That's a tough spot to be in. Probably better to say something just in case.

Actually, speaking up might just make things worse. Sometimes staying quiet avoids more trouble.

The whole "staying quiet avoids more trouble" thing used to be my go-to. I stuck with that for years until I saw how small issues blew up because no one said anything. Like, a friend was getting bullied at work, and everyone stayed quiet. It just got worse until someone finally spoke up.
