Season 3 of Apple TV’s Loot ended with Molly getting not one but two proposals, but where will the show go from here?
During the Wednesday, December 10, finale, Molly (Maya Rudolph), Sofia (Michaela Jaé Rodriguez), Nicholas (Joel Kim Booster), Howard (Ron Funches), Arthur (Nat Faxon) and Maro (Zane Phillips) traveled together for John’s (Adam Scott) wedding to Luciana (D’Arcy Carden).
Molly tried to stop the ceremony — with help from Arthur — but ultimately, John left Luciana at the altar before anyone else could intervene. Luciana decided to still make the day a celebration, which inspired Molly’s ex Arthur to admit he still had feelings for her.
The couple decided to give their relationship another chance until Maro interrupted them. It turned out that a conversation between Arthur and Maro inspired the latter to propose. Arthur fought for Molly with a proposal of his own.
While Molly appeared conflicted by the decision, the Loot cast has strong feelings about who Molly should choose.
“I would love to see a version where Maro is planning a wedding to Molly,” Booster, 37, exclusively told Us Weekly. “That wedding would be bonkers. I think it would be insane and there’s a lot of comedy there.”

Booster, however, couldn’t deny that Molly and Arthur made more sense together.
“But as someone who has watched so many sitcoms over the course of my lifetime, I think if we stretch out Arthur and Molly’s will-they-won’t-they any more that people will hate us,” he noted. “People will be in the streets.”
Rudolph, 53, shared a different take on the situation with Us. “But what if she just took a lover while she was married — or just engaged to a fiancé?” she suggested. “Maybe she could get engaged to both and then just marry Arthur and just stay engaged to Maro because it’s fun.”
While speaking to Us, Funches, 42, also suggested not picking a side quite yet.
“I think she could do better than both of them? Personally as her cousin, I feel like Maro is just a boy toy,” he noted. “We get the jaws and the cheeks and the chest, but after that, what’s left? She could do better, personally. If anything, she should not get involved in another relationship and might just split her money up where she could just keep give it to her cousin.”
Rodriguez, 34, showed her support for Arthur, saying he’s “definitely” the right choice, ” It just goes without saying, but I have been fighting for this relationship as an audience member for a long time,” she said.
Elsewhere in the finale, Rodriguez’s character, Sofia, considered a major job change. She made a call that hinted at her decision but didn’t reveal whether she is leaving as the executive director of Molly’s foundation.
“As Michaela, I have so many creative ideas when it comes to Sofia alone. I think what Sofia wants is as bad as she wants to venture [out], she has a family that she’s obligated to,” she explained. “That’s the Wells Foundation. I feel like that’s where her heart lies.”
Rodriguez continued: “Sofia ventures off and does something where she’s possibly a part of the political space and she gets in there. Right now — where it ends off — it leaves that open. But she’s really obligated to what she started. I feel like she wouldn’t want to let that kind of, like, linger. I feel like she would want to stay right where she’s at.”
Loot is currently streaming on Apple TV.
