What to Expect from Only Murders in The Building Season 5 Episode 8: Cuckoo Chicks
Charles, Mabel, and Oliver must do their best to devise a plan to save the Arconia on Only Murders in the Building Season 5 Episode 8, “Cuckoo Chicks.”
Camila’s been buying up apartments in the Arconia with the end goal of turning the building into Camila’s Club, which will be New York’s first casino.
The contract for the casino has been what she, Jay, and Bash have been playing children’s games over, with the winner claiming a trophy (complete with a dismembered finger) and the bid.
At the end of Only Murders in the Building Season 5 Episode 7, “Silver Alert,” Camila won. Now, she just needs the Arconia.
While it’s unclear what our trio is planning, based on the photos, we know they recruit Detective Williams and Loretta to their cause. No matter what happens, it’s clear we’re in for a fun episode.
Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
