After the finale, the season was ranked 14th on the list of most in-demand shows in the U.S. and signaled a \"massive\" 135% growth rate.

[ 22 ] Kristen Baldwin of  Entertainment Weekly  gave the season a \"B\" grade and wrote, \" Only Murders  delivers above-average laughs, a clever mystery, and a starry cast. But it's hard to shake the feeling that the show missed an opportunity to be something special.\" [ 23 ]  Reviewing for  Rolling Stone ,  Alan Sepinwall  gave a rating of four and a half out of five stars for the season, and said \"The series soon turns out to be—like  The Princess Bride ,  Galaxy Quest , or  Jane the Virgin —that rare and wonderful thing: the parody that also offers a great example of the genuine article.\" [ 24 ] The first season received 17 nominations at the  74th Primetime Emmy Awards , with three wins, including  Nathan Lane  for  Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series . Notable nominations included,  Outstanding Comedy Series ,  Steve Martin  and  Martin Short  for  Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series ,  Jamie Babbit  and  Cherien Dabis  for  Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series , and Martin and  John Hoffman  for  Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series .

By chance, the three meet on an elevator, joined by Tim Kono, who enters talking frantically on his phone. That night, after evacuating the building for an alarm, they bond over their shared love of a certain true crime podcast. They learn that there was a death at the Arconia and sneak back inside, where they find Tim murdered. The investigators believe it was suicide, but the three think otherwise. They find more evidence, such as Tim's frantic phone call in the elevator and a package addressed to him that contained an engagement ring. Meanwhile, Oliver struggles with his relationship with his son, Charles discusses his need for solitude, and Mabel expresses her fear of getting personal with people. They start a podcast titled *Only Murders in the Building* as they continue to investigate. An old photo is shown of Mabel and the friends she dubbed \"My Hardy Boys\", which includes Tim. **Note**: The episode begins with a flash-forward set two months after the trio's first meeting, in which Charles and Oliver find Mabel kneeling over a dead body. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 2 | 2 | \"Who Is Tim Kono?\" | Jamie Babbit | [Kirker Butler](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kirker_Butler \"Kirker Butler\") | August 31, 2021 (2021-08-31) | 1DWB02 |\n| Charles and Oliver try to learn more about who Tim was, and along with Mabel they attend a memorial service for him. Tim was unpopular among many Arconia residents and had several complaints filed against him. The three go into Tim's apartment to find more clues, but their lack of trust in one another makes things tense. Mabel privately records a video that reveals she has known Tim since they were children, bonding over *[The Hardy Boys](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Hardy_Boys \"The Hardy Boys\")* books and solving pretend mysteries together. As they grew older, they added new friends Oscar and Zoe. One night, 10 years earlier, the four attended a New Year's Eve party on the roof of the building, and Zoe was later found dead. As he and Zoe had been arguing earlier in the evening, Oscar was arrested for her murder, but Tim told Mabel that he had seen someone else fighting with Zoe before she died. He did not disclose this to the police, causing a rift between him and Mabel. Later, Mabel revisits Tim's apartment and finds a cache of jewelry. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 3 | 3 | \"How Well Do You Know Your Neighbors?\" | [Gillian Robespierre](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gillian_Robespierre \"Gillian Robespierre\") | Ben Smith | August 31, 2021 (2021-08-31) | 1DWB03 |\n| Oliver uses his theater director skills to find the prime suspect in the investigation, which leads them to their cat-loving neighbor, Howard. They find his cat's paw prints in Tim's blood, but upon a visit they discover Howard has [vasovagal syncope](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Reflex_syncope \"Reflex syncope\"), making it impossible for him to be a cold-blooded murderer. Board president Bunny Folger threatens to evict Oliver if he does not pay his building fees. He goes to his old associate Teddy Dimas, begging for money; after initially refusing, Teddy agrees to sponsor the podcast. Charles meets Jan, a professional bassoonist, and Mabel suggests that he ask her out. Oliver sees [Sting](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sting_\$musician\$ \"Sting (musician)\") in the elevator, and thinks he may also be a suspect. Mabel comes across a note from Tim detailing a meeting in one week with somebody identified only as \"G.M.\". Oliver discovers a threatening note on his door and that Winnie, his bulldog, has been poisoned, presumably by the same perpetrator. