Bucky was definitely a little shaken by the fact that Molly had been turned into a clone. It just showed how off his game he was, that he hadn't put too much stock in his daughter's change in behavior. He just thought it had to do with being a little mad at her boyfriend still, starting college, and just generally adjusting to this new phase in her life. Not to mention, he was busy getting the house back in order after being gone for about a week. His garden was finally back in a good place, at least.
The text from Ian was a nice distraction for sure, so he told his friend that he was free and greeted him when he opened the door.
"Nah, I needed a break from laundry anyway," Bucky replied with a grin. "What can I help you with?"
