Tim Allen's "Last Man Standing" character Mike Baxter just can't stay away.

In a Fox News exclusive clip, Baxter wastes no time snooping on his daughter, Kristin, as she heads up Outdoor Man while Baxter is supposed to be away.

"I was wondering how long it would take you to check on your daughter," Baxter's business partner and friend, Ed, tells him.

"I'm not checking on her," Baxter deflects. "I'm checking on you."
