Penelope thought Marguerite was just shell-shocked and couldn't snap out of it, so she quickly added, "Marguerite, I don't have time to explain everything! You need to head to the office right now..."

Before Penelope could finish, a resigned voice came from the other end: "Penelope, what did you just say? I didn't catch that!"
