I guess it would be different with all of us depending upon how much experience and how comfortable we are with our partner at the time. If my partner was someone which whom I do not work with often, I may go for help anyway. I don't like looking up at the undercarraige of a large public transportation vehicle.
Speaking of knowing your partner.

During the Nationals, working with different partners every day, you find that
a lot are not aware of different signals, ump to ump. Several times with
timing plays being involved, tapped my wrist [watch in pocket]. Once my
partner called time and reminded me these were not timed games. Geeze
