Did you ever have that one summer camp counselor who was so impressive and cool and had everything under control, and then one night they came back to the cabin and they'd clearly been drinking, and you were the only one awake and so they cried on your shoulder about what a mess their life was, and you realized they were just a college kid who shouldn't have had responsibility for you because they could barely take care of themself?
