The Crime Scene: Who's Who in the Building?
Before we start pointing fingers, let's quickly recap who's who in the Arconia. Our trio of amateur detectives, Charles Haden-Savage, Oliver Putnam, and Mabel Mora, are our trusty narrators. Then, there's Ben Stiller's character, Ben**, who's found dead in the basement. And let's not forget the other residents, each with their own motives and secrets:
- Gideon (Nathan Lane), the condo board president with a mysterious past. - Jan (Amy Ryan), a love interest for Charles with a hidden agenda. - The Unsolved Mysteries Guy (Paul Rudd), a celebrity resident with a connection to Ben.
Theories Flying Around the Arconia
Theory 1: It Was Gideon All Along!
Some sleuths suspect Gideon, given his shady past and controlling nature. But could he really have killed Ben over a parking spot dispute? Let's not forget, Gideon was also a victim of the Arconia's mysterious happenings. Plus, he was seen on camera at the time of the murder, seemingly elsewhere. But is that evidence solid enough to clear his name?
Theory 2: Jan**'s Secret Life
Jan was seen arguing with Ben before his death, and she's been hiding her past as a con artist. But is she capable of murder? And why would she want Ben dead? Her motive seems flimsy, but could there be more to her story? Remember, even the nicest people can have dark secrets.
Theory 3: The Unsolved Mysteries Guy**'s Twisted Connection
The Unsolved Mysteries Guy (TMUG) had a connection to Ben through a cold case Ben was investigating. Could TMUG have killed Ben to protect his own secret? Or was Ben getting too close to the truth, and TMUG had to silence him? This theory has some serious potential, but is TMUG really the murderous type?
The Twist: Ben's Not Dead?
In a shocking turn of events, Ben might not be dead after all! Yes, you heard it right, folks. The season finale left us with a cliffhanger, showing Ben's hand moving. Could this be our big twist, or is it just a red herring to throw us off the scent? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure: Ben's not dead, or is he?
Conclusion: Who Dun It?
So, who killed Ben in 'Only Murders in the Building'? We still don't know for sure, but isn't that what makes this show so darn addictive? We'll have to wait for season 2 to find out the truth. Until then, keep your ears perked, your eyes peeled, and your podcasts ready. Because in the Arconia, anything can happen, and usually does.
