Refrigerator compressor swap went sideways on a Friday afternoon

I was replacing a sealed system on a 5 year old Frigidaire in a customer's garage in Austin when I forgot to pull the vacuum long enough before opening the valves. Oil sprayed everywhere and the system pulled in moisture before I caught it. Do you redo the whole process or try a triple evacuation and hope for the best?

Yeah toss a new drier in and triple evac it, you'll be fine.
