Even if someone (cough, Ser Wesley) dies, when you speak to Mercedes before turning in the quest to Aldous she will still gain some affinity. Presumably you gain more if you saved everyone. I used to agonize about saving the poor bastard but the timing is so short and the angle of attack too awkward to make it feel like anything more than luck. Nowadays I just stop briefly to press F to pay respects to Ser Wesley before moving on with the quest.
