The ‘Only Murders in the Building’ Season 3 Finale Left Us with 5 Major Questions

At the end of the season three finale, Sazz surprises the trio with an appearance at their opening night party in the Arconia. However, when she walks in, the stunt double tells Charles that she has something “sensitive” to tell him. She also jokes that she got into the building by making a copy of all of Charles’s keys (but is this really a joke?).

What is the sensitive topic Sazz needs to discuss with Charles? Is it something that could have saved her life? Or did it act as a clue for the gang following her death? Hopefully we'll find out.

While our three podcasters go through many changes in season three, they all have one thing in common by the end: love interests.

For the first time, all three of our leads find partners who aren't lying to them, tricking them or trying to kill them (phew!). However, when Oliver’s new paramour, Loretta (Meryl Streep), and Mabel’s boyfriend, Tobert (Jesse Williams), announce that they're moving to Los Angeles, it seems like the end of those relationships...but it could suggest something else.

Ever since they began their investigative work, Charles, Mabel and Oliver have remained in New York. But with two of their partners moving to Los Angeles, it seems as if some of their sleuthing will occur on the West Coast in season four (and hopefully we haven't seen the last of Streep or Williams). Since the victim is a Hollywood stunt double, it makes perfect sense that there may be clues awaiting the gang in The Golden State.

Speaking of locations, the Arconia has always been the setting of Only Murders in the Building (it's the titular building, for goodness sake). But while all three of our leads have lived there up to this point, we saw a shift this season when Mabel is forced to leave her aunt’s apartment, making her the only member who no longer lives in the Arconia.

While she mentions that she's living with her friend Theo for the time being, it's hard not to wonder where Mabel will end up next. What if Mabel moves somewhere outside of the building (which seems like a certainty at this point)? Will it cause more separation amongst the group? We'll be waiting to see.

Finally, the biggest question as season three draws to a close is whether someone was trying to kill Charles instead of Sazz.

Let's look at the facts—Sazz shows up in the same outfit as Charles, and she is in his apartment looking for wine when she is shot. She even uses his keys to get into the building (and perhaps was pretending to be Charles). Does that mean that bullet was meant for the Brazzos actor instead of the stunt double?

If it was meant for Charles, why does someone want to kill him? What enemies has he made and why would they want him dead? It seems likely that these lingering questions will be addressed in season four.
