Knives Out hint suggests Benoit Blanc's story might end with him as the perpetrator

A 2025 Sesame Street parody briefly cast a Muppet Benoit Blanc as the pie‑eater, and the article argues that twist could point to a possible ending for the film detective in which he is revealed as the perpetrator.

A 2025 Sesame Street parody placed a Muppet version of Benoit Blanc at the centre of a short in which Cookie Monster's pie goes missing. The sketch ends with a berry stain revealing that Blanc's doppelganger also ate the pie. The article discusses that comedic twist and suggests it can be read as a narrative clue for how Benoit Blanc's story might conclude in the Knives Out films. It links the idea to Agatha Christie motifs and Rian Johnson's known influence from Christie. Known details: - The Sesame Street short featured Beignet Blanc investigating who ate Cookie Monster's triple‑berry pie, with Elmo, Zoe and Oscar the Grouch presented as suspects. - The sketch resolves as a shared misunderstanding, and a berry stain on Blanc's lapel exposes that he had also eaten the pie. - Daniel Craig is reported to have called the Sesame Street short "moving." - The article argues the parody's final twist — the detective being the perpetrator — suggests a possible franchise turn where Benoit Blanc investigates his own crime. - The piece references the Knives Out instalment Wake Up Dead Man and compares the proposed ending to Agatha Christie's Curtain and Hercule Poirot's closing story. Summary: The article frames the Sesame Street gag as more than a joke, treating its reveal of Blanc as a potential narrative model for the detective's ultimate fate in the films. It points to Christie‑era parallels and Rian Johnson's influences as supporting context. Undetermined at this time.