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 4 | 4 | \"The Sting\" | Gillian Robespierre | Kristin Newman | September 7, 2021 (2021-09-07) | 1DWB04 |\n| Oliver suspects that Sting poisoned Winnie and enlists the help of Charles and Mabel to prove he is guilty of both Winnie's poisoning and Tim's murder. After consulting Cinda Canning, the host of their favorite podcast, the trio present Sting with a turkey and question him about Tim, revealed to be Sting's former stockbroker. Sting guiltily confesses that, after Tim lost a substantial sum of his money, he angrily fired Tim and told him to kill himself, but is relieved when the trio announce that they believe Tim's death was murder, not suicide. Meanwhile, Charles goes on a date with Jan. It is a disaster, but she agrees to a second date when Charles later shares a personal story with her. Mabel finds out that \"G.M.\" is actually a place called \"Gus Montrose's Gems\", and Oliver's son, Will, reveals that he remembers Mabel from their youth and her connection to Tim. A flash forward to a few months later reveals that Charles, Oliver, and Mabel are the subject of Cinda Canning's new podcast, *Only Murderers in the Building*. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 5 | 5 | \"Twist\" | [Don Scardino](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Don_Scardino \"Don Scardino\") | [Thembi L.

He offers to drive her wherever she is going, and Mabel directs him to [Bayport, New York](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bayport,_New_York \"Bayport, New York\"), on [Long Island](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Long_Island \"Long Island\"). Charles and Oliver see Mabel leaving the Arconia with a stranger, so they follow her with the help of a horticulture podcast's hosts, who have heard about their podcast. Charles and Oliver catch up with Mabel, who finally admits that she knew Tim. Gus Montrose's Gems is revealed to be a tattoo parlor that was a contact point of a black-market jewelry dealer named \"Angel\". They learn there that Tim had been trying to take Angel down for years, which is why he collected the jewels in his apartment. Oscar admits that he is \"Tie-Dye Guy\", someone Charles saw during the evacuation of the building, but claims that he did not murder Tim; he was, however, outside Tim's door when he heard a gunshot. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 6 | 6 | \"To Protect and Serve\" | Don Scardino | [Madeleine George](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Madeleine_George \"Madeleine George\") & Kim Rosenstock | September 21, 2021 (2021-09-21) | 1DWB06 |\n| Oscar and Mabel appear to have feelings for each other. Mabel's mother does not want her involved in Tim's murder investigation, but Mabel asserts her independence on this matter. Meanwhile, Detective Williams discovers the growing popularity of the *Only Murders in the Building* podcast and starts having second thoughts about closing Tim's case so quickly. While dealing with the pressure of the arrival of her and her wife's first child, she decides to send Tim's phone to Mabel to help their investigation. Cinda Canning appears on [Jimmy Fallon's show](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Tonight_Show_Starring_Jimmy_Fallon \"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\"), openly mocking the podcast, but Teddy is thrilled that his business is mentioned on Fallon's show. He writes Charles and Oliver a check for \\$50,000 for more episodes. Charles notices that the check is drawn from an \"Angel\" account, making Teddy the black market dealer Tim was after. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 7 | 7 | \"The Boy from 6B\" | [Cherien Dabis](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cherien_Dabis \"Cherien Dabis\") | [Stephen Markley](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Stephen_Markley \"Stephen Markley\") & [Ben Philippe](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ben_Philippe \"Ben Philippe\") | September 28, 2021 (2021-09-28) | 1DWB07 |\n| Teddy's son Theo spies on the trio and breaks in to take photos of their board of suspects, relaying to his father that the podcast is on to them, but Teddy dismisses the concerns. Charles and Mabel break into Teddy's apartment and discover a secret room of urns from a funeral home. Later, Oliver and Mabel leave to investigate the funeral home, while Charles has a date with Jan. At the funeral home, the two discover a secret room with jewelry. Theo is working there and stealing items off the bodies, and soon notices Oliver and Mabel. Flashbacks reveal that Theo had a crush on Zoe, who communicated with him in ASL. Theo saw Zoe stealing a ring from Teddy's apartment, which Teddy noticed during the New Year's Eve party. After an argument, Theo and Zoe got into a scuffle that led to Zoe falling off the roof by accident. Tim was the only witness, but an implied death threat from Teddy silenced him. Back in the present, Theo has kidnapped Oliver and Mabel, driving them to an unknown location, but not before they send texts to Charles telling him the password to Tim's phone might be \"Theo\". **Note**: There is only one audible dialogue throughout this episode. The rest of the scenes are either shown from Theo's perspective or present situations where the characters stay quiet. