I saw and heard the conference, and having seen the floorplan posted, MC was just across the hall from the parent's bedroom when she most likely saw the abductor for the second time. She obviously forgot what the abductor said when she tried to tell the parents the firs time.... soooooo why not wait for the perp to leave and them tell the parents immediately. She wasn't too afraid to make the first attempt. I only hope they have told her for future reference to tell them things immediately once things are safe, like when the perp had left. Two + hours is a lot of lost time.

She didn't lay in bed paralyzed with fear, she feigned sleep, that's cool, and she got up to tell the parent's, again this is not frozen with fear.

Maybe she heard the threat while she was on her way to the parents' room -- maybe that's when she became paralyzed with fear. I don't think we've been told when she heard the threat, just that she did hear it and that it frightened her into waiting before telling the parents.
