Thank God. Some nerd must've been using it.
Hi, everybody.
You know how when you go on Hulu to watch Family Guy,
you got to scroll past a bunch of little boxes?
Well, it turns out, those are other TV shows.
TV shows that I'd never heard of
until they step up onstage to accept their Emmy,
for which we were not nominated.
Well, tonight, we're gonna click on three of them.
This first one has Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez.
So, if you were born in 1950 or 2005,
you're gonna see your favorite actor.
Now, please enjoy Only Murders in the Building.

My goodness, what happened here?
Sorry, folks, there was an only murder in this building.
Ooh, a murder. I've got goosebumps.
- Me, too. - Yeah, those are shingles.
You're 70. I told you to get the shot, you dope.
Well, looks like they don't want people meddling in there.

No, no, no, no, that's for your time, not our time.
He had one inside.

Do you think it was someone in the building?
I think I know who did it.
It must've been my creepy next-door neighbor, Jeff.
Dahmer? Jeffy D.? Really? But he's so cool.
You don't understand,
I can hear screams coming from his apartment.
Look, Glenda, we appreciate your concern,
but Jeff is just a harmless weirdo.
So what if he watches a lot of horror movies
and cooks a lot of pork chops?
We all picked up weird hobbies over the pandemic.
I'm telling you, there's something bad
going on in apartment 2B.
Uh-huh. Look, thanks for stopping by,

All right, our neighbor was murdered in cold blood,

There's no time to waste.
We must decide what our podcast voices are going to be.
I was thinking of...

Yeah, I thought I could speak way too close to the microphone

[smacks lips] Mm.
I can be the female on the podcast

Do they always have one of those?
[laughs] That's hilarious.
- [laughs] - We're good to go.
- Where do we start? - Well, wasn't Glenda
trying to tell us something about Jeff?
Maybe we should follow up on that.
Jeffrey Dahmer? Of course. He always has great ideas.
That's right. He sent that great email
about how to get blood stains out of your power tools.
Let's see what he thinks.
Hi. Oh, uh, sorry.
I was... making pork chops.
Hey, Jeff. So sorry to bug you,
but you haven't heard anything about Tim's murder, have you?
What...? Tim's dead?
But he was so delicious. I mean, young.
I mean, I-I haven't heard anything.
Aw, nuts. Well, we're worried the killer might strike again,
so here's a list of vulnerable people
in the building who live alone.
Would you mind keeping an eye on them?
A lot of them don't have families.
If something happened to them, they would not be missed.
Uh, yeah, sure.
[laughs] I will definitely do something like that.
Say, anybody have a spare bone saw charger I could borrow?
Ugh, man, those things are so easy to lose.
If I had a nickel, you know?
I do. I know about nickels.
Uh, I see your naked roommate
is trying to climb out the window.
Looks like you've got your hands full.
If you hear anything, give us a ring-a-ding-ding, eh?
Are you out of your minds? Jeffrey is obviously the killer.
Didn't you see the blood on his shirt?
And look at the garbage he left in the hallway.
- [flies buzzing] - [person coughs]
So he's a little messy. That's no reason to point fingers.
I don't believe this.
All the clues are right in front of you. Can't you see?
You know what I see? I see a hostile neighbor
who's emotionally unstable and prone to outbursts.
Why, that fits the profile of a murderer.
[grunting]
[scoffs] Look how many people are out here in bathrobes.
I know it's the middle of the night,
but, come on, make an effort.
You're making a mistake.
The murderer is obviously Jeffrey Dahmer,
and he'll kill again.

quizzes and diagnosis.

I helped set up the projector.
Our mission is to develop a machine
that can run diagnostic tests
with just one drop of blood.
I got it to work with two drops.
Two drops is garbage. You're fired.
Get out of my office.
Now, I don't have to tell you
just how groundbreaking it is for a woman

This isn't CVS, where they throw you out

Can you get it working by tomorrow?
Honestly, I'm a little over my head here.
I applied for a receptionist job,

- What are we gonna do? - We just need to get
to the next round of funding.
The machine doesn't have to really work,
they just have to think it works.

Oh, I'm so sorry, then just say that.
All right, good news, while you two were messing around,
I tried all the food.
And I'm going to give a great review to The Bear.
Okay, time-out. What is "The Bear"?
Wha...? Is this restaurant "The Bear"?
- Am I "The Bear"? - I-I thought the idea was
restaurant ownership, you know, more generally, is "a bear."
Oh, okay, all right, that makes sense.
Chris, you've seen the show.
Who or what is "The Bear"?
Well, your last name is "Berzatto,"
so "bear."
Okay, so it is me. I'm Bear.
People call me "The Bear"?
Yeah, they kind of don't though.
But in season two, there's a restaurant
also called "The Bear."
All right, so I'm feeling like you have not answered
my question at all, but just so I'm clear:
I'm the main guy, right?
I-I'm the guy who sort of looks like a hot Gene Wilder?
- Oh, does he? - Yeah. Yeah, let's pull him up.
See, look at that, can't you see,

[Cleveland] That guy your mom dated too soon after the divorce.
[Joe] The driver's ed instructor you've heard whispers about.
[Chris] He's definitely burned his hand on a Benihana grill.
[Lois] The reason nine women have just broken their silenc.
[Stewie] He looks like he belongs in the front

[Joe] He looks like a guy who boards in Group 3
even though he's in Group 8.
[Lois] He looks like a guy who's not allowed to talk
to his wife's sister.
[Peter] Or a male nurse that interrupts

Maybe this, maybe this is "The Bear."
I don't get why you're dead-set against doing this show.
What are you afraid of?
