Women Catch Cheating Husbands Grace And Frankie Plot

Skip navigation!

They say life imitates art, and in one airport bar the art of choice was Grace and Frankie. A Twitter user overheard a conversation between two women who were traveling together to confirm suspicions that their husbands were cheating on them with each other — much like the plot of the hit Netflix series.

BJ Colangelo eavesdropped on the women as they met and discussed their plans and live-tweeted the conversation for all of our enjoyment. The tweets quickly went viral, with more than 25,000 likes as of writing.

There are two women next to me at the airport bar who are flying cross-country to ambush their husbands they think are sleeping together.

Not only were the women flying to Chicago together to catch their husbands in the act, but they were also meeting for the first time, which seems to be the start of an adorable friendship regardless of their husbands' behavior.

The women have never met until this moment. "Hopefully I'll gain a sister in you if I lose my husband."

While they chastised their partners, they also (thankfully) avoided slipping into homophobia. One of the women was quick to point out that it was the infidelity she was angry about, and not simply the idea of her husband being gay.

"Why can't they be honest? There's no need for cockamamie stories and secrets. I don't care if there gay. I care they lie." ?

The women also doled out some pretty impressive life advice:

One of the women has an extreme couponer's amount of gum in her purse. "You can't yell at someone with bad breath. My dad taught me that."

And at one point, they even broke the fourth wall and acknowledged how similar their lives are to the plot of Grace and Frankie.

Shot Lady: "There's a Netflix show about this." SHE SAID IT! SHE FUCKING SAID IT. GUM LADY HAS NEVER SEEN IT. HOLY FUCKING SHIT.

And then they switched to talking about cute animal videos, because who doesn't need some adorable hippos in their life when their relationship is falling apart?

"Jane Fonda is on it." "Oh, I don't like her." ... "Have you seen this video of a baby hippo?"

The women continued to encourage one another as they prepared to head to their terminal and board their flight. This just might be one of the purest and most supportive friendships the internet has ever seen.

Shot Lady: "Our husbands are fucking, or we're both insane. Either way, were going to be okay. I promise." ADOPT ME SHOT LADY.

They then left the bar, leaving Colangelo and pretty much all of Twitter wondering what would actually happen when they arrived in Chicago and found their husbands, who Colangelo called out with a warning.

If your names are Jeffrey and and Richard and you're on a "business trip" in Chicago...your wives are coming for you. And they've bonded.

Whether or not the women ended up catching their husbands in the act, they definitely found the start of a beautiful friendship. We'll drink to that any day.
