Ah, reality TV: where opportunists delight in exposing opportunism! It's kind of like the indie music scene.

Juno MacGuff: Wise move. I know this girl who had a huge crazy freakout because she took too many behavioral meds at once. She took off all her clothes and jumped into the fountain at Ridgedale Mall and she was like, Blaaaaah! I'm a kraken from the sea! Su-Chin: That was you.