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 8 | 8 | \"Fan Fiction\" | Cherien Dabis | Matteo Borghese & Rob Turbovsky | October 5, 2021 (2021-10-05) | 1DWB08 |\n| Teddy returns Mabel and Oliver to the Arconia on the condition that they end the podcast and absolve the Dimas family of suspicion. Back at the building, Mabel and Oliver are swarmed by fans of the podcast calling themselves \"the Arconiacs\". Detective Williams suggests the trio release all their evidence on the podcast. Oscar shares that Tim already had Zoe's green ring when he died and was planning on using it as evidence, although its whereabouts are unknown. Oliver invites the Arconiacs to help the group solve Tim's murder in time for their abrupt series finale. Charles is distracted by Jan, so Mabel and Oliver force her out of the investigation. Jan returns to her apartment, where she finds a note on the door that reads: \"I'm watching you\". The podcast finale premieres, complete with evidence of the Dimases' crimes. Williams doubts the Dimases' involvement in the murder when Tim's autopsy reveals death by poisoning. Security footage also proves Teddy and Theo were not in the building at the time of Tim's murder. Charles visits Jan's apartment, where he finds her unconscious and bleeding. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 9 | 9 | \"Double Time\" | Jamie Babbit | John Hoffman & Kristin Newman | October 12, 2021 (2021-10-12) | 1DWB09 |\n| On their podcast, the trio retract their accusation of Teddy and Theo in Tim's murder. Jan survives her stabbing and Charles helps with her recovery. Charles's former stunt double, Sazz Pataki, shows up and immediately jumps into helping the trio investigate, much to the dismay of Charles and Jan. Later, a building meeting is called to address the podcast and the building votes to evict the trio, even after Charles says the podcast is done. Oliver and Mabel try to find a new lead to convince Charles to stay on the investigation and speculate that Tim might have had a secret girlfriend, a theory seemingly confirmed by Tim's neighbor. Charles goes to Jan's concert at Sazz's urging and sees a young female bassoonist who has replaced Jan at first chair. At the same time, Oliver and Mabel find a bassoon cleaner among Tim's stash of sex toys. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n| 10 | 10 | \"Open and Shut\" | Jamie Babbit | John Hoffman & Rachel Burger | October 19, 2021 (2021-10-19) | 1DWB10 |\n| The trio realize that Jan is the murderer. Having been romantically involved with Tim, she killed him a day after they broke up. Mabel and Oliver break into Jan's apartment and find evidence, including a poison bottle, Zoe's ring, and a bloody knife she used to stab herself to deflect suspicion. As Charles confronts Jan, he realizes she has poisoned him. Jan tries to gas the whole building via the newly open fireplaces, but the trio run to the basement and stop it. Jan appears and threatens to shoot them. A scuffle ensues, ending with Mabel knocking Jan out with the emerald ring. Jan is arrested while Charles is treated by paramedics. Days later, as the trio celebrate, Mabel goes to get more champagne, and Oliver and Charles receive a mysterious text message telling them to leave the building. The scene that opened the series is repeated, as Oliver and Charles run to Mabel and find her hunched over Bunny's dead body, covered in blood. The trio is led out of the Arconia in handcuffs while the Arconia tenants and others, including Detective Williams, Oscar, and Cinda, watch. |   |   |   |   |   |   |\n\n## Production\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=Only_Murders_in_the_Building_season_1&action=edit&section=6 \"Edit section: Production\")\\]\n\n### Development\n\\[[edit](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/w\/index.php?title=Only_Murders_in_the_Building_season_1&action=edit&section=7 \"Edit section: Development\")\\]\n\nCo-creator and star [Steve Martin](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Steve_Martin \"Steve Martin\") conceived of the idea for *[Only Murders in the Building](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Only_Murders_in_the_Building \"Only Murders in the Building\")* decades before its premiere.[\\[1\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Only_Murders_in_the_Building_season_1#cite_note-:1-1) His original idea involved three elderly men who discover that they are all obsessed with solving crimes, but are too old and tired to go outside, so they decide to solve crimes that are only in the building.

