Water Damage to Droid 4 Non Removable Battery

I dropped my Droid 4 in a clean toilet. The battery is not removable so I am concerned that waiting 2 or 3 days while it "drys out" in rice is a complete waste of time. I am hoping someone can tell me if there is any hope that it may function normally again or should I buy a new one. I'm not a patient person so waiting for it to dry out is sort of annoying.
