As Charles, Oliver, and Mabel continue their investigation into who could have killed Sazz, Only Murders in the Building season 4 episode 8 titled Lifeboat pretty much leaves the main trio in limbo.

While they did manage to confirm that the Westies had nothing to do with Sazz's death, nor is Dudenoff involved in the case at all, the last episode has fans on the edge of their seat.

Dudenoff is no mastermind behind any killings at all, and they've already run out of leads, but the trio is still onto one thing: who really killed Sazz Pataki, then?

Well, quite surprisingly, their season finale clue comes from Helga (played by Alexandra Templer) when she revealed that Sazz had been "taking notes of the plot holes of their podcast" and that there's a fellow stuntman from Project Ronkonkoma who could answer all their questions.

Sazz calls this man her "protégé" until he "messed up pretty badly" and kept "harassing her."

"She said, 'He's dangerous, and he's gonna be the death of me.'" Helga explained, and the camera pans to Ben Glenroy’s stunt double, Glen Stubbins (played by Paul Rudd). Could he be the killer we've been looking for?
