Mid-way into Season 5, the podcasting trio of Charles, Oliver and Mabel may be no closer to finding out what happened to the Arconia’s dead doorman Lester or Nicky the mobster who was running a gaming parlour for the uber rich of New York in the building’s basement, but they may have stumbled upon who has a motive at the end of episode 5. Lester’s and Nicky’s widows, Lorraaine (Diane Wiest) and Sofia (Téa Leoni) are partners in crime for sure to get their hands on the money from the gambling den, but did they go as far as murder?

In season 5, the unfortunate victim was the building’s long-time doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), who is found dead in one of the fountains in the courtyard, shortly after Oliver’s wedding.

Lester had an ongoing agreement with Nicky (Bobby Cannavale), about allowing patrons of the latter’s velvet room into the Arconia and wanted out when he ended up dead. Then Nicky dies too and it seems that three people who were definitely in the room that night – Jay Pflug (Logan Lerman), Camilla White (Renee Zellwegger) and Jay Bash (Christoph Waltz) - may have been responsible. Or are they?
