Only Murders has made a bit of a bad habit of spinning too many threads for its own good, and this season was no different. It's also revealed that Oliver has kept Bunny's parrot, growing fond of that damn ol' bird! Red Herrings But Will assures Oliver that he doesn't care about the genetics-of-it-all and that he only needs the dad he knew all along. Meanwhile, Oliver and his son, Will, have a heart-to-heart where Oliver almost comes clean about Teddy being his son's biological dad. The Brazzos reboot changes his character's arc (no more wheelchair or dementia) and Charles is so thrilled that he finally asks out his longtime crush and on-set makeup artist, Joy. The success of season 2 of their podcast (and their second solved murder) has also bolstered Charles's acting career.

Mabel is shown finally redecorating her Arconia residence, and has reconciled with Alice who is helping her paint over her now-iconic mural. Once Poppy and Kreps are arrested, the finale sweetly wraps up some storylines for our main trio. (Image credit: Patrick Harbron/Hulu) Happy Endings While it's not fully laid out in the finale, it's also implied that as Poppy grew more weary of working for Cinda, she turned her attention less on framing Mabel and gang and instead on taking down her boss, planting hints with the podcasters that Cinda may have been the criminal mastermind all along.

But when Mabel stumbled into the crime scene, Poppy decided to use her romantic relationship with Detective Kreps (whom she met in Chickasha) to frame the trio. Then, Becky used that disappearance as fodder for a job interview with Cinda, where she, now pretending to be "Poppy," pitched "All is Not OK in Oklahoma." Poppy landed the job only to realize that working with Cinda wasn't all it was cracked up to be when Cinda rebuffed her assistant's ideas for a new season on the "missing" artist Rose Cooper, Poppy devised the crime to kill Bunny and stage an intricate art-heist plot worthy of Cinda's attention. That's what gave her the idea to change her identity and stage her own disappearance. We learn through flashbacks that Becky Butler was a lonely resident of Chickasha, Oklahoma, who would escape from the sad realities of her day-to-day (sexually harassing boss, verbally abusive father) by listening to Cinda's podcast.
