New suspects

In the latest episode of Only Murders in the Building's third season, titled "Grab Your Hankies," the murder mystery surrounding actor Ben Glenroy's death unfolds further, revealing a complex web of suspects. Meryl Streep's character, Loretta, emerges as a prime suspect due to her history of hostility with Ben. The episode explores potential suspects Tobert and Kimber, highlighting their characters' roles. As Mabel investigates, she encounters Tobert in Ben's penthouse, leading to intriguing chemistry between them. Tobert confesses to having crucial footage of Ben's final moments, implicating Kimber due to a tense conversation and jealousy. The episode artfully balances Loretta's audition and musical involvement, deepening character dynamics. The trio's usual banter takes a backseat, allowing individual pursuits and fresh dynamics. Despite departing from the high-energy premiere, the episode provides character development while maintaining entertainment value.
