In that case, just do as Mick says. "Get in, get done, get out."
Just to generate some discussion:

What if your partner is weak...do you still totally trust him? If you say yes, then is the "crew integrity" better because you trusted your partner...or is it better for the "crew integrity" to get it right, even though you had to call in your partner's area?

I agree with what you have stated z...just asking hypothetically.
