How I Solved ´Only Murders in the Building´ in a Minute As an Office Fan?

The biggest tell only for The Office fans. The minute they introduced the murderer, I knew she did it. How? Easy, it all started with binge-watching The Office a hundred times…

Let’s get it straight. The first time I saw the murderer, I knew nothing.

But the first time Amy Ryan — the actress who plays the role — said her name was Jan, I knew. All I knew was that she was up to no good. And since it’s a series of crime-solving mysteries and true crime.

Well, it was obvious that she would be the wild card.

And what could be the wildest card in this situation? A bassoon player who is also a murderer named Jan.

How?

Have you ever seen an episode of The Office US? Or do you have a life? Tell me in the comments if you have, I want to know more about that.

You will learn, baby, you will learn!

Ok. I go into the details.

It all starts with Michael — played by Steve Carell. Michael’s big love is Holly — played by Amy Ryan. Michael and Holly are two cute weirdos. But Michael had an ex-girlfriend named Jan. Jan was a corporate psycho, pretty unstable but professional.

See the connection? Looks stable, but she is not.

People (actors, actresses, writers) from The Office are sometimes attached to that series just as much as their fans. So, the names actors and actresses choose in their new project can be a cute wink or nod for the fans.

That is what happened with Amy Ryan.

That’s why I feel like I’m on the top of the world.

Thanks for reading me!
