"Rose, you said you inadvertently spoiled their plans, so they're looking for payback. They can't find you, so they nabbed us to force you out."
Joyce fretted, "Are you in some sort of danger then? What should we do? Should we call the cops?"
Rosemary wanted to tell her that things had escalated beyond the point where a simple call to the police could fix everything. But some things were meant to be kept to oneself, so while tending to Joyce's knee wound, Rosemary reassured her, "Don't worry, this will all blow over soon."
"With Mr. McMillian around, there's nothing we can't handle. Let's just leave it to him!"
After her declaration, Joyce turned her gaze back to Rosemary. "Mr. McMillian seems to care about you a lot. He was wiping your hair the whole journey, afraid you'd catch a cold. He even wrapped you up in a blanket and had us flown to the nearest resort. He wanted you to take a hot shower. Why don't you go freshen up?"
