TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation addresses the options available for a friend who is on a 30-day extension of a 45-day stamp in Thailand and needs to extend their stay by another two months. Suggestions include doing a border run to a neighboring country like Laos, where they can apply for a 60-day tourist visa at the Thai embassy. It is recommended that this process may require an overnight stay, depending on the specifics of the application. Various comments provide advice on the logistics of traveling to obtain another visa.

They will need to leave the country and re-enter for a new 45 days. Not many options besides that
