Thanks.

So the subject can't be "the only one"?

Not in the small amount of text that you have presented. No. I don't see how that could be. "the only one" can be used as the subject of the whole sentence, however, but you have not presented a whole sentence. When you have more than one clause, you have more than one subject.