The season also stars Aaron Dominguez and Amy Ryan . In January 2020, Hulu greenlit Only Murders in the Building for a straight-to-series order. Filming for the season began in December 2020, and wrapped in April 2021. The season consists of ten episodes, and had a three-episode premiere on August 31, 2021.

[ 1 ] His original idea involved three elderly men who discover that they are all obsessed with solving crimes, but are too old and tired to go outside, so they decide to solve crimes that are only in the building. The idea later developed with one of the old men changed to a younger woman. [ 2 ] In January 2020, it was announced Hulu had greenlit a straight-to-series order for a then untitled half-hour serialized comedy created by Martin and John Hoffman , with Martin, Martin Short , and Hoffman as executive producers, alongside Dan Fogelman , with 20th Television serving as the studio. [ 1 ] Alongside the initial announcement, it was announced Martin and Short would star in the series.

[ 15 ] The first season made its broadcast television premiere on ABC on January 2, 2024; episodes were edited to meet broadcast standards and practices and follow FCC rules. [ 16 ] Audience viewership [ edit ] On September 3, 2021, it was reported that the first season of Only Murders in the Building set a record for the most-watched comedy premiere in Hulu 's history. [ 17 ] On October 28, 2021, Hulu Originals president Craig Erwich said in an interview with Vulture that the season had become the most-watched comedy ever on Hulu "by a good measure." In the same article, Vulture reported that, according to Parrot Analytics, the season went from having around 16 times the audience demand in the U.S. as an average show when it debuted on August 31 to generating 37 times typical demand by the time the season finale dropped on October 19. After the finale, the season was ranked 14th on the list of most in-demand shows in the U.S. and signaled a "massive" 135% growth rate. [ 18 ] According to the streaming aggregator JustWatch , the first season of Only Murders in the Building was the most-streamed television series across all U.S. platforms during the week ending October 24, 2021, [ 19 ] and second during the week ending October 31, 2021. [ 20 ] The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 100% approval rating with an average rating of 8/10, based on 108 critic reviews for the season. The website's critics consensus reads, " Only Murders in the Building ' s silly approach to true crime obsessives is at once hilarious and insightful, thanks in large part to its extremely charming central trio." [ 21 ] Metacritic gave the season a weighted average score of 76 out of 100 based on 34 critic reviews, indicating "generally favorable" reviews. [ 22 ] Kristen Baldwin of Entertainment Weekly gave the season a "B" grade and wrote, " Only Murders delivers above-average laughs, a clever mystery, and a starry cast. But it's hard to shake the feeling that the show missed an opportunity to be something special." [ 23 ] Reviewing for Rolling Stone , Alan Sepinwall gave a rating of four and a half out of five stars for the season, and said "The series soon turns out to be—like The Princess Bride , Galaxy Quest , or Jane the Virgin —that rare and wonderful thing: the parody that also offers a great example of the genuine article." [ 24 ] The first season received 17 nominations at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards , with three wins, including Nathan Lane for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series . Notable nominations included, Outstanding Comedy Series , Steve Martin and Martin Short for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series , Jamie Babbit and Cherien Dabis for Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series , and Martin and John Hoffman for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series . [ 25 ] [ 26 ] "The Boy from 6B", the seventh episode of the season, was given the Seal of Authentic Representation from the Ruderman Family Foundation for the portrayal of Theo by James Caverly , as an actor with a disability and at least five lines of dialogue. [ 27 ] The season was additionally recognized with The ReFrame Stamp for hiring people of underrepresented gender identities, and of color. [ 28 ]

