Today, we look at the Only Murders in the Building opening title Easter Egg for the fifth episode of Season 5, “Tongue Tied.”
In Pop Culture Easter Eggs, I share with you pop culture “easter eggs.” An easter egg is a joke/visual gag/homage/in-joke that is hidden in works that you are meant to find (just like an easter egg). They range from the not-so-obscure to the really obscure. So come check ’em all out and enjoy!
The excellent Hulu TV series, Only Murders in the Building, created by Steve Martin and John Hoffman and starring Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez, has a brilliant opening title sequence produced by Elastic, the same design firm that produced the iconic Game of Thrones opening credits (among many other credit sequences and other awesome design stuff).
The credits also include Easter Eggs hinting as to the plot of the episode in question.
Season 5 is currently airing, so I’ll share the easter egg for each episode after it airs.
Obviously, SPOILERS AHEAD!
TONGUE TIED
Charles and Sofia (Téa Leoni) go out on a date to a hibachi restaurant, and the waiters toss them shrimp and mushrooms into their mouths. This turns them on, and they end up making out.

The secondary easter egg is showing Howard walking LESTR (Logic-Engineered Secure Tenant Robot), the robot replacement for the murdered doorman of the Arconia, Lester…
