilly's behavior and tries to apologize to Amia, but she tells him not to worry about it.

The episode continues with Louie struggling to put Lilly down for a nap, and trying to deal with her various tantrums and outbursts. He also has several encounters with other parents, including a group of moms who give him unsolicited advice, and a father who criticizes him for letting Lilly watch TV. These interactions only add to Louie's feelings of inadequacy as a parent.
