What happened at the end of Only Murders in the Building Season 4 Episode 7?
The episode kicks off with the crew fleeing the Arconia and heading to Charles’s sister Doreen’s house in Jersey. Along the way, Mabel calls Howard, asking him to investigate who’s cashing checks in Dudenoff’s name. As the group settles in at Doreen’s, unexpected guests begin arriving, including Loretta, who is seeking answers after receiving a breakup text from Oliver.
Loretta confronts Oliver, who confesses he almost proposed to her out of fear of losing her. Meanwhile, the group becomes entangled in solving the mystery surrounding Dudenoff’s forged signature and checks. Despite Mabel’s doubts, Loretta convinces her to use the actors Eva, Zach, and Eugene to aid in the investigation.
Surprisingly, the actors reveal key information. Zach informs the group that the person cashing Dudenoff’s checks has been after them since the beginning of their podcast. They believe the murder mystery goes all the way back to Season 1, with loose ends they failed to tie up. A major clue points to a note left on Oliver’s door: “End the podcast or I end you.” The message, written by a left-handed person, brings a revelation to Jan, who was initially suspected but is not left-handed.
Eugene then reminds everyone of another note found on Jan’s door that says, “I’m watching you.” This realization clicks for Charles, who deduces that Sazz was trying to warn them about something.

Howard, tasked with investigating the checks, heads to the bodega where Dudenoff’s checks have been cashed. Initially uncooperative, the bodega owner changes his tune after Howard bribes him with the promise of featuring his security cat on his podcast. As Howard examines the bodega’s ledgers, he discovers multiple forged signatures, indicating more than one person is involved in cashing the checks.
The big twist comes when Howard finds out there’s one phone number tied to all the forged signatures. Upon reviewing the security footage, he sees the Westies, a notorious group, are behind it. Howard calls the number, and Vince from the West Tower answers, pretending to be Dudenoff.
