We’ve all been there: flight delayed, too late to book a hotel. When actor couple Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard found themselves and their two sons—Lincoln, 9, and Delta, 8—stuck at Boston’s Logan Airport after a flight delay, they struck a (pricey) solution: a makeshift pillow fort on the floor of the terminal.

“After 7 hours of delays the flight was kicked to the next day all together. ZERO vacancies in the greater Boston area,” Shepard wrote in his Instagram video posted Wednesday.

“How much money have you spent on blankets and neck pillows?” Bell asks Shepard in the video. “Three hundred and fifty dollars,” he replied. After his wife confessed she was $253 deep in bedsheets, the couple concluded that “it’s $600 a night to stay at Boston Logan Airport.”

The "Good Place" actress took to her Instagram story, snapping a picture brushing her teeth in the airport bathroom. “We made quite a home here.”

Their adventures in homesteading were short lived, though: after countless rounds of Uno on the airport floor, the family of four was asked to vacate.

“I truly don’t mean this to be mean but I didn’t think this stuff happened to rich people,” said one fan in a comment that’s since garnered over three thousand likes. “I’m just picturing walking through the Boston airport and seeing Dax and KB and family SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR.” said another.

Our main question: Who’s the main linen purveyor in the Boston airport?
