Shrinking: Jason Segel Abandons 'Workday Dad' Duties to Become 'Nighttime Daddy' in Honest Talk with Daughter in Sneak Peek (Exclusive)

Jason Segel is tugging on the heartstrings in this ultimate daddy-daughter moment.

In PEOPLE's exclusive first look at the Shrinking season 2 premiere, the actor, 44, shares an honest conversation with his onscreen daughter Alice (Lukita Maxwell), who confronts him about the recent changes he's made in his life.

The highly anticipated second installment will continue telling the story of Segel as a grieving therapist named Jimmy, who "starts to break the rules and tell his clients exactly what he thinks," per the official logline. "Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making huge, tumultuous changes to people's lives...including his own."

Alongside Segel, Harrison Ford, Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, Christa Miller and Ted McGinley are all returning for season 2. Brett Goldstein will also appear as a special guest star.

"Man, I think it is so brave that you're being this honest with me," Jimmy begins, addressing his daughter sitting across from him. "Yes, I am stressed out about grace, but that's work day dad, nighttime daddy is fine."

When Alice makes a face at his "nighttime daddy" comment, Jimmy acknowledges he "heard it" and he's "not going to say it again."

"Point is, I can handle it now. I'm in a much better place," he says, to which Alice agrees and adds, "I know, something changed a few months ago and it felt like you came back to life."

"All I'm saying is whatever it was just, promise me you won't stop doing it," she continues after he reveals he's been taking a new approach called "jimmying."

When Jimmy agrees to keep doing what he's doing, the two share a quick but tender hug before Alice says goodbye and races offscreen.
