'Only Murders in the Building' Season 4 finale foreshadowed that Season 5 setup
Spoilers ahead, this is finale territory here. Only Murders in the Building can never let the residents of the Arconia live in peace. Rest in peace, certainly. In the Season 4 finale, which Mashable's Belen Edwards has unpacked in detail, the series dropped another murder on us in the final few minutes. After all, it's now tradition for the show's finales to tease a new chapter. SEE ALSO: 'Only Murders in the Building' Season 4 ending explained: Who killed Sazz and why? Sadly, the doomed resident this time is the Arconia's true heart: poor Lester (Teddy Coluca), the doorman. And his death is foreshadowed in the same episode. After Oliver (Martin Short) and Loretta's (Meryl Streep) gorgeous wedding in the Arconia courtyard, Oliver, Mabel (Selena Gomez), and Charles (Steve Martin) are wandering through the remaining decorations recording the final words of their podcast. It's then that they find Lester, murdered and lying in a fountain that's now filled with blood. "All he does is let in murderers!" Earlier in the episode, on their way to rescue Mabel from the killer, Charles and Oliver encounter Lester in the hallway; the doorman has news that Oliver's chuppah had arrived for the wedding ceremony. Flustered, Oliver tells him to handle it, but adds, "I trust you completely, but just know, if you get anything wrong, I will destroy you." When Charles protests, Oliver scoffs, "What?

Not just a longtime doorman, Lester has a major connection to the Arconia and the fountain he ends up dead in, telling Charles and Oliver he was married to his wife Lorraine in the courtyard in an evening ceremony "with just the stars and the fountain as our witness."
