At the same time, Mindy becomes increasingly concerned about Danny’s commitment to their relationship when he fails to show up for an important dinner with her parents. Meanwhile, Morgan overhears part of a conversation and mistakenly believes Danny may not be the father of Mindy’s baby, sending him on a frantic and ridiculous mission to investigate all of Mindy’s former boyfriends.
