Anna, a divorced woman in Canterbury Hill, hears strange voices in her house coming from the attic, making her believe in the existence of monsters. She often breaks chicken casserole dishes which she prepares, and passes out drunk on her sofa. One morning, from her window, she sees her handsome new neighbor, Neil, taking his daughter Emma to school. As Anna hallucinates the existence of her dead daughter, Elizabeth, she goes to school herself intending to drop Elizabeth there. She stands up a blind date arranged for her by her neighbor, Carol, and visits Elizabeth's grave to talk about her new neighbors, where the headstone reads, "If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever". The next day Emma sells some chocolates to Anna. Neil helps Anna after she faints, and finds out that she has an irrational fear of rain. Afterwards, she hallucinates having sex with him. The next day she grows close to them when they offer her dinner.

Anna is surprised and upset when she sees Neil's girlfriend, Lisa. On the telephone, Anna's therapist urges her to stop taking pills with wine, but Anna ignores this advice. She reveals that her then-husband, Douglas, took their daughter Elizabeth to an investigation in a prison, where Elizabeth was murdered and eaten by a prisoner. Anna's friend Sloane suggests that Anna should start painting again for Sloane's art gallery. Anna tries to paint but rips the painting with her palette knife. She overhears Carol talking about Anna's addictions and scares her with the knife. Anna feels upset and visits Elizabeth's grave—the headstone now reads, "In Heaven you can dance like no one's watching". She starts stalking Lisa on Instagram. She believes that Lisa has been cheating on Neil with a man named Rex, and connects with Rex on Instagram. Looking through her window, Anna witnesses Lisa being murdered in Neil's house. She tries to rush to Lisa's aid, but faints in the rain.

Detective Lane responds to Anna's 911 call and tells her that there is no evidence of a murder. Determined to solve the mystery herself, Anna breaks into Neil's house, where she finds one of Lisa's earrings. Neil discovers Anna and orders her to stay away. He claims that Lisa, a stewardess, has left for Seattle, and he shows Anna Lisa's texts. Despite Neil's awareness of Anna's drinking and hallucination problems, Emma sells chocolates to Anna. Anna joins a support group at Sloane's suggestion. She finds out at the airport that Lisa's airline does not fly to Seattle and reports her findings to Lane, who does not believe her. Lane reveals that she had been a junior detective investigating "Massacre Mike", the prisoner accused of killing and eating people. Lane regrets not killing him at the time, before Elizabeth became his victim. Anna receives a death threat, "Stop or UR next". While continuing to be suspicious about Neil, she uses Douglas's FBI credentials to request profiles of Lisa and Rex.

Anna examines Neil's past, learns that he was a suspect in the drowning of his wife Meredith, and visits Meredith's sister, Hillary. She also learns that Emma's teacher, Ms. Patrick, died while on a school field trip to a lighthouse, 12 days after Meredith's funeral. Anna visits the school and the lighthouse and finds out that Neil was a chaperone on the trip, which reinforces her suspicions. Upon returning, Anna sees a babysitter at Neil's house and Neil leaving with a large bag. Believing that the bag contains Lisa's body, she follows him. Neil catches her, explains that he is a ventriloquist and asks that she keep it a secret. When she returns home she gets a call from the FBI with information about Rex, who then suddenly appears at her house.

