As soon as the special started, there was one question on every Beyoncé fan's mind:
As you kept listening, you started to put two and two together, like:
Unless I'm misunderstanding, these lyrics gonna have folks looking at Jay-Z like... #LEMONADEpic.twitter.com/PjwFsZncVL

As you worked through the hurt and anger, you had to wonder, What is Jay Z doing right now?

Then, you had to wonder, Who is "Becky with the good hair"?

Then, you started thinking that maybe you owed Solange an apology:
This how Solange gonna be chilling listening to LEMONADE pic.twitter.com/jM4ix8c3sX

It's all coming full circle.... #Lemonade#solangepic.twitter.com/t6mVoY3IUv

But if Solange knew all along about Becky, did that mean that Beyoncé has been plotting this all along?
Now we know why Solange beat Jay Z up in the elevator, & why Beyonce looked sooo calm...😪 #Lemonade#Beckypic.twitter.com/4Ej4HLx4YL

But then...Beyoncé DIDN'T divorce Jay Z and you had to get it together.

There were A LOT of emotions for us all:
