6513"The Alternative"Marta KauffmanMarta Kauffman & Howard J. MorrisJanuary 18, 2019 (2019-01-18)
In the wake of their fight, Grace and Frankie separately yet simultaneously imagine what their lives would have been like had they not moved in together after the events of three years before. Frankie, having suffered three strokes, would still be living with newlyweds Robert and Sol – who are secretly planning on moving to a new home without her. Grace would be coming to town with her harmless and vacuous second husband Jack Patterson (George Hamilton) after extensive cosmetic facial surgery for Brianna's 40th birthday. After the party completely falls apart, Grace and Frankie argue about a samovar that is now their friend Babe's urn, as well as Grace's inability to go to her funeral because she could not face Robert. The ladies would realize that Babe left the samovar to both of them because she knew how much the two meant to each other. This provides the reality check Grace and Frankie need; they make amends and vow their friendship to each other. Frankie is overjoyed and ready to return to their beach house, but is shocked when Grace reveals that she had married Nick the night before.
