It would depend on how the plans were arranged. If you were invited by the birthday person or their spouse then I would divide the bill evenly among everyone. If it was yourself or the other couple that invited the birthday couple out I would divide it by 2 and treat them.

You excuse yourself to go to the bathroom , then crawl out the bathroom window and jump down to the street !! The others divide the bill by 3 !!

I would either:
A) talk to the birhtday persons spouse about paying their bill, if that’s what they want to do tell the waitor that the couples are seperate and they will split the check for you
B) buy a gift card for that restaurant and give it as a gift to the birthday person from the other couples
C)split it 50/50 one couple paying for the birthday person, the other paying for their spouse

If it were my friends we would probably divide the bill by two. Two of the three couples each pay half. The spouse of one having the birthday might offer to pay the tip.
