You weren't set up and the best thing for you to do is stay out of it. If someone says something to the receptionist, she can obviously defend herself. If you get involved, it will put you in a position of taking sides in something that doesn't concern you, which can harm the comraderie you have with everyone in the office. You can be loyal to your friend by continuing to be her friend, period.
