At the end of season three of Hulu’s Emmy Award-winning TV megahit Only Murders in the Building, Mabel’s future prospects look bleak and uncertain. Selena Gomez’s character, Mabel Mora, had lost her apartment lease in the Arconia Hotel, she was not in a serious relationship, she was homeless, childless, and had no career goals beyond spending her rapidly diminishing youth (Mable has turned 30) with two eccentric senior citizen fellow travelers in the hotel, Charles Haden-Savage (Steve Martin) and Oliver Putnam (Martin Short)solving murder cases and running a murder/mystery podcast.
In this self-reflexive mood, Mable concludes that her prospects are not what she envisioned. She confides her feelings of malaise to her crime-solving partners. She is seriously thinking of chucking it all and starting fresh all over again.