By chance, the three meet on an elevator, joined by Tim Kono, who enters talking frantically on his phone. That night, after evacuating the building for an alarm, they bond over their shared love of a certain true crime podcast. They learn that there was a death at the Arconia and sneak back inside, where they find Tim murdered. The investigators believe it was suicide, but the three think otherwise. They find more evidence, such as Tim's frantic phone call in the elevator and a package addressed to him that contained an engagement ring. Meanwhile, Oliver struggles with his relationship with his son, Charles discusses his need for solitude, and Mabel expresses her fear of getting personal with people. They start a podcast titled Only Murders in the Building as they continue to investigate. An old photo is shown of Mabel and the friends she dubbed "My Hardy Boys", which includes Tim. Note: The episode begins with a flash-forward set two months after the trio's first meeting, in which Charles and Oliver find Mabel kneeling over a dead body. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 2 \| 2 \| "Who Is Tim Kono?" \| Jamie Babbit \| [Kirker Butler](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirker_Butler "Kirker Butler") \| August 31, 2021 (2021-08-31) \| 1DWB02 \| \| Charles and Oliver try to learn more about who Tim was, and along with Mabel they attend a memorial service for him. Tim was unpopular among many Arconia residents and had several complaints filed against him. The three go into Tim's apartment to find more clues, but their lack of trust in one another makes things tense. Mabel privately records a video that reveals she has known Tim since they were children, bonding over [The Hardy Boys](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hardy_Boys "The Hardy Boys") books and solving pretend mysteries together. As they grew older, they added new friends Oscar and Zoe. One night, 10 years earlier, the four attended a New Year's Eve party on the roof of the building, and Zoe was later found dead. As he and Zoe had been arguing earlier in the evening, Oscar was arrested for her murder, but Tim told Mabel that he had seen someone else fighting with Zoe before she died. He did not disclose this to the police, causing a rift between him and Mabel. Later, Mabel revisits Tim's apartment and finds a cache of jewelry. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 3 \| 3 \| "How Well Do You Know Your Neighbors?" \| [Gillian Robespierre](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillian_Robespierre "Gillian Robespierre") \| Ben Smith \| August 31, 2021 (2021-08-31) \| 1DWB03 \| \| Oliver uses his theater director skills to find the prime suspect in the investigation, which leads them to their cat-loving neighbor, Howard. They find his cat's paw prints in Tim's blood, but upon a visit they discover Howard has [vasovagal syncope](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_syncope "Reflex syncope"), making it impossible for him to be a cold-blooded murderer. Board president Bunny Folger threatens to evict Oliver if he does not pay his building fees. He goes to his old associate Teddy Dimas, begging for money; after initially refusing, Teddy agrees to sponsor the podcast. Charles meets Jan, a professional bassoonist, and Mabel suggests that he ask her out. Oliver sees [Sting](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sting_$musician$ "Sting (musician)") in the elevator, and thinks he may also be a suspect. Mabel comes across a note from Tim detailing a meeting in one week with somebody identified only as "G.M.". Oliver discovers a threatening note on his door and that Winnie, his bulldog, has been poisoned, presumably by the same perpetrator. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 4 \| 4 \| "The Sting" \| Gillian Robespierre \| Kristin Newman \| September 7, 2021 (2021-09-07) \| 1DWB04 \| \| Oliver suspects that Sting poisoned Winnie and enlists the help of Charles and Mabel to prove he is guilty of both Winnie's poisoning and Tim's murder. After consulting Cinda Canning, the host of their favorite podcast, the trio present Sting with a turkey and question him about Tim, revealed to be Sting's former stockbroker. Sting guiltily confesses that, after Tim lost a substantial sum of his money, he angrily fired Tim and told him to kill himself, but is relieved when the trio announce that they believe Tim's death was murder, not suicide. Meanwhile, Charles goes on a date with Jan. It is a disaster, but she agrees to a second date when Charles later shares a personal story with her. Mabel finds out that "G.M." is actually a place called "Gus Montrose's Gems", and Oliver's son, Will, reveals that he remembers Mabel from their youth and her connection to Tim. A flash forward to a few months later reveals that Charles, Oliver, and Mabel are the subject of Cinda Canning's new podcast, Only Murderers in the Building. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 5 \| 5 \| "Twist" \| [Don Scardino](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Scardino "Don Scardino") \| [Thembi L.

