It wasn't about the Star Spangled Banner!
Tonight could not possibly get worse. There's a good chance the show's going to end, and that will mean she and almost all of her friends are abruptly out of work. Harriet is not a pessimist, but she can't convince herself things could possibly be any worse. Then, if she were a pessimist, she'd be convinced it could and is going to get worse, but it's not the most optimistic thought she could be having.
However, when she got the call for cast and crew to come to the stage, and stepped out of the dressing room and into the hall, she wasn't expecting to step into a place she doesn't recognize instead of the familiar hallway.
She takes it rather calmly. Being convinced things can't possibly get worse will do that for you. She stands in the open doorway of the Inn, pursing her lips and looking around slowly. This doesn't look like the studio. Sure, they can get any set they want in there given enough time, but it's not exactly possible to fit a set of this size into the hallway.
On the other hand, she works with very talented and strange people, and you never know...
Still standing by the door, she raises her voice and says calmly, "Boys, do you really think this is the best time to be playing a practical joke?"
It has to be the boys. Things like this don't happen in the studio without one of the boys being involved.
