Hopefully your lawyer is awake, or at least is in the same time zone, has the document already drafted, your internet and printer on board is working, your swim across to get the signature goes well, then you can proceed.Before offering a tow, call in the lawyers, at the expense of those in peril. Have an agreement prepared with all possible exclusion of liability in your favor. If those in peril remain alive, have them sign it, notarized of course,after they get independent legal advice. Ignore bleating about unfair negotiating positions. If they won`t sign, leave them to their fate, whatever that may be.And, rest easy that you did your best.
I can see a few problems.
I would just help unless a professional organizations alternative was coming into view over the horizon
