Unhappy pwr. strng. fluid in brake resevoir--help please!!

1990 300E 3.0

The brakes were not applied at all when the ATF was in there and it was in there for about fifteen minutes while I tore apart the kitchen trying to find the baster I removed it with. The cd manual has me scared out of my freakin skull that I may have to replace everything but the kitchen sink.

Just how screwed am I?
