The first teaser trailer for Hulu's Only Murders in the Building season 4 shows Mabel (Selena Gomez), Charles (Steve Martin), and Oliver (Martin Short) continuing their investigation into the murder of Sazz (Jane Lynch).

They wonder if the killer's true target was Charles and the motive behind their act. The trailer shows Mabel receiving an email from a Hollywood studio expressing their desire to adapt the trio's podcast into a film. Soon, they catch a flight to Los Angeles.

A montage of clips depicts quick shots of a police raid, Mabel looking for clues with a magnifying glass, and a pig running in what looks like a hotel lobby. One scene showcases the three riding a car as Charles waves at strangers on the street, expecting to get recognized.

The final scene of the teaser trailer shows the three characters in what looks like a meeting with a group of Hollywood executives headed by Molly Shannon's character. As they are handed a contract to sign, Charles attempts to pass a note across the table to her. The note has the number four written on it, and Charles suggests:

"Four hundred... Four thousand... million?"

The trailer ends with Oliver suggesting "Five."

The synopsis for Only Murders in the Building season 4, as per Hulu, reads as follows:

"In Season 4 of Only Murders in the Building, our amateur podcasting trio wrestles with the shocking events at the end of Season 3 surrounding Charles’ stunt double & friend Sazz Pataki. Questioning whether she or Charles was the intended victim, their investigation leads them all the way to Los Angeles where a Hollywood studio is readying a film about the Only Murders podcast."
"As Charles, Oliver & Mabel race back to New York, they embark on an even more epic journey — traversing their building’s courtyard to delve into the twisted lives of the Arconia’s West Tower residents."
