Season 1 of Apple TV+‘s Your Friends & Neighbors has come to a close, but fret not because a second season is already on the way, and the finale teased as much in its final moments.

Jon Hamm‘s disgraced ex-hedge fund worker, Andrew “Coop” Cooper, had found himself at the center of a murder investigation after incriminating evidence was found around the home of his former fling, Sam (Olivia Munn). Her ex-husband, Paul (Jordan Gelber), had been found dead in the house while she was out of town and after Coop had broken in as he’d begun robbing his neighbors earlier in the season.

But the mystery behind Paul’s death was finally solved when an autopsy hinted that he’d been shot a few times after he’d died. After breaking into Sam’s house to search for clues, Coop uncovered a suicide note, which had been hidden away by Sam. It turned out that Paul had gone into the house alone and FaceTimed Sam for her to come back to him following their divorce.

When she refused, he pulled a gun on himself, shooting himself in the head. Leaving her children behind in Boston overnight, Sam drove back to New York and found Paul with the letter. She hid the letter because his life insurance policy had a suicide clause that would prevent her from receiving the payout she’d get otherwise.

Staging it to look like a murder, Sam left the scene and returned to her kids in Boston, leaving Coop to stumble across the confusing “crime” scene. Sam defended her actions by noting she allowed Paul to treat her in such a way for years on end, which made her feel entitled to the money, but Coop refused to take the fall for Paul’s death.

But what did Coop do by the end? He left his old boss standing on a tarmac waiting for him to show up as Coop broke into the man’s home to steal some priceless art.
