The joke is that the husband and his friend went to Thailand and his friend transitioned. Now the old friend is “missing” and the husband is married to who that friend became.
I don’t know if I’m smart or not, but I think part of the joke is that the husband doesn’t recognize that his now-wife is his former best friend, and that unlikely circumstance kept me from understanding the joke even though I read the explanation. (Not the explanation in this thread but the more ambiguous one in the other thread.)

Thanks, I’m dumb and thought she murdered his friend.
This would also be a funny interpretation.
Not so dumb, given this is probably a screengrab from “you”, and this character would definitely have murdered his friend
I’m trans and thought she murdered his friend too lmao
I’m smart and I though she murdered his friend
Does it say something about me that I got the joke immediately?
Me too. Do you happen to be an engineer as well?
Erm… no, that can’t be it…
I’m drunk and I though she murdered his friend

Im norwegian, and I was a question mark until I read the comments which made me transition into an exclamation mark.
I thought this was some boomer shit about spouses not listening to each other?
So many different interpretations in the comments.
I thought it was just that he didn’t need a significant other because he was so close with his friend haha
