The only way that arises is if they're both stuck in middle seats, which means sitting together was so unimportant that they waited until the last minute to get their seats. So fuck 'em.
And, greedy, if you're in that position, offer to switch with the guy right behind your wife, and then kick her seat for the whole flight, because you know it was her fault you got there late.
ETA: Curious story. On a recent trip we reserved window/aisle, hoping the center would be empty. So, apparently, did the couple on the other side of the aisle. Well, both middles got filled, by a dad and son. We immediately offered up the aisle to the son. Other couple did not offer up the aisle or the window to the dad. So he had to sit between them the whole flight. Unfortunately for them, the son was given an annoying electronic poker game to bide his time. I wish he had been continually talking to his dad. Or reaching over to poke him.