He offers to drive her wherever she is going, and Mabel directs him to [Bayport, New York](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayport,_New_York "Bayport, New York"), on [Long Island](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Island "Long Island"). Charles and Oliver see Mabel leaving the Arconia with a stranger, so they follow her with the help of a horticulture podcast's hosts, who have heard about their podcast. Charles and Oliver catch up with Mabel, who finally admits that she knew Tim. Gus Montrose's Gems is revealed to be a tattoo parlor that was a contact point of a black-market jewelry dealer named "Angel". They learn there that Tim had been trying to take Angel down for years, which is why he collected the jewels in his apartment. Oscar admits that he is "Tie-Dye Guy", someone Charles saw during the evacuation of the building, but claims that he did not murder Tim; he was, however, outside Tim's door when he heard a gunshot. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 6 \| 6 \| "To Protect and Serve" \| Don Scardino \| [Madeleine George](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madeleine_George "Madeleine George") & Kim Rosenstock \| September 21, 2021 (2021-09-21) \| 1DWB06 \| \| Oscar and Mabel appear to have feelings for each other. Mabel's mother does not want her involved in Tim's murder investigation, but Mabel asserts her independence on this matter. Meanwhile, Detective Williams discovers the growing popularity of the Only Murders in the Building podcast and starts having second thoughts about closing Tim's case so quickly. While dealing with the pressure of the arrival of her and her wife's first child, she decides to send Tim's phone to Mabel to help their investigation. Cinda Canning appears on [Jimmy Fallon's show](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tonight_Show_Starring_Jimmy_Fallon "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon"), openly mocking the podcast, but Teddy is thrilled that his business is mentioned on Fallon's show. He writes Charles and Oliver a check for \$50,000 for more episodes. Charles notices that the check is drawn from an "Angel" account, making Teddy the black market dealer Tim was after. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 7 \| 7 \| "The Boy from 6B" \| [Cherien Dabis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherien_Dabis "Cherien Dabis") \| [Stephen Markley](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Markley "Stephen Markley") & [Ben Philippe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Philippe "Ben Philippe") \| September 28, 2021 (2021-09-28) \| 1DWB07 \| \| Teddy's son Theo spies on the trio and breaks in to take photos of their board of suspects, relaying to his father that the podcast is on to them, but Teddy dismisses the concerns. Charles and Mabel break into Teddy's apartment and discover a secret room of urns from a funeral home. Later, Oliver and Mabel leave to investigate the funeral home, while Charles has a date with Jan. At the funeral home, the two discover a secret room with jewelry. Theo is working there and stealing items off the bodies, and soon notices Oliver and Mabel. Flashbacks reveal that Theo had a crush on Zoe, who communicated with him in ASL. Theo saw Zoe stealing a ring from Teddy's apartment, which Teddy noticed during the New Year's Eve party. After an argument, Theo and Zoe got into a scuffle that led to Zoe falling off the roof by accident. Tim was the only witness, but an implied death threat from Teddy silenced him. Back in the present, Theo has kidnapped Oliver and Mabel, driving them to an unknown location, but not before they send texts to Charles telling him the password to Tim's phone might be "Theo". Note: There is only one audible dialogue throughout this episode. The rest of the scenes are either shown from Theo's perspective or present situations where the characters stay quiet. