Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker says they're trying to contain an outbreak while Peg is taking a monkey to the airport. The complaint makes those actions sound opposed: one tries to keep trouble contained, while the other risks carrying it elsewhere. The wildly specific accusation gives the frustration comic force.
