I don't think it's so much "Touka needs to be rescued" so much as that Urie and Saiko have avoided confronting Mutsuki for months. They have ignored the Stabbity Elephant In The Room for too long, and brushed it under the rug as it became more obvious that Mutsuki was riding the crazy train all the way to Trainwreck Town.

Basically, I think this whole thing is less about Touka and more about a situation where they will have no choice but to finally confront things. It's been building since Rushima, ever since Mutsuki went stab-happy on Akira and the team basically covered it up. They've been ignoring the increasing warning signs, and avoiding confronting Mutsuki about things. It's gotta give, sooner or later.

So we've got Mutsuki completely off the reservation, trying to kill people allied with the CCG and working to save Tokyo. And risking millions of lives by possibly waking Dragon up early, which is something that can't be ignored and brushed under the rug.
