Beth doesn't ask Nate what they were doing, what happened, because she doesn't think it's any of her business and she figures he's going to have to deal with enough of that anyway when it comes to the police. Hopefully they'll focus on the fire and not on the people in the fire, but Beth has to figure it wasn't all above board and a part of her is a little worried they're going to get into some kind of trouble.
But then, not much else is more trouble than the state Chloe is already in, it seems.
"Jeez, Nate," she says softly, then reaches to take his hand, leading him to some of the chairs to sit down. In his state, she figures he's just going to pace this room until someone shouts at him to chill out and she doesn't think that will lead anywhere good. Maybe she can't help him much, but she can at least keep him from going crazy until he's allowed to see Chloe, because she has to keep faith that she's going to be okay.
"You got her out, though," she says. "The doctors here are good, they'll be able to help her."
