Also the moon would be tugged around a lot more than usual...
Best case scenario would be ejection into wildly different orbits for us and the moon, ideally with the Earth being flung out farther and the moon being swallowed whole.
Seems more likely we'd both turn to lava then hit each other though.
I tried using online Roche calculators but the numbers are too big and my brain is too small.
