They begin exploring possible suspects, starting with Loretta. In a flashback, we see her completely bomb her table read and beg Oliver not to give up on her. It’s revealed that Ben wasn’t exactly a fan of her, calling her a “stinkerooni” and encouraging Oliver to give her the “booty.”

The group also investigates “TikTok-addicted starlet” Kimber (Ashley Park). Meanwhile, Mabel chases down a lead and is surprised when she comes face-to-face with Tobert (Jesse Williams) — who she was shown having an intimate dinner with — and Charles slams Oliver’s Broadway show as a “death trap.”
“Theater is all about choices,” Loretta says as we see a montage of various scenes, including Mabel bursting through the doors in a wedding dress, Charles punching Ben and the three friends screaming at something. “What you share and what you hide … those choices change everything.”
Mabel attempts to get information out of Kimber but hasn’t exactly mastered the art of keeping it cool. “Hey, Mama!” she says, as she attempts to speak to her girl to girl. “We’re like, uh, yaasss and work and slay over here, like … yeah.”

The trailer concludes with Uma (Jackie Hoffman) remarking snarkily in the elevator, “At least you had the consideration to keep the body out of the building this time.”
“You always know just what to say,” Charles sneers back.
