Only Murders in the Building Season 5 Reveals Nicky and Lester Murders Amid Finale Anticipation

Season 5 of "Only Murders in the Building" raises the stakes with two murders at the Arconia—longtime doorman Lester and gangster Nicky Caccimelio. It is revealed in Episode 9 that Lester killed Nicky using a piece of the building in a desperate attempt to save the Arconia, complicating the narrative by showing one victim committing murder. The mystery deepens as viewers consider who killed Lester, with clues pointing to Nicky's mob family, including his mother, Nonna, suggesting a potential retaliatory murder. Meanwhile, the season revisits Lester's past and brings back fan-favorite characters such as Theo and Teddy Dimas, enriching the storyline and connecting previous seasons. The Arconia's fate is also a central concern, with Camila White planning to transform the building's secret casino into a tourist attraction, prompting residents to unite and fight to save their home. The season finale, releasing on October 28, 2025, promises to conclude the intertwined mysteries and challenges faced by the trio and the building's residents.
