He's right to target her need to be involved in things to see that they're done right; if this is going to happen, she wants to play her part in doing it to be sure that it's as safe as it can be, even if 'as safe as it can be' is not very safe at all.

"Alright. Yes." She nearly says 'I'll see what I can do', but that's not enough for this, is it? It's a matter of doing everything or nothing; just thinking about it is not an option. So she just leaves it as a yes. She doesn't look happy about it, but nor does she look like she's going to change her mind. "I'll do it."
