Who hasn't been able to find their seat at the most inopportune moment? Everyone, that's who.

Hell, even Kirsten Dunst has been there. And, her scramble to find her seat was caught on television for all the world to see during the Emmys.

Dunst 'grammed a pic of herself and fiancé Jesse Plemons standing in the aisle searching for their seats while the audience was already seated.

"Couldn't find our seats," she wrote in an Instagram post, circling her in a screenshot of the live broadcast.

By the looks of their smiles, they weren't too fazed by it all.

We've all been there, Kirsten. We've all been there.
