The leading ladies of the beloved series, Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer recently attended SXSW to present the final three episodes.

Variety described the concluding eps of the groundbreaking series as “tear-soaked” so we’re gonna wanna stock up on tissues ASAP.

“I feel really privileged to have had this experience. How much care is wild,” Glazer told the crowd, who gave the women a standing ovation when they took the stage.

Jacobson added that the end hasn’t quite hit them, as they only finished editing the finale on Monday.

The publication also reports that the room where the screening took place was covered with ‘strict warnings that NO SPOILERS could be shared from the final three episodes’ so unfortunately there aren’t many details out there, aside from the promise that there will be tears.

“It would be strangling to hold on to this beautiful, spontaneous world. To go beyond that would be perverting it,” Glazer said.

They went on to discuss the web series finale, which was developed for Comedy Central by executive producer Amy Poehler.

“Do you remember the web series finale, with Amy?” Glazer asked Jacobson. “She says [in that finale], ‘You have to take life by the balls.’ We wrote her saying what we needed to hear in real life. Now that the end is on the horizon, I am seeing this as art and not just the personal therapy vehicle is has been.”