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 8 \| 8 \| "Fan Fiction" \| Cherien Dabis \| Matteo Borghese & Rob Turbovsky \| October 5, 2021 (2021-10-05) \| 1DWB08 \| \| Teddy returns Mabel and Oliver to the Arconia on the condition that they end the podcast and absolve the Dimas family of suspicion. Back at the building, Mabel and Oliver are swarmed by fans of the podcast calling themselves "the Arconiacs". Detective Williams suggests the trio release all their evidence on the podcast. Oscar shares that Tim already had Zoe's green ring when he died and was planning on using it as evidence, although its whereabouts are unknown. Oliver invites the Arconiacs to help the group solve Tim's murder in time for their abrupt series finale. Charles is distracted by Jan, so Mabel and Oliver force her out of the investigation. Jan returns to her apartment, where she finds a note on the door that reads: "I'm watching you". The podcast finale premieres, complete with evidence of the Dimases' crimes. Williams doubts the Dimases' involvement in the murder when Tim's autopsy reveals death by poisoning. Security footage also proves Teddy and Theo were not in the building at the time of Tim's murder. Charles visits Jan's apartment, where he finds her unconscious and bleeding. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 9 \| 9 \| "Double Time" \| Jamie Babbit \| John Hoffman & Kristin Newman \| October 12, 2021 (2021-10-12) \| 1DWB09 \| \| On their podcast, the trio retract their accusation of Teddy and Theo in Tim's murder. Jan survives her stabbing and Charles helps with her recovery. Charles's former stunt double, Sazz Pataki, shows up and immediately jumps into helping the trio investigate, much to the dismay of Charles and Jan. Later, a building meeting is called to address the podcast and the building votes to evict the trio, even after Charles says the podcast is done. Oliver and Mabel try to find a new lead to convince Charles to stay on the investigation and speculate that Tim might have had a secret girlfriend, a theory seemingly confirmed by Tim's neighbor. Charles goes to Jan's concert at Sazz's urging and sees a young female bassoonist who has replaced Jan at first chair. At the same time, Oliver and Mabel find a bassoon cleaner among Tim's stash of sex toys. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| 10 \| 10 \| "Open and Shut" \| Jamie Babbit \| John Hoffman & Rachel Burger \| October 19, 2021 (2021-10-19) \| 1DWB10 \| \| The trio realize that Jan is the murderer. Having been romantically involved with Tim, she killed him a day after they broke up. Mabel and Oliver break into Jan's apartment and find evidence, including a poison bottle, Zoe's ring, and a bloody knife she used to stab herself to deflect suspicion. As Charles confronts Jan, he realizes she has poisoned him. Jan tries to gas the whole building via the newly open fireplaces, but the trio run to the basement and stop it. Jan appears and threatens to shoot them. A scuffle ensues, ending with Mabel knocking Jan out with the emerald ring. Jan is arrested while Charles is treated by paramedics. Days later, as the trio celebrate, Mabel goes to get more champagne, and Oliver and Charles receive a mysterious text message telling them to leave the building. The scene that opened the series is repeated, as Oliver and Charles run to Mabel and find her hunched over Bunny's dead body, covered in blood. The trio is led out of the Arconia in handcuffs while the Arconia tenants and others, including Detective Williams, Oscar, and Cinda, watch. \| \| \| \| \| \| \| ## Production \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Only_Murders_in_the_Building_season_1&action=edit&section=6 "Edit section: Production")\] ### Development \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Only_Murders_in_the_Building_season_1&action=edit&section=7 "Edit section: Development")\] Co-creator and star [Steve Martin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Martin "Steve Martin") conceived of the idea for [Only Murders in the Building](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Only_Murders_in_the_Building "Only Murders in the Building") decades before its premiere.[\[1\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Only_Murders_in_the_Building_season_1#cite_note-:1-1) His original idea involved three elderly men who discover that they are all obsessed with solving crimes, but are too old and tired to go outside, so they decide to solve crimes that are only in the building.