Rex threatens Anna and forces her to text her husband to run an errand to delay his arrival. Anna wants an explanation from Rex, who reveals that Lisa, whom he knows as Chastity, was a bartender at the club where he worked as a stripper. Chastity recruited Rex into a plan to defraud wealthy men, and Neil, a wealthy widower, was their latest target. Rex tried to back off when he learned that Neil has a daughter, but Chastity threatened to blame Rex for the plan. She abruptly cut off contact, making him suspect that Anna was involved. Neil gets a restraining order against Anna and Douglas arrives worried about her. Anna does not tell them about Rex and sees a woman in Douglas's car. After Anna tells Rex that she is divorced, the two feel sympathy for each other and have sex. Meanwhile, Chastity's body has been found in pieces.
6"Episode 6"Michael LehmannRachel Ramras & Hugh Davidson & Larry DorfJanuary 28, 2022 (2022-01-28)
The next morning the police arrest Rex for Chastity's murder. He insists on his innocence but Lane plays Anna a wiretapped recording in which Rex threatens to kill Chastity. Horrified, Anna tries to turn over a new leaf and gets rid of all of her wine and pills. She enjoys a manicure-pedicure with Sloane, who is being considered for a job at an art gallery in SoHo. Anna applies a dressing to an injured Buell's wound, then visits Elizabeth's grave on her birthday, where the stone now reads "There is no 'I' in Heaven". There, she finds a birthday card from Douglas and meets Neil and Emma, who have just attended Chastity's funeral. Back at home, Anna starts to paint but is interrupted by Lane, who tells her that Rex has been released after the police found the murder weapon - a palette knife identical to Anna's. The police search the house and find a portrait of Anna, Emma, and Neil labeled "The Perfect Family", which Anna does not remember painting, and Anna is arrested.
7"Episode 7"Michael LehmannRachel Ramras & Hugh Davidson & Larry DorfJanuary 28, 2022 (2022-01-28)
At the jail, Lane interrogates Anna, who has no memory of killing Chastity. Anna shares her history as a starving artist who found success after painting her dog as Mona Lisa and began painting other people's dogs into masterpieces. During her pregnancy, while she was confined to bed rest for three months, Douglas hired Buell to build a custom easel for her, and she started painting flower bouquets. After Anna's fingerprints are matched with those on the palette knife, she hallucinates stabbing Lisa and dreams of Douglas's second marriage to the woman she saw earlier with Douglas. The next day, Sloane pays Anna's bail with a $500,000 loan. Neil demands of Anna that she stay away. Anna calls her therapist, who is revealed to be Douglas. In her attic she discovers a ripped painting of Chastity and a whole living area; she realizes that Buell, who has been living there, could have murdered Chastity. From the window, Anna sees Buell, carrying a claw hammer and moving towards Neil's house.
8"Episode 8"Michael LehmannRachel Ramras & Hugh Davidson & Larry DorfJanuary 28, 2022 (2022-01-28)
Rushing after Buell to save Emma, Anna struggles with her fear in the rain. She unexpectedly finds a severely wounded Buell and Neil dead, murdered by Emma, the true mastermind. Anna now becomes Emma's target as Emma reveals that she stabbed her father because she disliked his ventriloquism. She stabbed Lisa for not buying chocolates from her, and framed Anna. She also killed her pregnant mother because she did not want a sibling, and her teacher, whom she disliked. After a bloody fight, Anna kills Emma in self-defense and Douglas arrives. At the hospital, Lane and Carol apologize to Anna for not believing her. Days later, Anna allows Buell, who survived, to continue living in her attic. Sloane hosts a successful exhibition and receives a job offer in New York. Douglas and Anna are reconciled in the rain, as he buys her painting. One year later, Anna, who has a newborn daughter with Douglas, takes a flight to New York to visit Sloane. She finds an apparently dead woman on the flight; the steward claims there has been no one as the body vanishes, leaving Anna to delve into another mystery.

While filming, hibiscus tea was used in place of red wine. [7] Bell and Ealy had a five-minute dance sequence which was cut from the release. Bell and Yett filmed much of their fight scene themselves, but they did rely on stunt doubles for certain scenes. The rain sequences required Bell to act in 50 °F (10 °C) temperature. While Bell said she has no idea about a sequel after the cliffhanger, the creators however, hinted that they are discussing for a possible sequel when they were asked about the casting of Close. [30] [31] [32] [33] [34]

Reception

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes , 54% of 57 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 5.9/10.The website's consensus reads: "If this sendup of literary potboilers suffers from being as glacially paced as its own whopper of a title, at least Kristen Bell makes for delightfully deadpan company." [44] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 49 out of 100 based on 21 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". [45] Chitra Ramaswamy, writing for The Guardian , gave the series two stars out of a possible five, criticizing the tonal confusion as "ludicrous at best and at worst disturbing" and summarizing it as "not amusing, just awful".
